How the Referral Network Works
Find a Job
Job seeker finds a role at a company where an ERN employee works.
Request Referral
Candidate uses ERN credits to send a referral request to the employee.
Employee Reviews
Employee reviews the resume and decides whether to refer — completely their choice.
Referral Submitted
If accepted, the employee refers the candidate. Resume goes to the right hands.
⚡ Referrals increase the chances of getting noticed by recruiters — but do not guarantee hiring. The final decision always rests with the company.

Network Guidelines
ERN is built on trust. These rules protect both sides.
Referrals are always voluntary
No employee is ever pressured to refer. They review and decide based on their own professional judgment.
No job guarantee — ever
A referral improves visibility, not certainty. The final hiring decision belongs entirely to the company.
Profile verification required
Employees verify their company affiliation via work email OTP and KYC before they can receive requests.
Match quality over quantity
Candidates should only request referrals for roles they genuinely qualify for. Irrelevant requests get declined — and that's expected.
Referral requests are only visible to the company employee
When a candidate sends a referral request, only the specific employee it is addressed to can see it. Requests are never shared publicly or forwarded to the company's HR directly.
Credits can be refunded
If an employee declines within the eligible window, candidates can apply for a credit refund through the issue system.
