Allow users to refer candidates to your Opportunity
This article applies to Team and Legacy editions.
User Referrals grant existing users the ability to refer others to your Community or Project. You control which teams can refer, how many referrals they have available, and the email message included in a referral. The Opportunity associated with the Referral dictates which team the referred users end up on. You can then track and give credit to those users who helped expand your program!
To create a User Referral from your Recruiting tool:
- Hover over your Opportunity and + icon
- Select User Referrals
- Complete Source Name, Referral Teams, Referral Interface, and set or create an Email Template
- Note that the team(s) selected pertain to which teams can refer others. The destination team(s) associated with the referred accounts is controlled by the Opportunity that the Referral Source facilitates.
- Clicking Next will complete the User Referral Source
For Teams with access to the Referral Source, the “Refer a Friend” link is available in the left-hand menu. Once referred, invitees are sent an email invitation containing a unique, unshareable link that’s tied to that email address and one referral will be consumed.
