Invoice Financing Inquiry
Hello everyone! I’m curious to hear who you recommend for invoice financing. Some people use banks for this, but unfortunately, our business bank doesn’t provide this service since we’re just getting started. I’d appreciate any suggestions you might have (UK-based). Thank you!
Advice on LinkedIn Talent Solutions
I’ve been in discussions with LinkedIn regarding transitioning to their Job Slots and Recruiter features instead of continuing with individual job postings.
I have a couple of options: I can either go for 3 job slots along with the Recruiter feature for around £3,200, or opt for 5 job slots without the Recruiter feature for £1,900 over a 6-month period.
Since most of our hiring is focused on junior roles, I’m uncertain about how beneficial the Recruiter feature would be for our needs. I would appreciate any suggestions or experiences others may have had with these features!
Possible mistake?
I have a background check with CISIVE coming up and just realized that the resume they have is not completely accurate. While the job titles are correct, the years for one position are incorrect. How should I handle this? Should I inform them and send an updated resume, or should I just leave it as is? What would you recommend? 🥲

Navigating Job Advert Access – Am I Overstepping?
Background:
I have been working in agency recruitment for three years now. When I first started, we had access to three job ad slots each month. These were single-use, meaning once they were posted, they were gone for good. Our company website is not effective in attracting quality candidates, and on rare occasions, we could negotiate for an extra slot or two.
Recently, we were granted access to a reusable Indeed job slot, which rotates weekly among team members. This means each of us gets a week (from Wednesday to Wednesday) to utilize it before passing it on.
The Challenge:
I’m currently having a strong quarter, exceeding my €35k target with over €50k in billings, which has renewed my enthusiasm for recruitment. However, management has decided to eliminate all single-use job slots and has revoked access to CV databases. Although we were informed that more Indeed slots may become available, no definite plans have been presented.
Because of these restrictions, I can only post jobs during the first week of the month, leaving me without advertising options for the remainder. This situation forces me into purely cold sourcing, which, while part of my role, feels like an unnecessary obstacle. I genuinely believe that, with better access to job postings and warmer candidates, my billings could increase to between €80k and €100k per quarter.
I’ve voiced my concerns to management, but they seem indifferent, offering little more than reassurances during team meetings and quickly moving on, even when multiple team members express similar frustrations.
Am I in the Wrong?
Should I advocate more strongly for tangible changes, or is this simply something I need to accept? I have a genuine desire to perform better and generate more revenue for the company—and, naturally, for myself. But if they remain unyielding, am I just wasting my efforts?
What does everyone think—should I continue pushing for better resources, or adapt to the limitations we currently face?
Grateful? Unsure?
I just completed a second round interview (woohoo!) with a company I admire, and I had a great conversation with one of my potential future managers.
Here’s where I need your advice:
The meeting was coordinated by HR, so I don’t have the interviewer’s email. Should I connect with him on LinkedIn to express my gratitude, or would it be better to remain silent?
Thanks for your help!
How Can My US Employer Legally Pay Me as a Remote Worker in the Philippines?
Hello everyone,
I’m a Filipino international student currently in the US, and my visa is about to expire. I plan to return to the Philippines next year, but my US employer is interested in continuing to hire me remotely. They prefer not to establish a legal entity in the Philippines or use a third-party payroll service and are looking for a straightforward and compliant way to pay me directly.
I’m exploring the best way to set this up with minimal complications for them. Here are my questions:
If anyone has experience working remotely for a US-based company while living in the Philippines, I would love to hear how you organized it. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
Exploring Lead Sourcing Opportunities
Hi everyone! I’m considering joining a software company that focuses on lead sourcing for recruiters. Their solutions include automating live job roles, outreach, and optional AI-driven email services.
Having worked in recruitment previously, I’m familiar with the landscape, but I’ve been away from the industry for a few years. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the value of products like this—I’m aware of some competitors like Apollo.
I’m torn about making the leap because it feels a bit risky, but the product appears to be well-crafted, and they’ve developed unique features to stand out in the market.
Any insights or experiences you can share would be greatly appreciated!
How can I efficiently screen thousands of resumes?
I recently faced the task of shortlisting resumes and was quite frustrated with tools like Rippling and Workable. Their basic filtration options were lacking, and they didn’t offer effective skill matching or industry-specific searches.
What’s the solution to this challenge? I’m eager to find the right candidates, but the thought of manually sifting through so many resumes is daunting, especially when I worry I might overlook an ideal candidate.
