Communication Automation Tool (LinkedIn, Indeed, Facebook, etc.)

Hi everyone,

I’m a software developer and the creator of a browser extension that helps users craft templates for commonly used messages across various platforms, like LinkedIn and Facebook.

I’ve received positive feedback from recruiters and talent sourcers who find it incredibly useful for creating templates for connection requests, pitches, job descriptions, and more. I wanted to share it here to see if it could benefit you as well.

To adhere to subreddit rules, I won’t post a link here, but if you’re interested, feel free to DM me for more information. The tool is currently free and fully functional without limitations!

Competitive Analysis – How To?

Competitive Analysis: Seeking Guidance

I work for a small agency with a longstanding history and we’re currently engaged in several significant projects focused on improving our business processes and clearing out our backlog.

One topic that has emerged is the need to evaluate our current pricing structure. We’ve realized that we might be underpricing our services compared to others in our area. Many of our long-term agreements come with discounted rates that no longer reflect the value we provide. As a result, we’re considering establishing a new pricing strategy for the upcoming year.

However, while we’ve heard chatter about our rates being on the lower end, we’re looking for more concrete evidence to support this. Unfortunately, most contract terms are usually kept confidential, making it challenging to gather this data.

One of my colleagues suggested that we could cold call other agencies while posing as clients to inquire about their rates—something we’ve even experienced ourselves. However, this approach doesn’t feel right to me. I wanted to reach out and see if this practice is common in the industry. What are your thoughts?

Company taking over 2 weeks on salary negotiation. Is this normal?

Is it typical for salary negotiations to take over two weeks?

I interviewed with a company and received a job offer about two weeks ago. The recruiter mentioned that the hiring manager was quite impressed with my qualifications. However, I later discovered that the top salary band for the position is $11,000 lower than my current salary—something the recruiter hadn’t mentioned before. I decided to negotiate and asked if they could match my current salary. The recruiter seemed to expect this and assured me that the hiring manager would try to accommodate my request and get back to me.

Since then, I haven’t heard anything for two weeks. I followed up with the recruiter last week, and he mentioned he would have an update by the end of the week, but I still haven’t received any news. Is this kind of delay normal? I’m starting to feel frustrated with the lack of communication.

Is it okay to reach out to my recruiter to recommend a talented classmate of mine?

Subject: Seeking Advice on Referring a Classmate to My Recruiter

Hi everyone,

I hope this message finds you well! I’m new to the business world and would appreciate your guidance. I recently accepted an internship offer for next summer, and I have a talented classmate who is currently looking for an internship as well.

Would it be appropriate for me to reach out to my recruiter to recommend her? I’m unsure if my input would carry much weight as an incoming intern, and I don’t want to risk annoying my recruiter.

Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Best sectors?- UK

Seeking Insights on the UK Recruitment Industry

Hi everyone,

I’m making a transition from car sales and am excited about diving into the recruitment sector. I’m particularly interested in identifying which industries in the UK are thriving right now and which ones to steer clear of, especially in the Southwest (Exeter area).

Additionally, I’d appreciate any tips on what to watch for when joining recruitment firms, including commission structures or any potential red flags to be cautious of.

Thanks in advance for your help!

CV PDF Tracking/Analytics Software

CV PDF Tracking and Analytics Tool

Is anyone utilizing software to send and monitor CVs and portfolios? I’m interested in features that track whether they’ve been opened, how much time was spent reviewing them, and whether they’ve been forwarded or shared.

It would be incredibly helpful to see if clients are 1) opening the documents and 2) reading through the entire CV. In the healthcare sector, where some doctors have CVs that exceed 20 pages, I’m curious if a more concise format would yield a better response rate.

Life after recruitment?

What roles can I transition into after a career in recruitment? I’ve spent the last three years in this field, generating $500K in revenue this year alone and leading a small team.

How much do recruiters get paid

Understanding Recruiter Compensation in Education

Hi everyone! I’m new to the recruitment field and first discovered this career while working part-time in teaching during university, where I was brought on board by an agency.

I’m particularly interested in how Recruitment Consultants in the education sector earn their revenue. From what I’ve seen in job listings, it appears there’s potential to earn a good income through commissions and other incentives.

Could someone explain how staffing for schools works during term time? Specifically, how and when do recruiters receive payment for each person they place in a school for the day? What percentage of the hourly rate that a candidate works is typically allocated to the recruiter as their fee?

I’m eager to learn more about recruitment before I dive into this field! Thank you!

Firms hiring in the NYC/CT Area?

Are there any firms in the NYC/CT area that are hiring? I’m an experienced recruiter with three years of successful placements and have been recognized in the President’s Club each year. I’m looking for a retained firm that focuses primarily on the candidate side of recruitment. While I have experience in 360 recruitment, I’d prefer to concentrate on filling job openings rather than sales. Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
