Which voice system is everyone using

Subject: Seeking Recommendations for International Calling Systems

Hello everyone,

I’m based in the UK and have recently launched my own recruitment firm. I’m curious to know which voice system you all use for international calls.

Most of my clients come from the UK, Singapore, New York, and Hong Kong, so I’m looking for the best and most cost-effective option. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

LinkedIn Recruiter Advice

Advice Needed for LinkedIn Recruiter Task

Hello everyone! I have a background in recruitment and am currently transitioning into sourcing and talent acquisition. I’m excited to share that I’ve secured a few interviews, and I’m now preparing for a practical task where I’ll be working with LinkedIn Recruiter next week. I will need to create a talent pool for a specific role, although I’m not sure what it will be yet.

I’m applying for a junior position that offers onboarding training, but the competition is tough. I know I need to stand out from the crowd. I’ve completed several tutorials and feel comfortable with the basics, but I’m looking for any additional tips or tricks. If you have any hacks, hidden features, or AI tools that aren’t typically covered in standard tutorials, I would greatly appreciate your insights to help strengthen my candidacy.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can share! 🙌

Graduate BDR Assessment Day

Graduate BDR Assessment Day

Hello everyone! I’m a UK internal recruiter, and I’m excited to share that I’ll be attending my second assessment day soon, organized by one of the recruitment agencies we partner with.

This event is geared towards recent graduates looking to begin their careers as Business Development Representatives.

I’d love to hear your insights on what you typically look for in candidates during these assessment days. What criteria do you recommend using for evaluating them?

Having participated in my first assessment day before, I want to make sure I’m even more prepared this time around. Thank you in advance for your tips!

Can’t get professional indemnity insurance?

Struggling to secure professional indemnity insurance?

Hello everyone, I recently launched my own recruitment agency focused on placing candidates in roles, mainly across the UK and US. However, I’m encountering a major hurdle: insurance providers are denying me coverage for professional indemnity as soon as they realize I have clients outside the UK.

The primary concern is that if a dispute arises, companies would prefer to litigate in their own jurisdiction. For instance, a US firm would aim to have any legal matter addressed in a US court.

This situation has left me quite confused, and I would sincerely welcome any guidance you could offer.

Usually, when I partner with companies, they provide me with a terms of business document upon registration. Since I have not yet onboarded any clients, I’m unsure about the legal implications of these documents, especially regarding the jurisdiction clauses.

Sourcing platforms subscriptions

Subject: Insight on Sourcing Platform Subscriptions

Good evening, recruiters!

I’m eager to get your opinions on a topic.

If your company offers access to a single sourcing platform, such as Indeed, would you consider investing in subscriptions to additional platforms to help fill more positions? Or would you prefer to solely utilize the tools your company provides? Looking forward to your thoughts!

Use of AI in resume and cover letters

The Role of AI in Crafting Resumes and Cover Letters

Hello, Reddit recruiters! I’d love to hear your opinions on using AI to generate resumes and cover letters for job applications. How likely do you think candidates are to succeed using this method? While the experience and education listed would be genuine, most of us aren’t professional resume writers. Customizing these documents for every job can be quite tedious. If we were to streamline this process with AI assistance before applying, do you think your systems would easily spot the difference?

Has anyone here applied and interviewed at Manulife?

Has anyone had a recent experience applying and interviewing at Manulife? I’m considering reapplying since it’s been six months since my last attempt, and I’m hopeful for a better outcome this time around. I had a bit of an unusual experience with their recruitment process previously, but I’ve heard great things about their benefits. I’m curious to know if their hiring process has improved since then.

Salary Market Research for Tech Recruiting

Exploring Salary Market Research for Tech Recruiting

In my new role as a Tech Recruiter, I’ve been tasked with conducting extensive market research without directly reaching out to candidates. This approach is largely driven by the increasing costs of LinkedIn licenses and the need for efficient use of resources.

To gather salary insights, I’ve turned to platforms like Glassdoor and Jobicy, among others. However, I’ve found that the data often lacks reliability and can be difficult to interpret.

Given these challenges, I’m looking for effective methods to conduct meaningful salary market research.

Are there any tools, software, or strategies that could help streamline this process?

Thank you!
