Recruitment leaders who want to get ROI from their recruitment tech, have marketing deliver viable candidates and leads, and make sure that their recruiters are super-productive, need to listen to this recruitment podcast…
Oh! And if as a recruitment leader, like many of my clients, you are looking to hire more recruiters, this podcast has a couple of great ideas to help you with your own recruitment strategy.
Straight Talking - No Messing - Advice for Recruitment Leaders
Do you know the value of your business?
A buyer will typically be looking at 60-70% of profits coming from temporary or contract recruiting.
Do you know how many of your recruiters quit last year simply because they did not have the training to do their job?
Do you know what your marketing function should be doing to generate the 4Cs? (Candidates, clients, colleagues, and cash?)
In this episode of the Recruitment Leaders’ Podcast, I'm delighted (understatement!) to be talking to Greg Savage. He offers some "straight talking - no messing - advice for recruitment leaders who want to be more successful".
I talked to Greg about:
What are the main changes he feels have happened in the recruitment industry?
What are most recruitment leaders doing differently at the moment?
Where is the “danger”?
What are investors who are looking to buy your business looking for?
What does he think of permanent dominant-recruitment businesses?
What could add the most value to your recruitment business? And devalue it?
How can we attract the best recruiters?
What 3 things are crucial for recruiters to be trained in?
What are the three skills every recruitment leader is going to need in the next 3-5 years?
This is seriously one of my favourite recruitment leader interviews and I think every recruitment leader (current or budding) will benefit from spending 30 minutes listening to this and planning their strategy.
We talked about how there isn’t enough process around recruitment CRM systems. Listen to this episode of the Recruitment Leaders' podcast to hear more.

Automation for Recruitment Managers: WIIFM?
Automation can be about data health, email marketing, candidate and client care, and "de-administration" of recruitment. But often, the focus is on individual processes, or people (candidates, clients, colleagues), and not on the recruitment business itself.Hence, I want to explore things from a recruitment leaders "selfish" perspective - the "WIIFM" - what's in it for me?Or rather, what's in it for managers?Automation ROIAs part of the over 400 automation projects we've delivered, where we train, coach, and do hands-on automation building, we're often asked about ROI - return on investment. There's focus on leads, sales, re-generating candidates, increasing website visits, reduced costs elsewhere (eg. LinkedIn / Job boards). We're also asked about how automation can "do more" and give our clients the edge over their competition and help them get ready for AI, and how it can help them run their businesses.3 Ways Automation Can Help Recruitment Leaders1. Create Focus on Revenue-Generative TasksWith so much data, and countless systems and processes, you'll often need to rely on the organisational capabilities, will, and skill, of your recruiters and resourcers. On a crazy-busy day, or a tough market, and with perhaps inexperienced recruiters, that may be too much to ask.Hence leaders - use automation to focus your recruiters and resourcers on the things that matter. For example:Who to call and when.Proactively managing accounts before they become "at risk".Lead conversion.Driving the job management process and not leaving it to the candidate and client to "mess it up".Generating referrals from newly placed candidates, and newly invoiced clients.2. Tracking / Managing / Escalating Poor Performance / ActivitySometimes, recruiters can focus on the wrong activities, drown in "admin", or waste time on external systems, and recruitment process becomes too busy to be effective. Or perhaps they just lack experience to proactively manage their pipelines.Also, with WFH and hybrid, activity can be difficult to see / measure.Hence, leaders ask us to help build automations to track activity, drive performance. For example:Ensuring jobs are being proactively managed and notify management of the ones that are being forgotten.Tracking who is engaging with your brand, visiting your website and opening your emails.Understanding loyalty of your candidates and sales contacts.Removing irrelevant data that you no longer work with, which can slow your recruiters sourcing process.3. Navigating / Mitigating LeaversRecruiters leaving can often be distracting, time consuming, and risky - and it can often be a sucker punch!Hence leaders can use automation to "shift" data, clients, candidates, relationships, and pipeline to other recruiters. Data and pipelines are managed and current relationships are secured. For example:Reassigning placements to another recruiter or desk to continue nurturing.Identifying and re-assigning high value, active and engaged sales contacts to a new or existing team member.Closing old and inactive jobs to ensure you have an accurate view of your current pipeline.Automation - What's in it for Managers?For those of you with automation - how are you using it to drive your business?For those of you without automation, take a moment to consider how the 3 use cases above could help you navigate the next 30/60/90 days and beyond, and help you strengthen your data, people, pipelines, and business.Automation BuddyWe are Bullhorn and Automation experts set on helping ambitious recruitment businesses who want to increase speed and sales.READ ABOUT OUR BULLHORN VISION SERVICEREAD ABOUT OUR AUTOMATION BUDDY SERVICE
