$1000 reward for referring my replacement

Jun 30, 2008 18:23

Let's align your incentives with mine: if you refer a qualified admin candidate to me, and he/she gets hired and takes my role, I will pay you a $1000 bounty.

Parsing the language above:

Refer. You or the candidate should send their resume to jessef(at)google(dot)com. If the candidate emails me directly, they should mention your name.

Qualified. For my role, we are looking for someone with at least two years' experience, preferably as an admin, but we'll also consider a background in sales, advertising, or some other fast-paced, frequently shifting environment. The role is based at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, California. Further general details on the job description (but ignore the 4 years requirement).

Takes my role. To qualify for the bounty, the candidate must take the position I'm leaving behind, so that after a short transition period I can move on to my next role as an Associate Product Marketing Manager. If the candidate takes another position, whether as an admin (perhaps a role where experience is less of an issue) or otherwise, I'll still be grateful and take you out to a pretty nice dinner or the long-distance equivalent.

$1000 bounty. Cash, check, or in-kind goods or services, whatever you prefer. Why $1000? That's roughly what my referral bonus becomes after taxes and whatnot.

Further questions? Leave a comment or contact me directly as appropriate.

Thanks in advance for your help. I hope you don't find this little contest to be crass; it's just that it's so hard to find the right candidate, and I have substantial financial and personal interest in transitioning to my new role sooner rather than later, so I'm willing to try something new!
