We're always looking for new colleagues!
Maybe a friend of yours is looking for a new job? Is he or she talented and motivated? And you think he or she is a perfect match for NEW WORK SE?
If that’s the case – check the open positions and refer your friend to us.
How to refer someone.
Talk to your former colleagues or family and friends about the opportunities at NEW WORK SE.
At this point our recruiters take over and check if your referral matches the position you suggested them for. They will inform your candidate about the next steps.
If your referral is a good fit and subsequently hired, you’re eligible for a referral bonus. 🥳

I referred someone to HR. What are the next steps?
The respective recruiter will review the application. Due to the high number of applications we receive and due to data protection, we can’t update you on every step of the process. But we’ll let you know once we've made a final decision.
I want to refer someone but they already applied.
Sorry, but we can’t count this as a referral.
I want to recommend someone but they already had their first interview.
Sorry, it’s too late for a referral. Thanks for your commitment, but we can’t count it as a referral.
I want to refer someone who already applied of their own accord some time ago. Can I recommend them again?
Yes. If the original application is longer than 6 months ago, just give it another go. People develop and maybe we just didn’t have the right position before. Please do however point out in your referral that the person already applied some time ago.
My referral told me that they’re in contact with a New Work (active) recruiter. Can I refer that person anyway?
First come, first serve. Unfortunately, we can’t count this a referral.
I and another employee recommended the same person. Who will get the bonus?
Again: First come, first serve. The first person to submit the candidate’s CV (inbox date counts) will get the referral bonus if the person is hired.
I referred someone who has been hired for a different position to the one for which I referred them. Am I still entitled to a referral bonus for that person?
Yes. If we hire a candidate for another position, you will still receive a referral bonus.
I referred someone who has been hired. When will I receive my bonus?
🇩🇪 🇦🇹
Bonuses will be paid out at the end of the month in which your referral starts at NEW WORK SE. This will take place automatically and you don’t need to take any action for this to happen.
🇪🇸 🇵🇹
Half of the bonus will be paid at the end of the month in which your referral starts, the other half after the internal probation period.
I referred someone but left before my referral started. Am I still entitled to a bonus?
🇩🇪🇦🇹
Yes. If your referral starts after you left the company, you’re an alumni and will receive an alumni bonus (€2,000).
🇪🇸🇵🇹
Sorry, after leaving the company, you are no longer entitled to receive the referral bonus.
I referred someone who was rejected. If at some point in the future, NEW WORK SE hires that person – do I get a referral bonus for that hire?
When referring someone to New Work, you “own” them for 6 months after we end the process. The official end of the process is when we send out a rejection. After these 6 months have passed, you lose your “ownership” and would need to refer the candidate again in order to be eligible for a referral bonus.
Who pays the bonus?
The bonus is paid by the cost center the referral was made for.
Who can participate in the referral programme?
Everyone working for the NEW WORK SE can join the referral programme. Even peoplemanager and HR are now able to refer candidates. However, for directors and the recruiting and active sourcing departments, there will be a rule that only one bonus of up to 3k can be obtained per year. And of course you can not receive a bonus, if your referral is for a position, where you are involved in the hiring process anyway.
