Moving agency to in house

Transitioning from Agency to In-House Recruitment

Hello everyone,

After spending two years at an agency in London, I’m looking to make the shift to in-house recruitment. While I appreciate my current company, the pressure of constant targets and a low base salary is taking a toll on my mental health and personal relationships.

I’m curious about the best strategies for breaking into in-house talent acquisition. Considering my experience, do you think two years is sufficient to make this transition? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Automatic application of my candidates

Automated Job Applications for My Candidates

I’m considering creating a tool that automates the application process for job openings that align with my candidates’ profiles.

This tool would anonymize resumes and profile descriptions while including a link to my contact information. I believe this approach could significantly boost my outreach efforts.

What are your thoughts? Do you think this could be an effective strategy?

Hate my job – sales?

Frustrated with My Job in Recruitment

Hi everyone!

I’ve been working as a 180 recruiter since graduating a few months ago, and I really dislike it. Sourcing candidates, especially when I’m expected to find 10 individuals with 10 years of experience for just $20k in a small town, is incredibly frustrating. My manager and the whole environment add to my dissatisfaction.

On the bright side, I thoroughly enjoy the phone conversations—persuading candidates to accept offers and negotiating is what I love most about this role.

Recently, I’ve been offered a Business Development Manager position at a local marketing agency, and I’m considering making the leap.

So, I’m wondering: Has anyone here transitioned from recruitment or sourcing to sales? How was your experience?

Tech Recruitment support needed (Help a new business)

Seeking Tech Recruitment Insights for a New Business

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out for your support as I navigate the early stages of my business, which has been operating for about a year now.

Having worked solo until recently, I’m finding it challenging to keep up with the evolving industry trends. I would greatly appreciate it if you could share some general statistics or key performance indicators (KPIs) related to acquiring new clients.

For instance, what are your benchmarks for outreach activities? Something like:

  • Sending 250 emails per week
  • Making 200 calls per week
  • Conducting 1 mass spec per week

How do these efforts translate into new client acquisitions? Just an example, but I’m eager to understand the metrics that can help me better define my personal targets.

Thank you so much for your assistance! Your insights will be invaluable.

Starting own business – UK

Starting My Own Business in the UK

Hello everyone,

I’m seeking some guidance on launching my own business and setting up a company structure.

I plan to start gradually while continuing my in-house job, and I’m trying to determine whether it would be more beneficial to open a limited company with the help of an accountant or to start as self-employed. Any advice on the logistical aspects of both options would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

A day in the life of a recruiter

A Day in the Life of a Recruiter

Hey recruiters!

I’m curious to know what your typical day entails, whether you work in-house or at an agency.

  • Do you find yourself busy with interviews and sourcing all day?
  • Or do you also have time to tackle HR tasks like process improvements or employee net promoter score initiatives?

It would be fantastic if you could share a breakdown of your day, hour by hour, or something along those lines! 😊

Temp Offer Advice

Temp Offer Advice

I typically focus on permanent recruitment, but I’m seeking clarification on handling temporary roles.

I have a client ready to offer a day rate for a position and they’re inquiring about the candidate’s expected rate.

When discussing the candidate’s expectations, should I include my desired margin percentage? For example, if the candidate expects £500 per day and I need a 20% margin, would it make sense to quote the client a rate of £600?

Additionally, should I inform the client that this figure includes my fees, or simply present the rate of £600 without further context?

Is a 20% margin considered too high? Have others experienced situations where clients revoked offers due to the margin fees being perceived as excessive?

How much should I charge for each req being filled as a freelance recruiter in Japan? (Offered commission based salary)

What would be a fair commission rate for each position filled as a freelance recruiter in Japan?

I’m considering a freelance recruiting opportunity with an agency that seeks assistance in connecting with Japanese candidates. They are located outside of Japan and are looking for a recruiter to help with a Japanese client, offering a commission-only salary structure.

I would appreciate insights from anyone with experience in Japan (or even outside) on what a reasonable fee would be. I will be working on around five requisitions.

Having roughly four years of recruiting experience and being fluent in both Japanese and English, I am eager to understand how to price my services appropriately. Thank you!

Retracted the offer upon negotiation????

Negotiated offer withdrawn???

I was in discussions with a company regarding their initial offer of $40/hour, and I proposed a counter of $45/hour. However, the HR representative responded with, “Sorry, we can’t offer a higher rate. Thank you for your time, and we wish you the best.”

This is the first time I’ve encountered such a response during negotiations. What are your thoughts on this?
