Referral Program Policy
​
Policy Objective: The Referral Program is designed to encourage our current staff members of SPARC to refer qualified candidates for employment at our organization. In recognition of their efforts, staff members will receive a bonus for each successful referral that leads to a new hire or contract worker who actively contributes to a minimum of three programs and/or secures full-time employment.
Eligibility: All full-time and active contract staff members of SPARC are eligible to participate in the Referral Program.
Referral Process:
-
Staff members who wish to participate in the referral program must complete and submit a Referral Form. This form can be found on SPARC’s website under get involved.
-
The Referral Form should include the name, contact information, and resume (if available) of the candidate being referred.
-
A SPARC administrator will review the referral and determine if the candidate meets the minimum qualifications for the position. If the candidate is already in the recruitment process or has been referred by someone else, the referrer will not be eligible for a bonus.
-
If the referred candidate is eligible, they will be invited to meet with a SPARC representative for further evaluation.
Bonus Structure:

Upon the successful hiring of a referred candidate, the referring staff member will be eligible to receive a referral bonus.
