Employee Referral Bonus Program
Montgomery County ESC is always looking for talented individuals — and you can help us find them!
Research shows, and our own experience confirms, that new hires who join an organization through employee referrals are often some of the most dedicated, high-performing team members and tend to remain with the organization longer.
If you refer a candidate who is hired and successfully completes the required employment period, you will receive a $500 referral bonus.
Referral Bonus Rules
