Cornerstone Employee Referrals, Powered by ERIN

Cornerstone powers enterprise talent management. ERIN powers the modern employee referral layer enterprises actually want, mobile, AI-driven, and automated end-to-end.

01The problem

Why Cornerstone's native referrals aren't enough

Enterprise UX, not employee UX

Cornerstone's referral capability sits inside an HR-admin product, most employees won't find it, let alone use it.

No mobile-first referral app

Distributed and frontline workforces can't realistically refer through Cornerstone on their phone.

No AI matching

Cornerstone can't tell each employee who in their network matches which open roles. ERIN does.

02How it works

Cornerstone stays your system of record. ERIN handles the employee referral experience and pushes everything back automatically.
