How peer referrals work

  • Peer Referrals is a referral-tracking tool, not a full applicant tracking system.

  • Caregivers submit referral information through Zingage.

  • Your administrative team reviews and updates each referral on the agency's application tracking system as the candidate moves through the hiring process.

  • Once the candidate is hired and their data is tracked through Zingage, the Zingage system will automatically reward the caregiver's points each referral milestone.

Create a job

  • Go to Workflows > Peer Referrals.

  • Create an active job and enter the role details.

  • Add the referral bonus structure and any milestone requirements.

  • Publish the job so caregivers can submit referrals.

Review a referral

  • Open the referral record.

  • Review the referring caregiver and candidate information.

  • Update the candidate's stage as appropriate.

  • Record hiring information when the candidate joins the agency.

Configure milestone rewards

  • Create milestones based on your agency's program, such as hire, 30 days, 90 days, or hours worked.

  • Enter the reward amount for each milestone.

  • Confirm that employment and hours data are available and accurate before relying on automated milestones.

Important considerations

  • Only referrals submitted and tracked through Zingage can be monitored and awarded automatically.

  • Keep job statuses and candidate stages current.

  • Review referral settings before changing a live program because changes will affect referrals already in progress.
