Many companies have ways for employees to refer new people into the recruiting process. It’s usually as easy as entering a name and email. Then when you apply Recruiting will see it comes with a referral from one or more existing employees. Some companies will also give employees who refer someone that then is hired a bonus - have seen this be $1500 to perhaps $5000 in U.S. places. Referral processes may ask whether you know the person in some non-professional capacity, or whether you have direct professional working experience with the person. There’s usually more weight assigned to the latter case. Applicants who have multiple referrals really stand out; applicants who have referrals from people in my team (versus the wider >100k person company) are also extra interesting.
