IATA Recruiter Perspective
I’ve noticed that some recruiters post job listings on LinkedIn that aren’t legitimate, and I find that concerning from an ethical standpoint. It feels especially wrong when there are individuals genuinely struggling to find work. It seems like they’re more interested in collecting data to inundate candidates with lengthy job application processes. Just wanted to share my thoughts here rather than on LinkedIn itself.
Has anyone here tried offshore CV sourcing services? Over the past year, I’ve experimented with several options. They provide access to certain job boards at significantly lower rates, which I found hard to justify at full price.
The quality of service has varied, but we’ve been able to make some cost-effective placements.
I’m on the lookout for new suppliers—any recommendations?
How do you handle client fee breakdown requests in the temping sector?
My agency has had a temp contract for five years, and we’ve been stuck with a very low rate since a past client received a detailed breakdown of our fee calculation. As a result, they know our costs and have leveraged that information against us.
With upcoming changes in tax rates, new levies, and wage increases, we decided to adjust our overall charge rate slightly—around a 0.1% increase. However, the client has now requested a detailed breakdown justifying this change.
I’m looking for suggestions on how to respond. The existing charge rate is not viable long-term, but we can’t afford to lose this contract. We typically don’t provide cost breakdowns to clients for this very reason.
Seeking Advice
Hey everyone, I’m facing a dilemma and would love your input. Right now, I’m working at a job with a salary that’s not quite enough. I had an interview today with another company that offers a significantly better salary, but the work hours are longer. My current job is from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., while the new position would be from 9:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Additionally, the new job is farther from my home.
I also want to return to practicing Karate, but I fear that the new job’s schedule will prevent me from attending classes. I’m struggling to decide whether I should make the switch to the new company. Any thoughts or advice?
Subject: Salary Increase Concerns: Need Your Advice
I recently received a salary increase from £28k to £30k, with the potential to reach £32k after billing an additional £50k. While I’m thrilled about this raise, there’s a catch: my company is increasing my commission threshold from £4k to £5k, while maintaining a 30% rate on earnings beyond that threshold.
With my new responsibilities of training two junior associates, this change concerns me. Instead of feeling more motivated, I feel like I’m losing out financially. The new threshold means that I’ll actually earn £300 less in the long run, based on the new structure.
I’m considering approaching my manager to discuss keeping my original commission structure, as it feels more rewarding given my current workload. I would appreciate any thoughts or advice on how to handle this situation. What do you think?
Job Market Resources Needed!

Additionally, if there are professionals or services that specialize in creating detailed job market reports or data analysis, I’m open to suggestions on where to find them or how to get in touch with their services.

Introducing my newly developed AI tool that can efficiently process thousands of CVs and conduct pre-screening interviews!
Many of my LinkedIn connections express a desire for feedback on every job application, while recruiters often find this unfeasible due to the sheer volume of CVs they handle for each position.
Imagine a customizable AI solution that can:
– Conduct high-level pre-screening interviews before an application is submitted, filtering candidates based on essential criteria.
– Process hundreds of CVs by aligning them with detailed job descriptions and comprehensive requirements.
– Offer customization options for the filtering process, including factors such as location, job type, skills, experience, and more.
I’ve created a proof of concept that I believe performs exceptionally well!

I’d love to hear your thoughts and any concerns you might have about using a tool like this!
