Referrals
Get referred, without the awkward ask.
Ask people who work at a company to refer you. Your request is short and clear, they can answer in a tap, and you can follow every step.
Ask for a referral
Four steps. No cold messages.
Pick a job
Choose a job on See, paste a link from the company careers page, or share a job page to See from Safari.
Choose who to ask
Pick a verified employee, or send it to everyone at the company who refers. The first to answer takes it.
Write a short pitch
Say why you fit in a few sentences. See helps you shape it, and adds a short note your referrer can paste into their company form.
Follow along
See when your request is viewed, accepted and referred. Then let them know how it went, and say thanks.

Fair for everyone
Simple rules that keep referrals worth something.
Never pay for a referral
Offering or asking for money is not allowed. See blocks messages that try, like "split the bonus".
Limits that make each ask count
Send 5 new requests a week and 2 per company. If nobody answers in 7 days, you get that request back.
Verified referrers only
Referrers prove they work at the company with their work email, and confirm it again every 90 days.

Questions
About referrals.
Is a referral a guarantee?
No. A referral helps your application get noticed, but the company still makes the decision.
What if I already applied?
Tell us when you ask. Some companies only count a referral if it comes before you apply, so it is worth asking first.
Does anyone get paid for referrals on See?
See never pays for referrals, and nobody on See may charge for one. Many companies pay their own employees a referral bonus, and that stays between them and their employer.
What if nobody at the company is on See yet?
Invite someone you know there by email. Once they verify their work email, they can take your request.
Why can I only send a few requests a week?
So every request gets real attention. You can send 5 new requests a week, 2 to any one company. If a request expires without an answer, you get it back.
