Hi there,

Better to ask a referral before you apply. You can find more tips on referrals here:

Hi there,

This is Networking 101 :) You want to start your networking now. Try and speak to a number of people with the ultiamte goal of getting a referral or getting in touch with HR.

Networking has minimal impact if you apply before you network. To be clear the order is network first apply second!

Hi, if you have the chance to talk to the partner before submitting the application you can indirectly ask for a referral to accelerate the process
