Reward the Journey, Boost Retention
From Application to Hire and Beyond
Go Beyond the "I Don't Know Anyone" Mindset
Traditional employee referral programs are like a one-hit wonder. They rely solely on a single bonus for a successful hire, leaving a vast majority of your workforce on the sidelines.
Why? Because most employees think, "I don't know anyone who'd be a good fit."
But here's the secret: Every employee knows someone who could be a great addition to your team. They just need a little nudge to get involved.
That's where WorkTaps and micro-bonuses come in.
What are Micro-bonuses?
They're small, incremental rewards that incentivize employees throughout the referral process – not just for a successful hire. Think of them as little sparks that ignite a whole chain reaction of engagement:
- Application Bonus: Motivates employees to share open positions with their network, even if they're not sure if anyone is a perfect fit.
- Interview Bonus: Encourages employees to follow up and ensure their referrals complete the interview process, reducing no-show rates.
- Retention Bonus: Rewards employees for checking in on their newly hired friends, fostering a sense of camaraderie and boosting retention rates.
The Psychology of Micro-bonuses
Microbonuses transform the "I don't know anyone" mindset into "Maybe I can get my friend to work here, why not try?" They create a sense of ownership and involvement for every employee, regardless of their network.
This shift in thinking has a powerful impact:
- More Referrals: Employees who might have hesitated before are now motivated to share opportunities with their friends and family.
- Higher Quality Referrals: Employees are more likely to refer candidates they believe will truly succeed and stay with the company.
- Increased Engagement: Microbonuses create a culture of participation and shared success, boosting overall morale and productivity.
- Improved Retention: The retention bonus creates a buddy system that helps new hires feel welcome and supported, leading to higher retention rates.
