Eqo Introduces Eve, the AI-Powered Employee Referral Assistant

Employee referrals are one of the most effective ways to bring in high-quality hires, but getting employees to adopt a new referral platform can be a challenge. That’s where Eve steps in to help make the transition smooth and effective, capturing all referral activity and maximizing employee engagement with customers’ employee referral program

Here are Eve's starting responsibilities: 

One Source of Truth

Eve ensures your Eqo dashboard remains the single source of truth for all referrals. She automatically captures any employee referrals made using old processes, such as being listed on candidate applications and not submitted through referral platform. This means you won’t miss any valuable referrals, even from employees still adjusting to the new system.

Matching Misspelled Names

Eve removes the need for manual corrections and ensures that every referral is properly tracked and attributed. Her AI-driven technology ensures that even when candidates add a referral source on their application with shortened names, misspelled names, or only partial information, she can accurately match the referral to the correct employee. For example, if a candidate enters “Bob” instead of “Robert,” or “Cathy” instead of “Catherine,” Eve automatically recognizes the variation and links the referral to the right employee in the system.

Raising Awareness and Driving Engagement

To help employees fully transition, Eve sends reminders to those still using older referral methods, directing them to Eqo’s new text-to-refer process. This proactive outreach encourages employees to adopt the new system seamlessly, building consistency and improving engagement with minimal disruption.

More Responsibilities on the Horizon

Eve’s capabilities don’t stop with managing referrals. As Eqo continues to evolve, Eve will take on even more responsibilities. In the future, she will handle employee inquiries, providing real-time responses to questions about the referral process and ensuring that employees have all the information they need. Eve will also deliver a white-glove experience to candidates by offering personalized updates and guiding them through the referral process, making the entire experience more seamless for both employees and candidates alike.
