Every opportunity, not just the ones that fit you

Every opportunity has a unique share link. No applications to fill out on behalf of candidates, no resumes to format, no email chains. Send the link, they take it from there.

Track

Commission lands the second a study clears

20% deposits straight to your account when a referral gets approved on a study. No invoicing, no net-30, no payout request. Stacks across every approval up to a $1,000 cap per person.

Claire Cavallini started by referring friends she trusted. She now runs Talent Ops at Terac. See how the trajectory worked.

Illustrative, not a guarantee. The model assumes 1.5 approved submissions per hour worked and uses average commission across live opportunities. Real earnings depend on which candidates you refer, how many studies they qualify for, and the per-person $1,000 cap.

Live now

No shortage of opportunities.

A live slice of what's open right now. The full feed updates every day with new vetted opportunities you can refer to, regardless of your own background.

Portrait of Claire Cavallini

Head of Talent Ops at Terac · Remote

“I started by referring people I trusted into the panel: friends, friends of friends, the niche operators no recruiter could find.”

Claire didn't join Terac as an employee. She joined as a contributor and started quietly referring people she trusted: the niche operators no LinkedIn search could surface. After a few months of doing that, Terac offered her a full-time role running Talent Ops.

Independent recruiters, sourcers, headhunters, and agency owners who already know how to find people but want a faster way to get paid for it. You don't need to be the expert yourself. You just need a network and the judgment to know who fits a role.
You earn 20% of every payout your referral gets approved for on Terac, not just the first study. Earnings stack across every study they complete, up to a $1,000 cap per referred person, stamped when they sign up.
Yes. This is one of the biggest differences from other platforms. You see every live opportunity in the feed (not just ones that match your background) so you can refer the people in your network wherever they fit. A US-based recruiter can refer a clinician in Brazil. A fintech recruiter can refer a healthcare operator.
Instantly. The moment your referral gets approved on a study, the commission deposits to your Terac account. No invoicing, no payout requests, no net-30, no waiting period. Withdraw to your preferred method whenever you like.
None of those. No exclusivity, no seat fees, no contracts to negotiate. You can recruit on Terac alongside any other platform or your own agency clients. Sign up, refer, get paid.
Earnings are treated as independent contractor income. We issue tax forms to US recruiters who earn above the reporting threshold in a calendar year. International recruiters are responsible for filing in their own jurisdiction.
A placement happens when a person you referred gets approved on a study. Approval means their submission passed quality review and got paid. You earn commission on every approval that referral generates (not just the first one) up to the per-person cap.
Yes. Each recruiter signs up individually and keeps their own commission. There are no team seats to buy and no manager dashboard yet. Every recruiter operates independently on the platform.
No earnings flow until approval, but there's no penalty either. Refer broadly, follow the candidate guidance for each opportunity, and the strongest matches will clear. Quality compounds over time as you learn which opportunities your network is best suited for.
After sign-up, every opportunity in the feed has a one-click share button that produces your unique referral link. Send it however you already send candidate intros: email, DM, your CRM, LinkedIn. The link does the attribution.
