Frequently asked questions
What happens to RecruitDay?
We will no longer be using RecruitDay starting July 30, 2022, as we will be transitioning to a new global platform, RolePoint. Don’t worry, though, because all the referrals bucketed under RecruitDay before the switchover will be tracked by Recruitment Operations until full transition and will still be credited to you. However, starting July 20, 2022, you must use our new platform for your referrals to be processed.
How can I refer through the new RPeople Portal? How do I access it?
RPeople Portal is available in your Okta. If you don’t see it there, please file a Fresh Service ticket to request. Once there in your Okta, click the icon and you’ll be taken to the RPeople page. Simply log-in with your RingCentral credentials or choose SSO log in and you’re good to go!
What rewards can I earn?
For every successful referral, an incentive will be awarded to the referrer. Take note that rewards vary depending on specific roles. Check out our payout tier above effective June 10, 2022.
When and how will I receive my referral incentives?
First, your referral must be successful to be able to receive incentives, which means, the eligible referral must be hired for any open external positions. In the Philippines, we have the three-part payment scheme distributed every 30th of the month following the 30th, 90th, and 180th day from the hire of the referral. Once the referred employee has successfully completed prescribed number of days, HR will verify the referring employee is eligible for the bonus and submit a request to payroll for the next cycle. For further details, you may access the Global Employee Referral Policy through this above.
What conditions must referrals complete for me to earn the reward?
Your referral must be successfully hired, must be under your bucket, and must complete the prescribed number of days for the reward to be credited. It is only after your referred employee has worked for the prescribed days will that HR submit a request to payroll to include the qualifying employee referral bonus in your paycheck.
How can I track my referral status?
RolePoint has features that will help you monitor the status of your referrals. The system will notify you via email at every step of the referral process. So always check your email and keep posted.
Who is eligible to be a referral?
Your referral must be sourced through your individual effort, you must inform them of the referral process, must upload updated resume of referral, referral must acknowledge by clicking on the link provided (this serves as consent as well). Your referral CANNOT be any of the following:
A current employee or working as a contractor or a temporary worker, (applies for Acquire BPO and Shore Solutions as well)

Reporting to the referring employee or contractor
Also, take note that the referral program only applies to open external full-time positions. Internships, project-based, temporary, contractor, and rehire from both RingCentral and Acquire BPO positions are not included.
