Learn about How Bonuses are Paid

Overview

In this article, users will learn how and when bonuses are paid.

1. Check if Bonus is Valid

For a bonus to be paid out, a candidate must have referral status "Hired" and bonus status "Eligible" or "Pending".

1.1.  Referral Status

From your dashboard, select "My Referrals" (Fig. 1a).

Next, verify that your candidate's status under "My Referrals" is "Hired" (Fig. 1b).

If your candidate's referral status is not listed as "Hired" in ERIN, you will not be paid a bonus for that referral. 

To troubleshoot why a referred candidate isn't in your "My Referrals" page, go to Why is my Referral Not Shown in ERIN?

1.2.  Bonus Status

From your dashboard, select "My Bonuses" (Fig. 1c).

2.2.  Eligible

If your bonus status is "Eligible", the date your bonus will be paid out should be listed in your company's bonus policy (Fig. 2b). To troubleshoot why you haven't received your bonus yet, go to Why Haven't I Received My Eligible Bonus?

2.3.  Paid

If your bonus status is "Paid", you should have received your bonus by now (Fig. 2c). If your bonus status is "Paid" in ERIN yet you haven't received payment, contact your company's Recruitment or Talent Acquisition team to verify your payroll information.
