1. Intro

Thank you for participating in the employee referral recruitment benchmarking 2025 report!

In this study, we aim to measure how successful organisations are using an employee referral programme and uncover the secrets behind it. We are also interested in why organisations are struggling to make employee referrals work so we can provide actionable strategies to improve.

At the same time, we are trying to understand the impact employee referrals have on deeper TA goals such as time to hire, retention rates, quality of applications & hire, sourcing hard to fill roles & reduction in cost of hire.

We would greatly appreciate your participation in this benchmarking report.

Please note that all your answers will be held confidentially and data shall only be included anonymously within the report.

By participating, you will receive a complimentary report with the final conclusions in a whitepaper at the end of this year.

Have a great day and hope to see you soon!

Kind regards,

Michael Boud & Sam Davies
