UST, a leading digital technology solution provider, introduced a streamlined approach to increase referral rates and make better quality hires. Through analysis, the company found that referrals sourced from their internal talent pool were generally higher performers and stayed at the organization longer. To maximize this, UST introduced a reward program, referred to as 'Refer a Buddy', that simplified the referral process and made it more transparent. The firm also leveraged Talent Acquisition Suite (TAS), specifically its 'Referrals' module, to organize and manage the process efficiently. By doing so, UST reduced the time taken to make job offers from 97 to 37 days, significantly increased referral hires, and also improved overall employee satisfaction.
