You’ve heard it before:
“Referrals get you interviews. Cold applications get ignored.”

And yet, many job seekers hit the same wall:
You don’t know anyone at the company. You don’t know who to reach out to. You don’t know what to say.

📌 You might relate to this:

  • You applied to dozens of jobs… but got zero replies
  • You opened LinkedIn and didn’t know where to start
  • You drafted 5 versions of a cold message and still hesitated to hit send
  • You finally messaged someone—and got ghosted

🎯 JobWizard’s Find Referrers was built exactly for these moments.

🔍 See who can refer you—instantly

Once you open a job page, JobWizard automatically scans the company and recommends real employees who might be able to refer you. These include:

  • People in the HR or hiring team
  • Managers with similar job titles or department roles
  • Employees in the same city or location as the job post

Each person comes with a full mini-profile: name, job title, location, even LinkedIn followers—so you can prioritize who to reach out to.

✍️ One-click message drafts—customized for the job

Not sure what to say in a cold DM? Don’t worry.
JobWizard will generate a message tailored to:

  • The job you're applying for
  • The person’s background
  • Your shared context

Example:

Hi Calvin, I came across you while researching Axon. My passion for driving strategic initiatives aligns well with the senior project manager role. Excited to connect!

You can also switch tone with just one click:

  • Formal – for senior folks or corporate settings
  • Conversational – for peers or more casual companies
  • Enthusiastic – if you want to sound extra passionate
  • Shorten text – for bite-sized mobile-friendly messages
  • Customize instruction – if you want to control the prompt yourself

🧠 Still not satisfied? Open the AI chat and say things like:

  • “Make this more concise”
  • “Add something about my product experience”
  • “Make it sound less generic and more real”

🔗 Direct LinkedIn access—without the search

Once you're ready, just hit Contact and you’ll be taken straight to their LinkedIn profile.

✅ No need to search manually
✅ No need to copy-paste job descriptions
✅ No awkward second-guessing yourself

It’s especially helpful for shy or socially anxious users—you get structure and clarity with no guesswork.

💬 Why referrals matter (a lot)

Many companies now use ATS systems (Applicant Tracking Systems), which automatically filter applications. Referrals help your resume skip the queue and get real human attention.

Benefits of having a referral:

  • Your resume is more likely to be read
  • You get faster responses
  • You might be recommended directly to the hiring team

It’s not just about getting noticed—it’s about getting through.

✅ How to use Find Referrers

  1. Download JobWizard from the Chrome Web Store
  2. Open any job listing (LinkedIn, Workday, etc.)
  3. Click the Find Referrers tab in the sidebar
  4. Browse suggested people, and click to generate a message
  5. Hit Contact to open their LinkedIn and connect

That’s it. No more hunting. No more anxiety.
