How to choose the right referral software for your organization

Referral recruitment is one of the most effective ways to find great talent. But which software supports your referral program best?

Here are four common options:

​

1. Employee Advocacy Tools
Great for boosting employer branding. Employees can easily share vacancies on social media, but there are no built-in reward systems.

​

2 & 3. Standard Referral Software & ATS Plugins
These tools automate the referral process and reward employees after a successful hire. They support easy job sharing and offer basic analytics.

​

4. Gamification Platforms
Add a fun, competitive layer with points and rewards. Perfect for driving ongoing engagement and participation. Also includes easy vacancy sharing.​

 

The right software makes referrals easier, faster, and more fun for employees.
