Referral Bonus Program

The Referral Bous Program would give a $1,000 bonus to any Ohio University employee who refers a candidate (new hire) to apply for a full time Culinary Services job posting, if that candidate is then hired and has been employed and in active pay status for at least 60-working days. New hires referred through this program cannot have been employed by OHIO in the last 12 months (not counting student employment).

Both of the following must occur:

• Candidate will complete the supplemental question in the application specifying the name of the current OHIO employee who referred them and when. 
• Current employee will submit the details on who they referred, and when they spoke at this Culinary Services webpage. If candidate is referred by more than one employee, the employee who submits the survey first will receive the bonus.

Interested OHIO employees are invited to visit this webpage to make referrals.

Please note that bonuses are considered taxable income.
