Have you all noticed that October and November tend to be quieter months for recruitment agencies? It seems like our industry has nearly hit a pause on new roles. I’m interested to know if other agencies are experiencing the same trend.
Are there any JobAdder users in this group? I’d love to hear about any Add-Ons you’re using and how they’ve worked for you!
We currently utilize the standard JobAdder with a few basic/free add-ons. We often receive marketing pitches about new features through Add-Ons, but many seem overpriced and not very beneficial for what we need.
We’re particularly considering the Candidate Portal and JobAdder Analytics but are hesitant about whether they will truly add value for our small team. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Advice on Transitioning to Recruitment
I’ve been exploring a transition from my marketing background into recruitment and have received an offer for a position as a recruitment resourcing consultant. The base salary is in line with entry-level roles (around £20k), but I’m not too impressed with the commission structure and potential for career advancement.
My main question is: if I take this position and gain some experience, will it help me secure a full 360 recruitment consultant role or a trainee position later on? I understand that I would likely need to change companies to achieve this, but I’m curious if this type of experience is valuable, especially since I won’t be directly interacting with clients at this stage. Ultimately, I aim to work in an agency environment in a 360 capacity.
Is working as a resourcing consultant good preparation for transitioning into a 360 role?

Looking for Recommendations for Compliance and Onboarding Software
Has anyone found a reliable software solution for onboarding candidates? I’m working in the healthcare field and typically need to gather, review, and finalize over 15 different documents. There are often back-and-forth communications involved, and I also require hospitals and clinicians to verify and sign the same documents.
Is there a software out there that can streamline this entire process? I’ve tried Deputy, but it doesn’t offer enough customization for my specific document workflow, and the formatting issues with the signing documents are problematic. Any suggestions?
Looking for Tech Specialization Suggestions!
Hi everyone! I’m new here and excited to join the conversation.
As the founder of a small recruitment agency, I’m approaching my third anniversary in this venture. I’ve been in tech recruitment for six years, focusing on open-source web technologies, primarily JavaScript, with some experience in cloud services. My work has mainly been in the UK, though I’ve also dabbled in the US market.
This past year has been challenging, and I’m feeling a bit worn out by the intense competition in my current niche. I often feel undervalued and would like to explore new avenues.
I’m on the lookout for fresh ideas for a tech niche that shows promise. What areas are yielding success right now?
I’ve begun to explore Cyber Security and Robotics in Supply Chain companies, but I’d love to hear any other suggestions you might have! Thanks in advance for your insights!
Title: Freelance Recruiters in the IT Industry: How Can We Protect Our Rights?
As a freelance recruiter in the IT sector, I often encounter challenges with my clients. Recently, I worked diligently on filling an open position for one of my clients, only to be informed a week later that their internal HR team had already filled it, rendering my efforts moot. Unfortunately, this situation has repeated itself across multiple roles, even after I’ve submitted a robust pool of candidates.
Our agreement stipulates that I am compensated only for each candidate that is hired, which means when their HR team fills a role after I’ve already invested my time, I end up with no payment. This has resulted in several months of unpaid work for me.
What steps can I take to protect my rights in these situations? I’m curious to hear about your experiences and insights.
