    Referring to totally unrelated teams and org will undermine our credibility

    Because it doesn't matter unless the referral comes from someone who personally know the hiring manager.

    There are 2 options for an internal referral once you give me your resume and the position you are targeting:

    1. I upload it to our internal system and no one ever looks at it again.
    2. I reach out to the HM and share your resume with them while making a case for why they should look at it.

    While I am happy to do 1 for complete strangers on the internet, it is completely useless and not worth anyoneโ€™s time. I am sure you can appreciate how doing 2 for complete strangers is unrealistic.

    The tiny chance of a referral bonus is not worth reputational damage from referring someone who is a total dud.

    You people are fucking crazy. Itโ€™s not like a cookie box that I have a thousand cookies and you can have one. A referral takes work by hand.

    Iโ€™ve gotten 4 people jobs by doing referrals the correct way.
