Till now Naukri Referral system used to allow referral incentive payout with Payout period – based on Joining period only.Recruiters could define Payout Period based on the duration after the referred candidate joins.
This allowed recruiter to create reports to find which employee receives the referral incentive.
New Feature introduced with Referral Enterprise Version
Introducing new variant of referral – Referral Enterprise – this will include multiple features.One of the new features include Payment in Stages.
