On the 12th Day of Christmas my true love gave to me... www.zubka.com

If Christmas has taken its toll on your bank account as well as your liver why not log on to Zubka (www.zubka.com), a new online platform, that has a unique reward scheme which might just be the helping hand you need to clear that Christmas overdraft and could even help you and your friends get a new job at the same time. It works by enabling individuals to be remunerated for successfully matching people with job opportunities. Instead of a thank-you drink or phone-call, you can now look forward to a generous financial reward every time you successfully match a person with a job. Based on a sliding monetary salary scale developed by Zubka, Britons could earn thousands of pounds every time they recommend a friend or colleague for a new position, simply by registering with the site and sharing contacts and information.

The New Year is about a fresh beginning so whether itís clearing debt, getting a new job or finding new staff, Zubka can help you get 2007 off to flying start. The reward you receive for effectively placing someone depends on their earnings band but is normally between 6% and 8% of their starting salary. Refer someone into a job with a basic salary of 55,000 and youíll earn a reward of 3,600. Who says you have to be penniless in January?

The Zubka premise is:
The Referrer gets a fair reward for doing what most of us do anyway.

The Hirer gets a great new employee, personally recommended, at a fair and cheaper price.

The Prospect gets a great new job, even though they may not actively have been looking for one.

Zubka.com is the first service to tap into the self-styled ëReferral Economyí ñ the national figure based on the number of successful employment referrals within the workforce.

Research conducted on behalf of Zubka has found that the value per year of the referral market, based on the number of successful referrals per year in the UK is a staggering 7.6 billion . This enormous untapped resource will now be unlocked for Britons to benefit from via the Zubka platform.

ìEveryone is a winner with Zubkaî, says recruitment specialist and Zubka co-founder David Shieldhouse. ìWhether it is a financial bonus for referring someone, an exciting new job for an individual, or great new members of staff in less time and with fewer costs for businesses, this service enables everyone involved in the employment chain a chance to benefit, simply by sharing information and contacts.î

Fellow co-founder of Zubka, Armando Ruffini, adds, ìIt is amazing to think that 89% of Britons have never been rewarded for recommending somebody for a job, and yet we do so very often. Zubka allows everyone to benefit from something as simple as making a recommendation. People have been sharing information and contacts via the web since its inception and Zubka is tapping into this communal spirit of the internet, allowing people to reap the rewards from something as simple as giving a referral.î

Once youíre a Zubka referrer simply introduce Zubka to others and if they too become referrers, for each and every placement they ever make, Zubka will give you 5% of the placement fee. Introduce 40 people, each of whom make just one successful referral for a 50k job and youíll earn 9000 for only 20 minutes work!

Hirers can advertise jobs for referrers to browse through for as little as 10 for a four week posting. Joining Zubka as a referrer or a hirer is completely free and will allow you to be a part of the referral revolution.
