Referral Notification Settings

Referrals are consistently the #1 source of top-performing employees. Our most recent update helps ensure employee referrals don’t slip through the cracks.

Busy recruiters and hiring managers usually don’t want to be interrupted all the time… but they do want to know about new referrals, so they can follow up and give them the red carpet treatment.

Now people can control when they are notified about new referrals:

Employee Referral Notification Settings

Here are the details for each option:

  • My job alerts: Sends notifications based on the candidate alert settings from your my jobs list.
  • My job alerts + unassigned candidates: Sends notifications based on the candidate alert settings from your my jobs list AND for candidates added with no job assignment.
  • All referrals for my jobs: Sends a notification for every referral for jobs on your my jobs list independent of your candidate alert settings (overrides my jobs settings)
  • All referrals for my jobs + unassigned candidates: Sends a notification for every referral for jobs on your my jobs list (overrides my jobs settings) AND for candidates added with no job assignment.
  • All referrals: Sends a notification for every referral added to your account independent of all other notification settings (overrides my jobs settings)

We’ve also updated everyone’s default referral notification settings as follows:

  • Admins & Owners: All referrals for my jobs + unassigned candidates
  • Extended users: All referrals for my jobs
  • Standard & Limited: My Job Alerts (no change and cannot be edited)

If this is too noisy, you can change your referral alert setting here. If you don’t want any emails at all just select the “my job alerts” option and make sure you have immediate candidate alerts turned off for all of your jobs.

We added the word “Referral” and the name of the referrer to all candidate notification alerts to make referrals easier to identify:
