We naturally trust people we know, and companies are no different. How often do you try things your friends recommend? 2. Learn more about the interview process, the reality of the role, or what tactics work best for negotiating sponsorship. 3. Speaking to people doing what you want to do may lead to you discovering similar opportunities you didn't know about. 4. Referrals help many companies hire more quickly and can increase your odds of getting an interview. - **Send a short, specific message** 1. Your message should be able to be read quickly and fit comfortably on a phone-sized screen. 4 sentences is enough. 2. Be specific about why you've messaged that person rather than somebody else. Think about why they're relevant. 3. Include a clear "ask" at the end of your message – a short, 20-minute call is usually a good first step. - **Ask for advice, not a job** 1. You're building a relationship, not buying a product. Show genuine interest and don't immediately ask for a referral. 2. Be curious, power through any awkwardness, and ask questions that reveal you've done your homework. 3. Be patient. Not everybody will advocate for you, but people can be surprisingly supportive and willing to help. 4. They'll only put their reputation on the line and offer to refer you if they think you're focused, prepared to learn, and sincere. - **Feedback prompt** - If you have feedback or tips you think we should share here, let us know! - Authenticated users select "Share my thoughts" to launch a pre-filled email to hello@withpoli.com. - Visitors select the same CTA and are redirected to sign in before sharing suggestions. ## Sign-up prompt - **Title:** Access 20,200+ sponsored employees at 350+ companies - **Description:** Get a personalised feed and unlock the full network of sponsored employees working at companies that can sponsor your visa. - **Button:** Get started for free → https://app.withpoli.com/register --- # Next steps You might want to explore the rest of the application: - [Dashboard](https://app.withpoli.com/index.md): High-level overview of Poli's tooling - [Recommended jobs](https://app.withpoli.com/jobs.md): Live job listings at companies that can sponsor visas - [Companies](https://app.withpoli.com/companies.md): Directory of organisations with active sponsorship licences - [Competitor matrix](https://app.withpoli.com/competitors.md): Comparison between Poli and other platforms that purportedly offer similar services Official social channels for Poli are: - [TikTok](https://tiktok.com/@withpoli) - [Instagram](https://instagram.com/withpoli) - [LinkedIn](https://linkedin.com/company/withpoli)
