WIP for Employers: Faster, Smarter Hiring via Trusted Referrals
π§ Why WIP?
Hiring mistakes are expensive. WIP (Work Identity Protocol) is a referral-based recruitment platform built to reduce your time-to-hire and improve candidate quality using:
- Trusted referrals only
- Financial and behavioral incentives
- Transparent rewards and identity verification
π How WIP Works
- You post a job (or send us the JDβweβll post it)
- You set the referral bounty
- WIP network refers candidates
- Referrers pass KYC
- Stake $20+ per referral (to ensure quality)
- You interview + hire
- You pay bounty ONLY if hire happens
- We refund if hire fails probation (max 90 days)
