What to do if you do not want to recommend a friend to work
1. Agree to help, but without too much enthusiasm. But keep in mind that even if you do not convince the leadership and praise your friend, there is a risk of spoiling your reputation. His resume may not be ideal, and at the interview he will fail at all. Therefore, it is better to simply propose to consider his resume - it will suddenly come up, but not to evaluate his competencies.
2. Explain to a friend why work is not suitable for him. Do not go into the details of the work and its specifics, avoid professional nuances and do not evaluate the correspondence of experience and skills. Give simpler arguments: it’s not easy to get, low salaries, poor leadership, constant unpaid overtime, etc.
3. Make up an excuse. Have you already recommended a friend and nothing came of it? Is the guide not listening to you very much? Maybe an employee from another department is already going to take up free space? You can come up with a compelling excuse so as not to upset your friend with the bitter truth.
4. Try redirecting his enthusiasm. Arrange for a friend to meet with one of the employees with the same or similar responsibilities so that they discuss in more detail professional nuances. Your colleague, as a mentor, will be able to give him useful recommendations on what to tighten, where to get an internship, etc. This will not only protect your friendship and reputation at work, but also help your friend improve.
5. Say everything as it is. Yes, it can be difficult. But perhaps your honesty and constructive criticism will greatly help your friend in the future. First of all, you should count on just that, and not just try not to muddle in front of management and colleagues.
