Asked referral from a guy and this is his reply

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Googler here. Does anyone want referrals to Google?

I arranged employee referrals from Microsoft , Visa , Arcesium , Walmart but no response came not even rejection its almost 1 month.
Is there any other trend prevailing in market?
Or more precisely Am I approaching in the wrong way?

It seems employee referrals are not working these days

It’s pretty well known that Microsoft referrals are useless

Recently I was talking to a girl who was working a startup in BLR. She left the startup with some horrendous experiences. This startup was working from a startup hostel in BLR. Things she told me shook me. She was dating the founder.

So this founder who claims to be on his 2nd startup dates his own employees and then blackmails them.
The average age of his employees is 24. All these girls that he dates are not above 23/24

Apparently this guy has 2 court cases against him. One for fraud and one for a rape case. Both of them are not easily found online. He uses VC money to keep in under the hood.

The fraud case is about his first startup which was a stolen idea apparently. 

This guy’s whole life is fake.
He claims to be an IIT Madras dropout, but he's from some local college. 

There are rumours that one of the girls he dated tried to kill herself because he allegedly filmed them.

He also does not pay salaries for months to his employees but compensates by giving them expensive gifts.

He claims his parents are IAS officers but we checked and they are not. 

His last startup was around around AUTH and current one is around Fintech

Girls and boys stay away from working with such shady startups.

Interesting, the whole story is about unknown man with unknown startup. Thanks for such an insightful post.

I mean its so hard to get a referral or is it just me? Basically,

1. Everyone on linkden is basically an influencer, though with a legit experience and ofcourse technical skills, its more like everyone is just there to flaunt and I practically see no one actually being helped or helping.

2. Only on a personal level, I guess having met them, do people take you seriously, that still is a low probability.

So my question is, if you were an average Joe in this job market, how would you approach people to have them actually land an interview let alone be selected?

Where do you guys get referrals from?

Here in the grapevine app itself i got several referrals. All the interviews I am attending now are firm referrals. Whether I clear the interview or not is second. But I could see many folks coming up to help by giving referrals. If we get selected its win-win situation we get the job and they get money too.

So.. Around 2 years back I got my first payout of 50k as a referral bonus for a friend I referred to my company. 

Around same time.. My team had a few positions.. So i put it on linkedin and got a decent response.. Got another referral.. 

Next year.. I decided to scale it.. I started putting multiple posts on linkedin for positions across my company and started streaming the responses on google sheet. Having a big linkedin network of 20k helped. 

This year I scaled it to 4L a year... But then it all stopped after one fine day there was a HR circular to not undertake commercial level sourcing of profiles on linkedin.. And only refer ppl I know. 

It's a different matter that I could manage to source almost 20-40x more relevant profiles as compared to my HRs even with their third party agencies. More than half of my team members are my referrals :). 


While scaling this hustle.. This is what I learnt. 

1) You will get lots of spam.. I feel sry for some candidates .. But sometime even civil grads will apply for semiconductor jobs. 

2) Better to invite applications using a google form with proper filters.. Only serious ppl will apply. 

3) Do not refer everyone.. Reduce your effort and only refer candidates who have a chance. 

4) Engage with candidates, followup after interviews. 

5) Do not trust your employer will automatically honor referral payouts if you don't track.. I literally lost more than 2L coz of inefficient referral tracking system. 

6) Control your greed.. Even if you scale up.. Limit yourself to a decent no.. Say 2L a year.. Referral policy is for company's benifit.. They will shut you down one way or another if they find you are gaining. 

7) Handling it at scale is a lot of work.

What Using/misusing employee referral policy has taught me.

Never heard using referal as a side hustle. Great job

Referral codes with job job roles

Technical Support

The number of influencers trying to sell their courses on coding and systems design has just went nuts. Anyone and everyone who is working in FAANG / MAANG/ WTFAANG seems to be selling dreams to everyone that this is how you get into and sustain into large scale companies.

Once these engineers join after clearing interviews (which are more or less a repeat of the same questions being asked for a thousand times), they find it hard to scale themselves to solve the real world challenges that are thrown at them. And then the complaining starts from all the angles.

For the sake of it, FAANG and all other such top tier companies are not gonna help you once your mental peace if completely f…ed up. 

If you think you are genuinely interested in solving issues at scale, spend some real time learning the basics, how the day to day software you use works, spend some time actually researching and banging your head trying to grasp how things are, because most of the challenging issues you are gonna face in your upcoming career won’t have youtube videos available to explain you why they happen.

Stop filling the pockets of influencers to teach you things which you should be putting efforts to learn by exploring yourself.

Finance Operations

1. They are f**king everywhere and way too many ads.
2. They give shitty logic to lure people into their shitty courses.
3. Any experienced developer watching their ads knows they are creating fomo out of nothing.

Do people featuring in the Scaler ads know that everyone hates their faces/voice ?
