Seeking Part-Time Opportunities in Recruitment

I’m exploring the possibility of finding part-time work in recruitment but I’m unsure if I should start my own business. I have experience in recruitment and am currently working in another sales sector, but I lack knowledge on how to launch my own venture.

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions, particularly from those who might be willing to offer a commission-only position. I’m interested in helping fill low-paying roles, such as hospitality or warehouse jobs, in my local area. I have availability in the evenings and on weekends, and I occasionally have weekdays off, which would allow me to take on new clients. I’m well-connected within my community and confident in my ability to fill multiple positions.

Are there any companies that might consider this commission-only arrangement? Or should I consider going solo? Thank you for your insights!

Reverse recruiting?

Reverse Recruiting Inquiry
Hi everyone,

I’m currently in the UX/UI field and have a solid background in customer service. However, I’m honestly looking to shift away from UX, even though it pays well, and would prefer to pursue opportunities in customer success. I have 15 years of experience in customer service, but I know the pay isn’t as competitive unless I aim for a Customer Success Manager role.

So, I’m reaching out to ask:

Where can I find reverse recruiters who don’t charge fees? I’ve heard there are recruiters who specialize in specific fields, like UX design or customer success management, who help candidates find roles without a cost.

Any insights would be greatly appreciated as I navigate this new concept of reverse recruiting. Thank you!

How Do You Compensate Permanent Recruiters?

Hi everyone! I hope you don’t mind a somewhat complex question—I’m reaching out in hopes of getting some guidance from seasoned agency owners!

I launched my recruitment agency earlier this year, and things are going well; we’re averaging about $60K a month, primarily through contract placements. While I have extensive experience in temporary and contract recruitment, permanent placements are a whole new ballgame for me. As a solo operator, I’ve been able to manage roles and retain all fees, but now that I’m looking to expand my team, I need to understand how to calculate individual billings and commissions for my recruiters.

My plan is to implement a salary plus commission structure. The idea is that recruiters will first cover their salary through their billings and then earn a commission on the amount over that threshold. I’m thinking of a commission rate of 30% for securing a job order and 25% for successfully placing a candidate.

Here’s a scenario I’m trying to wrap my head around:

  • If a recruiter has a salary of $5K per month and bills $30K in a month, how should I determine their commission? Should I consider the total fee of the job order they worked on or just the portion they directly contributed to?
  • In my proposed plan, if a recruiter brings in a job order but another recruiter fills it, they would be entitled to a 30% commission after covering their salary. So, for instance, if the salary is $5K and the placement fee is $20K, would they earn 30% of $15K or 30% of the full $20K? My mind is a bit boggled on this—any clarification would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Looking for ATS Recommendations with Website Data Integration for My Solo Recruitment Firm

Hello everyone,

I’m in the process of launching a one-person recruitment firm and I’m on the hunt for an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) that can effectively manage applications while also providing valuable insights on my website for each job listing.

I’m particularly interested in an ATS that can capture and showcase data points such as:

  • Total number of applicants
  • Number of interviews held
  • Predominant industries of applicants
  • Rejection rate of applicants

I envision this information being displayed in a dashboard format on my website, similar to the ATS dashboards that recruiters typically utilize.

Can anyone recommend ATS platforms that support this type of integration? I’d love to hear about any options that align closely with these requirements.

Thank you for your help!

Recruitment Update

I recently applied for a position in my field, where I have over 10 years of experience. After deciding to leave my previous job, I took a four-month break to reassess my career direction. Upon realizing I wanted to return to work, I submitted my application.

My initial conversation with the recruiter went smoothly, and they set up an in-person interview with the hiring manager for the following week. That meeting also went well.

The day after the interview, the recruiter contacted me to schedule a phone call for the following week. I assumed this call was to inform me that I got the job, especially since my experience seemed to perfectly match what the company was looking for.

However, during the call, the recruiter informed me that they wouldn’t be moving forward with my application. She mentioned that there was no negative feedback from my interview and that the hiring manager thought highly of me. The deciding factor, however, was that I was not currently employed, and they chose to proceed with other candidates who were.

Just two days later, I noticed the job posting was back on their website.

I’m left wondering what this all means and what my next steps should be. It feels like the recruiter may not have been entirely forthcoming with me. Any advice?

Enough, I want out.

Enough, I want out.

I’m done. It’s time to make a change.

I’ve spent over five years in recruitment and talent acquisition, working with some of the largest manufacturing and IT companies, both as an agency and in-house. During this time, I’ve experienced two layoffs—one due to COVID and the other during the recent wave of tech layoffs.

In pursuit of my career, I’ve relocated to different countries twice without any relocation support and have consistently been promoted. However, my salary is now about 30% lower than it was two years ago. I haven’t learned anything new in the last three years, while I’ve been in the position of teaching others.

I’m considering a shift to sales, particularly in manufacturing-related products—not services or software. How can I successfully make this transition, and what other opportunities should I explore? I’m based in Barcelona. Thanks for your advice!
