Yes this is a referral. Likelihood of being invited to interview depends on how good your CV is and your fit for the role.

Yes it is!
The odds are definitely in your favor now.
That said, hope for the best and prepare for the worst - remember to not put all your eggs in one basket here!

Yes it is a referral! However, a referral doesn't guarantee you an interview invite.
Fingers crossed!
