Zubka is a new online recruitment service that is hoping to boost the number of 
candidates it can source be offering to pay charities a referral fee every time 
one of their supporters or members successfully recommends a candidate to a new 
job position.
Zubka realise that charities’ databases offer a huge range of potential
candidates for their clients seeking to fill vacancies. It is therefore offering
partner charities a cut of their income:

every time one of their supporters successfully matches a candidate with a vacancy
as a result of their recommendation, the charity will receive a percentage of the
reward available.

Zubka was created by David Shieldhouse, a recruitment specialist with over 20 years’
experience. He believes that matching people and opportunities should be “a rewarding
experience for everyone involved” and has set out to build “a service that enables
people to benefit from the sharing of intellectual property”. The concept was further
developed by business partner Armando Ruffini. Zubka was launched last month.
