This is not the first time I have heard of bloggers advertising for job openings. Janette Toral did that and if I remember right she created a blog solely for advertising job openings for IT positions, particularly those required by DigitalFilipino members. This time however, the impact is more personal because I know the company and the person doing the hiring.
Payment for applicants referred has also been practiced before. That is how recruitment companies earn. That is also an effective way of referring not just for jobs
but also for clubs and organizations; rewarding the person who referred a successful entrant. In a way, you could say it is a basic principle in network marketing.I'm not surprised though. After all, the company had long tried to position itself as a good choice for information technology projects. Besides, if they are paying me to give them their employees then why not.
The company is Systems Generators Phil Inc. by the way.
