Overview
Employees can refer candidates by sharing a job link through Wizehire, and referrals are automatically tracked in your dashboard.
Referred candidates are tagged, making it easy to identify who referred them and prioritize strong applicants.
Why employee referrals matter

higher quality
more likely to accept offers
more likely to stay long-term
This can lead to faster hiring and better retention.

💡 Helpful note: If the employee isn’t listed, you may be prompted to add them as a team member first.
What happens next

Once submitted, they will appear in your job dashboard.
How to track referrals
referred candidates are labeled with a Referral tag
