Just stumbled across another useful site, JobReferrals.in which is dedicated to Employee Referrals. So how does this work

Job Holders

• Post internal vacancies in your teams , organization
• Chose the best candidates from the job seeking members database
• Collect resumes from employee profiles and refer them to your organization
• Help your organization recruit best people and get rewarded with referral bonus!

Job Seekers

• Browse job vacancies in organizations of your choice
• Browse through the profiles of site members of the organization of your choice
• Send them your resumes and get referred internally
• Read reviews of the organizations , and make an informed decision regarding a career move
• Read domain reviews, and find out what people have to say about a particular career stream they have been in.

Organizations

• Organizations can advertise for open positions & they will be indicated as a featured item in the vacancies section. As a premium member posting, it will carry more credibility and visibility than the user submitted vacancies.

What I don’t like:

1. Usability
2. Google Advertisements which interupt healthy browsing
3. PR / Marketing – I hope my post helps

JobReferrals might not directly monetize you directly like how frontFoot & NDTVJobs, but you surely can earn you referral Bonus from your employer…

NDTVJobs in collaboration with its Partner YelloJobs, have also started an online referral program where employers can offer cash rewards to those who refer posted jobs to their contacts / network. This concept was introduced right after techTribe had annonced frontFoot.

This surelyremarks a new start of Social Networking at its Best. The Introduction of Referral Programs combined with Social bookmarking has immense potential as companies in India already believe in Employee Referral Programs. This is truely a start to “Recruitment 2.0″

So, How Does this Work… Simple

Now you can become a recruiter too

techTribe, an Indian Web 2.0 company has now stepped into the e-recruitment bandwagon. Today, the company did announce frontFoot, claimed to be a patent pending concept which is the first of the kind; where recruiting seasoned professionals are done purely based on professional references & professional networks.

So how does this work?

The frontFoot Proces:

• Companies post high-paying job opportunities on techTribe
• techTribe members can refer (frontFoot) other members as candidates for the posted jobs
• If the company hires a candidate that was referred, the person who made the referral is rewarded financially
• The person responsible for bringing the hired candidate into the techTribe network is also rewarded

The reward can go upto 250 $ (upto 10,000 INR) which surely does sound an interesting way to connect and encourage referrals . This concept will take some time to catch fire on, but could be a potential threat to Consulting Firms; who now headhunt through referrals / people networks. The concept will be tested by the kind of positions that get showcased and the number of talented users the network can attract.

frontFoot will surely position techTribe as a true �Career Networking Platform�. My well wishes to Rohit Agarwal for his valiant effort, thou I feel that this concept is a takeoff from Zubka!
