    5 Staffing Tools Every Recruiter Must Have

    The different elements of recruiting assignments include cold calling new clients, sourcing candidates, postings your jobs, reading resumes, and performing interviews, which can expend many hours daily.

    Many recruiters utilize technology to their maximum benefit to decrease your organizational workload and liberate yourself to concentrate on tasks that matter most.

    We believe every recruiter needs these five tools to speed up their workflow.

    Email finders

     

    Many tools authorize you to source emails for hiring managers and candidates. When you visit that person’s social profile, these tools display all known email addresses for a person.

    But not all email tools are designed equally. The precision of the results and the cost per email delivered are the most relevant benchmarks. Therefore, consider these two metrics when finding the best tools. Prophet, ContactOut, Lusha and Hiretual are a few email finders we recommend.

    Applicant tracking systems

    An applicant tracking system (ATS) is software that permits you to track an applicant’s progress. Therefore, as they move through your process from application to hire, you can follow their employment progression.

    However, despite the usefulness of the software, many recruiters don’t use it. Therefore they prefer to handle their prospects in a spreadsheet.

    While there are a few motivations, a recruiter may refrain from utilizing a formal ATS. The most typical response mentioned is that the systems they looked at don’t have all the functionality needed. There is no such thing as a perfect ATS for everyone. However, many great options exist to do almost everything you need. 

    “An ATS is a must have for a staffing or a recruiting agency. It enables staffing and recruiting agencies to keep track of not just their prospective candidates but also clients in an efficient way. Having all the data in one place makes it easier to find the perfect match.” Recruiting industry expert and CEO of AkkenCloud, Giridhar Akkineni.

    Scheduling

    One task that takes up way too much time for a recruiter is scheduling calls. How often have you sent an email with your availability, only to respond that none of the times work? 

    The simplest method to decipher this situation is a scheduling tool that merges with your online calendar.

    There are numerous choices available, so make certain to discover one that is straightforward to use and has rock-solid integration with all prevalent calendars like Google and Outlook 365. 

    Once you have your scheduler, all you are required to do is link your calendar with the service. Then the service provides you with a link you can email so they can book any available periods in your calendar. Calendly and ScheduleOnce are popular options.

    Video interviewing

    Video interviews should be simple, but often they are not surprisingly difficult to work. Asking a Luddite to install a tool with video chat qualifications like Skype can result in an hour of wasted time. At the same time, you politely try to walk them through what seems like an impossible task.

    Therefore this is where a sound video interviewing tool stands out. SparkHire, Interview Stream, and Odro are all prospects for the recruiter who desires to understand their candidate will be capable of joining without any problems.

    Data scrapers

     

    One of the most challenging aspects of a recruiter’s job is sourcing prospects. Of course, there are familiar mechanisms like LinkedIn, but numerous top-tier candidates do not have profiles. Therefore you are not even on their radar. A good data scraping tool helps find these individuals that fall in between the cracks. 

    In short, a data scraper authorizes you to proceed to a site and capture a massive amount of data. How does this work in practice? Let’s say you want to hire a top-tier JavaScript developer, but you have tapped out your resources. It appears nobody on LinkedIn is interested in the role. 

    You can discover an inventory of attendees for a JavaScript forum, scour the data and upload it to your CRM or ATS. In a matter of moments, you have a list of suitable candidates. Review the software Data Miner or Import.io for suitable data scrapers.

    The Bottom Line

    It should be clear now how valuable software tools can be in improving your recruiting processes. Incorporating technology into your workflow can significantly save your time. 

    Whether you require ATS, email finders, scheduling, video teleconferencing, or data scraper software, AkkenCloud is here to help you. If you are having trouble finding the specific software of your dreams, don’t hesitate to contact us.
