Thank referrers and invite referred candidates

Employees refer more people when they hear back quickly. When a row is added to your Referrals sheet, this thanks the employee who made the referral, invites the candidate to apply, and tells the recruiting channel in Slack.

The sheet needs the columns Referrer name, Referrer email, Candidate name, Candidate email and Role.
