Should I Include Referrers' Info After They Forwarded My Résumé to HR on Workday??
I have a question about the application process and could use some advice.
Two people from different teams mentioned they forwarded my résumé to HR. The issue is that I had already applied for one of the roles before I spoke with them. Now that I'm applying for a second role, I’m not sure if I need to include their names or email addresses in the "What's their name or email address?" field when prompted during the application.
Since both of them have already forwarded my résumé, I’m confused about whether I should add their details to my applications or not. Also, should I withdraw my original application and re-submit it with their info, or just leave it as is? Both positions are analyst-level roles on different teams, and I’m applying through Workday.
Any guidance on how to handle this would be really helpful! Thanks!
edit: also dont want to seem dumb, because this conversation was like 2 weeks ago and am making the change now /applying to the other one now, so just worried if i put their email now they might get a email or might seem dumb?
