In this brief conversation, Hishem Azzouz and Speaker B discuss the critical elements that drive successful candidate referrals in recruitment. They emphasize that consistently asking for referrals is essential and has been formalized as a weekly KPI within their organization. Additionally, they highlight the role of marketing communications that outline the referral scheme and showcase recent payout examples to motivate participants. The core message is that proactive solicitation, measurable tracking, and transparent reward communication are key to a thriving referral program.

What are some of the things that have directly impacted like candidate referrals?
So, A, first and foremost, you have to always ask. People don't ask enough. And now it's almost like a KPI for us. In fact, it is. Every week it's monitored. It's that important. It's become a KPI within our business. And then there's marketing information around it. You know, here's our referral scheme. Oh, and by the way, here's 3 or 4 payments we paid out last week to people who did the same thing. But most importantly, you've always got to be asking. Always.
