Employee Referral Program

Do you know an outstanding individual who would be a great fit for the CHKD team?

If you know someone who you think would be a great addition to our organization, you could be eligible for a referral bonus up to $5,000 if you refer them for employment and they are hired.

All you have to do is make sure your candidate writes your name down when submitting their application. The question can be found under the additional info section of the application.

There’s no limit to the number of referrals, so start referring people today! Research has shown that new hires who come to an organization through employee referrals are often excellent contributors, have a greater level of engagement, and stay with the company longer.

That’s where you come in!

The purpose of the CHKD Employee Referral Program is to partner with our most valuable resource – YOU! You know our culture, know the type of person that would succeed here, and most of all, you know people. This program allows us to share in the success of identifying the right talent for the right job with your help.
