iCIMS Employee Referrals, Powered by ERIN

iCIMS handles the recruiter workflow. ERIN delivers the employee experience, a mobile referral app, AI-matched candidates from employee networks, and bonus automation that flows back into iCIMS without manual rekeying.

01The problem

Why iCIMS's native referrals aren't enough

Native referrals are a form, not a program

iCIMS' built-in referral form is functional but lacks campaigns, gamification, and the mobile-first experience employees expect.

Bonus tracking is manual

There's no automated way to track eligibility windows, milestone payouts, or duplicate referrals across iCIMS.

No referral marketing engine

Recruitment marketing teams have no way to launch branded campaigns, run contests, or target specific employee segments.

02How it works

ERIN + iCIMS, integrated end-to-end

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