Partner programme
Refer a client to ProDevs. Earn 10% of the profit on every successful hire they make.
You don’t need to be a recruiter, just someone with the right network. Introduce companies that need tech talent, or tech professionals looking for global opportunities.
01 Two kinds of referral
One link. Two kinds of introduction.
Your referral link works for a company that wants to hire and for a professional who wants to be hired. Here is how the two differ.
Client referral
- Who you refer
- A company that needs to hire tech talent.
- What you do
- Share your referral link, or introduce the company to ProDevs.
- What happens next
- ProDevs handles the hiring. For most roles the company sees a first shortlist within 48 hours.
- What you earn
- 10% of the profit on every successful hire made by a client you refer. No caps, no hidden terms.
Talent referral
- Who you refer
- A tech professional looking for global opportunities.
- What you do
- Share the same referral link.
- What happens next
- ProDevs vets the professional and makes them visible to clients worldwide.
- What you earn
- The referral is tracked in your partner dashboard. The commission term on this page covers hires made by clients you refer.
