The ability to access job openings & make referrals anytime and from any location is bound to give the program a tangible advantage. The less cumbersome the referring process is, the more the probability of the program to be effectively used by employees. Picture this - If an employee happens to meet a candidate at a social or professional event who he thinks makes the cut for an open position and if the referral process enables him to immediately make a referral, the chances that the employee will do so is far higher, than if he has to remember to go back to work & make the referral by going through reams of web pages.

A program that lends itself to easy use also holds within itself the capability of expansion of the scope beyond employees to other business constituents, namely ex-employees, vendors or even clients. It will help the cause of referrals if more people are included into the ambit of the program. Here are some thoughts on increasing the scope of the program: • Allow Managers & HR teams to participate • Expand scope of the program to non employees, namely business constituents

such as vendors, customers or even previous employees • Asking new hires on on-boarding for referrals is also a great way to pass on the

culture of the company that places great emphasis on employee referrals, to new recruits.

An employee referral program that is integrated with social media features, renders it easy for employees to share open positions with their social networks with their mobile devices wherever they are. In addition to mobile recruiting, it is imperative that the referrals are supported on social networking sites such as facebook mobile. Since a large percentage of the use of such social networking sites are on the move and a number of job opportunities are shared on these sites, using mobile devices is a good source of job related information.

However, it is ironical that despite these advantages, of the Fortune 500 Companies, only 20% are mobile optimized from the recruiting standpoint. Mobile Employee Referral programs are no longer a fancy addendum but an integral part of recruiting success.
