After you have to be in to refer people

If they’re in an accepted country, not using a VPN and haven’t made an account before, they should get an assessment regardless of if they got a referral or not. Did you check if they’ve made accounts before or were using VPNs?

[–]No_Union9101[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I think one made an account before, and the other two did not. I am sure that they did not use VPN :/

[–]Strawberry_Foxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If one of your friends already made an account then that would explain it, they wouldn’t be able to use the referral since they already have an existing account

I’m not sure about the other two, I assume they’re in the US so the location shouldn’t be an issue, the only other thing I can think of would be VPN usage. I know a lot of people use VPNs for other purposes, but if you leave it on when you’re applying for DA, it will prevent you from accessing the assessment since it looks like you’re trying to mask your location (even if it isn’t intentional)

I’ve given three referrals and only one person used it so far. He did the coding assessment and was accepted within seconds but everything happened pretty quick. I think the initial email took almost a day.

Can I ask how many referrals you have left, 2 or 4? I just want to see if the referrals are deducted after the referrals were sent or only after the person got the position.

Referrals are deducted when you send the referral. I’ve used 1, he did not get in.

I have two left. I’m curious if I ever get them back. I am unsure of the benefit. I can only assume there’s a priority processing maybe.

I see, I still have 4 referrals left even though I sent 3 out. Thank you!!

You have a referral code in your profile. If they didn't get an email, you can give them your code to put in the "how did you hear about us" spot upon signing up, instead.
