Are there any consequences if a person I referred declines the referral?
We use an internal referrer rating which increases and decreases based on feedback on the profiles you refer and whether candidates accept your referrals.
Before referring, you should inform and obtain consent from the person you are about to refer. If a referred person declines being referred, your internal rating will decrease, eventually leading to referrals you make being penalized, severely decreasing the chance of employers to see your referrals.
We also have a zero-tolerance approach towards spamming and referring candidates without their consent.
