More than a hire only bonus
Reward employees for introducing strong candidates, not only for the final hire.
Traditional programs can make employees wait months for recognition and give no credit when a good referral progresses but another candidate is hired. Milestone rewards create earlier feedback, make quality visible and encourage employees to keep referring relevant people.
Recognize participation
Give employees a reason to contribute
Award a configurable number of points when a valid referral enters the program, so participation is acknowledged immediately.
Reward candidate quality
Add points as referrals advance
Recognize shortlisted, interviewed and final round candidates even when the eventual hiring outcome depends on factors outside the employee’s control.
Sustain engagement
Create a visible progress loop
Let employees follow referral status, points and program standings through a transparent referral experience.
A loyalty style model for employee referrals
Configure the incentives that fit each role, program and hiring stage.
Like a well designed rewards program, CVViZ can recognize several valuable actions instead of offering value only at the end. Employers define the milestones and point values. Employees see how a relevant referral progresses.
01
Program and reward configuration
Create different programs for urgent roles, graduate hiring, specialist positions or other hiring needs, with the points or rewards appropriate to each program.

- Configurable points by milestone

02
Employee participation and visibility
Give employees a clear place to refer people, view current and past referrals, follow status and see the points or bonuses earned under the configured program.
- Employee referral portal
- Referral and status visibility
- Points, rewards and leaderboards
- Program analytics for talent teams

Configurable milestone rewards
Give employees meaningful credit as strong referrals move forward.

- Hire points or bonus where configured
