Data Referral Screening Worksheet: Staffing and Recruiting Firms

As a staffing or recruiting professional, you often have a unique vantage point into a wide array of businesses. You understand their operations, their workforce, and their data landscape. This insight can be incredibly valuable, not just for your core services, but also for identifying potential partners for data licensing.

SourceX is the enterprise data transaction layer for AI, managing data licensing from sourcing and rights review to delivery and payment. We partner with companies that hold valuable, licensable data. By referring suitable companies, you can earn a share of the fees SourceX collects.

This worksheet is designed to help you quickly assess whether a staffing or recruiting firm in your network might be a good fit for data licensing through SourceX, ensuring they meet the baseline criteria. Remember, anyone can join as a partner, though licensed professionals should check their own rules on referral fees.

Staffing and Recruiting Data Referral Screening Worksheet

Use this checklist to evaluate potential referrals. The more 'yes' answers you can confidently mark, the stronger the candidate for a successful referral.

Company Profile & Eligibility

• US-based Operation: Is the company primarily based and operating in the United States?
• Employee Count: Does the company have a history of 50 or more full-time employees at its peak (excluding contractors)?
• Operating History: Does the company have years of established operating records, indicating a stable and mature business?
• Data Ownership/Rights: Does the company possess the legal rights to license its data? (e.g., they own the data, or have explicit permission to license it on behalf of others).
• Authorized Sponsor: Is there an individual within the company who is authorized and willing to sponsor or champion the data licensing initiative? This person would be SourceX's primary contact.

Data Characteristics & Potential

• Relevant Data Assets: Does the company collect or manage data that could be valuable for AI labs and data buyers? (e.g., anonymized job seeker profiles, aggregated hiring trends, industry-specific compensation benchmarks, skill-gap analysis, recruitment success metrics).
• Data Quality & Structure: Do you believe their data is generally well-organized, consistent, and of good quality?
• Data Volume: Does the company handle a significant volume of this data?
• Privacy & Compliance: Is the company generally diligent about data privacy and regulatory compliance (e.g., CCPA, GDPR where applicable to their operations, though SourceX focuses on US companies)?
• Interest in Monetization: Have you heard any indication that the company might be interested in exploring new revenue streams or leveraging their existing data assets?

Partner Referral Program Rewards

By successfully referring a qualifying company, you can earn 25% of the eligible platform fees SourceX actually collects from the referred company's licensing deals. Rewards are capped at $100,000 cumulative per referred company. The partner reward is a share of SourceX's fee and is never deducted from what the company receives.

Rewards become payable only after the buyer pays and SourceX receives its fee. A lead, meeting or signed agreement alone does not trigger payment. Credit goes to the first valid referrer whose introduction leads to a verified company application within the attribution window.

This worksheet is a guide to help you identify strong candidates. Once you've identified a potential fit, you can make an introduction through the SourceX partner program.
