Do you get compensated for taking interviews or contributing to hiring in any way?
It takes up so much of my time and I feel like there should be some perks to wasting your time on people with more yoe and less knowledge
Some companies pay referral bonuses if the person referred by you gets selected and continues working for a minimum period as per policy
Referral bonus is quite common in big orgs, I know about it. Wanted to know about active contribution such as taking interviews or designing assignments

Two parts to it -
-
Hiring for your own team - don’t think so as it is in your interest to fill that role.
-
Hiring for the wider org - in case you are a part of the panel for company fit/ wider hiring initiative. Yes
(*How you are compensated is altogether a different conversation)
For managerial roles, it’s a KRA or annual goal to hire resources, train them to strengthen team. There are no perks for interviews.
Before Covid, I was rostered in a walk-in interview on a Saturday, only thing I got was a pizza and a compensatory off.
