QUICKSCAN

Clear insight into your referral recruitment potential

​

Almost every organization today does something with referral recruitment. Sometimes this takes the form of a policy or referral bonus, sometimes a one-off initiative alongside the regular recruitment process. At the same time, many organizations sense that referral recruitment has real potential, but are still searching for where and how to start in a thoughtful, realistic way.

​

The Referral Quickscan is designed for organizations that want a clear view of their real opportunities first, before investing time, money, and energy in expensive campaigns, incentives, or software.

Whether you are just starting with referral recruitment, or already have experience but see limited results, this quickscan provides clarity, focus, and direction.

ANALYSIS

What makes this quickscan different

 

This Referral Quickscan deliberately takes a broader view, because referral recruitment only becomes sustainable when leadership, communication, and everyday practice are aligned.

 

Michael Boud analyses, among other things:

  • how referral recruitment is currently organised,

  • how the employer story is told and shared,

  • which target groups are realistically reachable through employees 

  • and how region, labour market dynamics, and competition influence this.

 

This results in a realistic and well-founded view of what is already working and where opportunities remain untapped.

No sales pitch. A content-driven reality check.

​​

The Referral Quickscan is not an implementation programme or a packaged sales pitch, but an independent analysis answering one core question: does referral recruitment have real potential here, and where is a logical starting point?

​

For organisations just starting out, the quickscan clarifies opportunities and prerequisites. For those with experience, it shows where progress stalls and which choices are needed to move forward.

​

Many organisations use the quickscan as:

  • input for executive or board-level decisions,

  • a starting point for a broader referral or ambassador culture approach.

REALITY CHECK

PERSONALISED REPORT

What you receive

​

After completing the quickscan, you receive:

​

  1. A personalised report.
    With clear observations and concrete recommendations, tailored to your organisation, target groups, and labour market context.

  2. Insight into your referral potential
    Not in abstract percentages, but in practical, evidence-based terms: where momentum exists, where it does not and why.

  3. A strategy session with Michael Boud
    Where the findings are explained and translated into logical next steps, aligned with the phase your organisation is in. No obligation, no pressure.

Who is this quickscan for?

 

The Referral Quickscan is designed for organisations that:

  • want to start with referral recruitment, but not based on gut feeling,

  • or already have experience with referrals and see limited results,

  • understand that referral is not an HR trick or a one-off campaign,

  • and want clear, content-driven insight before scaling or investing.
     

Typical requesters include HR directors, recruitment leads, communication leaders, and interim professionals who want a well-founded conversation with their organisation or client.
