Hi McK folks, I am trying to get a double referral for a BA role. Is that going to increase my chances for an interview ? Second referral will be from a seasoned manager

I don’t think you can be double referred in the system

I had two people reach out for me and it seemed to work well, when the recruiter reached out to schedule the interview she mentioned that she had seen notes from both people. After that it doesn’t seem to matter at all

You can have 2 referrals bud one will be enough. If you have a good supporter they’ll find out who’s the right recruiter and pin them down.

Yeah there’s also a difference between an official referral in the system and someone telling the recruiter “you need to interview this person.” But frankly if the person is actually pounding the table for you, you’ll get an interview without a second person. You don’t need an EM to be your referrer.
