Turn your employees into recruitment ambassadors
At Nalios, we are convinced of one thing: when
you trust your teams, you can also
trust their network.
Employees often know talented people
who share the
same values, culture and energy as the company.
Employee referrals are a great way to find talented
people who fit the company culture.
This is where Odoo's Referrals application comes in: a simple, fun and motivating tool to encourage internal recruitment and turn your employees into true recruitment ambassadors.
A motivating way to recommend
The Recommendations application enables each employee to suggest candidates from their network for open positions within the company.
The operation is simple :
- The employee consults the offers available in Odoo,
- He can share the advertisement directly with his contacts (via a link, email or social media).
- And if one of their contacts applies, the referral link is automatically saved.
This makes it easy to track where the application came from and to reward the employee who made the recommendation if the candidate is hired.
Cooperation integrated into the recruitment process
When a candidate is added to the Recruitment application, it is possible to directly indicate the employee who recommended them.
Thus, as soon as the person is hired, the system can automatically award points to the referring employee (depending on the company's configuration).
This native integration between Recommendations and Recruitment makes tracking smooth and transparent :
- No more need for manual tables,
- No more forgotten rewards,
And genuine traceability of co-optations.
Rewards for employees
To make the system even more engaging, Odoo allows points to be linked to rewards.
Each employee has a personal profile in the Recommendations application, where they can :
- Track points earned,
- See the progress of your candidates,
- And discover the gifts or benefits available.
The rewards can be configured according to your company's HR policy :
- Gift voucher,
- Additional day off,
- Complimentary team meal,
- Or any other initiative suited to your culture.
It is a simple and motivating way to reward employees for their contribution to the company's growth.
A win-win strategy for everyone
Setting up a referral programme with Odoo is much more than just a recruitment tool :
- It is a confidence booster: you show your employees that you value their judgement,
- This saves time and improves quality: applications are more targeted and reliable.
- It is a way of strengthening corporate culture: newcomers integrate better when they are recommended by colleagues.
- Above all, it is an integrated solution: everything is done in Odoo, from candidate tracking to the final reward.
Testimonial: my HR experience with Odoo Recommendations
As HR Manager, I strongly believe in the potential of the teams in place.
When you recruit passionate and committed individuals, they often know other people who are similar to them.
With the Recommendations application, we have implemented a simple and motivating system: each employee can propose a candidate from within the application and track the progress of their recommendation.
If the person is recruited, they earn points and can exchange them for a reward : a gift voucher, a day off, or another surprise chosen by the company.
What I appreciate most is that everything is integrated: you can directly indicate on the candidate's file who recommended them, and all follow-up is done automatically.
The result : greater commitment, a better recruitment atmosphere and, above all, more relevant and humane hiring practices.
In summary
The Recommendations application is much more than a tool: it is a participatory recruitment strategy that showcases your employees and their networks.
- Encourage your employees to recommend talent,
- Reward their involvement,
- And turn your company into a community that attracts the right candidates.
