Referring candidates on Mafiro is a great way to connect candidates with amazing companies, while also earning rewards for your hard work. To maximize your success, we&rsquo;ve put together some tips to make sure your referrals stand out and get hired.&nbsp;
<ol>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Submit a strong CV with detailed experience
</li>
</ol>
A well-structured CV can make or break a candidate&rsquo;s chances. Make sure the information includes details like:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Clear job history with relevant experience.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
&nbsp;Key contributions to previous roles or projects.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Primary skills - if there are many listed, ask the candidate to highlight the most relevant ones;
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Level of expertise in each skill.
</li>
</ul>
Employers need to quickly assess whether the candidate matches the role, so providing detailed information will help the employer understand better the candidate&rsquo;s experience.&nbsp;
<ol start="2">
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Add observations about your candidates
</li>
</ol>
Go beyond the CV to give hiring managers a complete picture of the candidate. In the &ldquo;Other Observations&rdquo; section, add key insights that can make a difference, such as:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Extra details: when can they start, if they align to the employer&rsquo;s budget, whether they prefer an employment contract or a B2B collaboration, etc.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Achievements &amp; unique qualities - some stories are not written in a CV, but they are definitely worth sharing. For example, we&rsquo;ve seen candidates who built a karting car from scratch by themselves, just out of curiosity; or someone has made an app for a charity just to help them raise funds, and the list can go on.
</li>
</ul>
Any initiative, side project, or contribution that reflects their skills, passion, and character will give the employer a valuable insight.&nbsp;
<ol start="3">
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Consistency Matters - submit candidates regularly
</li>
</ol>
The more candidates you refer, the better your chances of success. Companies on Mafiro do not see who makes the referral or how many candidates an individual referrer submits. This means you have the freedom to submit multiple candidates without limitations, increasing the likelihood that at least one will be hired.
Think of it as increasing your odds&mdash;if you submit only one candidate, there&rsquo;s just one chance for success. But by referring multiple relevant candidates, you boost the likelihood that at least one will be a great fit and get hired.
<ol start="4">
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Focus on 2-3 roles at a time.
</li>
</ol>
There are plenty of active roles on Mafiro, but focusing on just a few at a time can significantly increase your success rate. Instead of trying to cover as many roles as possible, prioritize 2-3 roles where you have strong candidates.
Our data shows that the ones who focus their efforts on specific roles see higher placement rates than those who submit candidates for too many jobs at once.
Of course, if you know a candidate who fits a different role, feel free to refer them! But when sourcing actively, narrowing your focus can help you submit higher-quality referrals and improve your chances of success.

Make sure candidates accept the GDPR consent email from Mafiro 
</li>
</ol>
Mafiro sends an automatic GDPR consent email to every candidate added to the platform. Their application cannot be processed until they accept it. Many candidates overlook this email, so make sure to:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Inform them that they&rsquo;ll receive a GDPR email.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Remind them to check their inbox (and spam folder) and accept it.
</li>
</ul>
GDPR compliance is a legal requirement, and without their consent, their referral will not move forward.
