You know code, but you also know people. In our industry, who you know matters as much as what you know. The G2i referral program is your chance to shape the industry by connecting top teams with top talent — and getting rewarded for it.
It's a quick call: understanding G2i, the referral rewards, and your role as matchmaker.
Look at your LinkedIn. Those contacts? Potential. We provide the templates, you make the intros. Simple as that.
Got a meeting? $250 in your account. When the company hires a part-timer, you get $1000. Full-timer? Make that $2,000. Keep earning up to 5 hires per business.
Companies you refer get a bonus too — $1,000 off their first invoice. You're the connector; they get the head start.
G2i matches engineering teams with remote developers they can trust. Technology leaders rely on us to hire freelance contractors, find full-time employees, and build entire teams.
Unlike other marketplaces, engineers go through bank-level identity verification and and must pass at least one technical assessment to work through G2i. This helps make sure that clients know who to expect and that anyone they hire through our platform has the technical and soft skills to do the job.
G2i developers are verified experts in one or two technologies. We assess skills from Angular to Vue, and most skills in between. That said, the typical roles we fulfill include:
Full-stack Developer
Front-end Developer
Back-end Developer
DevOps Engineer
Mobile Developer
Web Developer
Software Engineer
QA Engineer
A referred business must become a G2i client, i.e. they sign a Statement of Work (SOW) whenever they hire and must pay their invoices for referral bonuses to be issued.
If the referred business happens to be a prior G2i client, bonuses will only be awarded with the addition of a new SOW. Rate increases and contract extensions are not eligible for referral bonuses.
The client can hire contractors part-time or full-time for a minimum of one month. Referral bonuses are awarded after the client pays for the developer's first month of work.
You'll earn a referral bonus for the first 5 hires within 12 months of the first meeting, capping the maximum reward at $10,000 for each business. That said, there's no limit to the number of companies you can refer. Refer, reward, repeat.
A few factors can affect the process length, but generally it takes four to seven days for clients to start working with a developer once they've selected the right person.
We understand the risks, which is why we have a one-week trial period to help mitigate it. If a developer doesn't meet the standards during the trial, we won't charge the client. We'll then find a replacement to ensure their project is still completed with minimal disruption.
This is about making an impact, in tech and in your career. No overblown promises, just tangible rewards for playing a pivotal role in tech hires.
