What Can Recruitment Leaders Learn from Homer Simpson?

This is a valuable read for recruitment leaders who want to grow their business through systems and data, as well as their people. (And want to avoid saying "Doh!")Recruitment leaders investing in technology aren’t simply buying a handy tool. They’re investing in the sales pipelines and the future of their staffing companies too!But how can you ensure that your CRM and /or automation tools deliver and don't just become data-comfort-blankets supported by expensive third-party systems like LinkedIn and job boards?(And how do you not succumb to Homer Simpson's "dig up stupid" model...?)CRM = Too Much Data = Sales PreventionTraditionally recruitment CRMs have been datadumps with vast collections of candidates, contacts, jobs. They make it so easy to collect data, and hide it! They often turn well-meaning recruiters into administrators! (Doh!)It's never been easier to collect data. But you don't get good boy/girl stickers for data - you get judged on your profit. With the "too much data, not enough information" model, recruiters often have to wade through reams of data every day. It's paralysing and ironically prevents sales! (Doh!)Hence, your CRM adoption, and how you automate your processes and create time for real recruitment has never been more critical.But with the Bullhorn ROI and automation projects my team deliver, we often see a disconnect between data, people, and processes. It's almost like they all act independently of each other. (Doh!)For example (Doh! x 3):76% of the marketers we polled admitted not having viable access to their CRM.Recruiters we spoke to revealed that 80% of the placements they made were on their CRM all along (but sourced from a third-party system).Too many leaders I speak to want their recruiters to "get on the phone", but the volumes of data the recruiters have, and the systems they are not trained on makes this a chore.This is definitely not the CRM1st approach we advocate. We advise monetising your data, automating your processes, and freeing up and training your recruiters to recruit and sell. Alternatively, you can keep paying for LinkedIn premium licences and Job Boards. (Doh!)Data - Dig Up Stupid!Do you suffer from too much data, not enough candidates (or clients)? Try this simple data segmentation trick, or data layers “hack”. (I call it my "dig up stupid" model. Thanks Homer Simpson.)CRM + Data + Automation = Sales-Enabled RecruitersLook at your business - your systems - your data - your people. As yourself:How many candidates does your average recruiter need?How many contacts does your average recruiter need?How much data does your marketing / automation function need to nurture so your recruiters can focus on speedily converting / reconverting candidates and clients?Which processes can you automate to free up your recruiters to recruit?What training do your recruiters need to help them drive a sustainable pipeline? Then flash forward 6 months. What do you want to see in your recruitment business?Ideally:Your "way" - your process, running on clean data...Being driven by smart systems (and ideally automation)...Being operated by trained humans.Then flashback to today - what do you need to start doing now, so in 6 months you're not saying "Doh!"?Bullhorn ROI + Trained Happy Recruiters = More SalesWe pride ourselves on helping recruitment leaders achieve Bullhorn ROI.

4 Things to Help Recruiters Bill More Sales

Every recruitment leader I speak to wants stronger pipelines, speedier placements, accountable recruiters, and more sales!But often at least one of these 4 elements is a struggle. Here are my thoughts to help recruitment leaders connect their tech, people, data, and process to drive revenue.Running a Recruitment Business Is a Struggle?I often see recruitment businesses suffering:Too much data, not enough information.Too many applicants, not enough candidates.Too many jobs, not enough placements.Too many systems, not enough process.This creates unnecessary lag, enables your competitors to win, and limits sales.Now is the time to seriously accelerate effective tech adoption and improve recruiter performance.But with world events, economic frustrations, tech evolving at an accelerated rate, and "new normal" changing every day, how do you do this? 1. Recruitment Tech: All the Gear, No Idea?Technology can and should free up your recruiters and drive your business, but perhaps due to:Massively distracting market conditions and world events.WFH, hybrid, remote working.... you're investing in tech which delivers little ROI, and may even be seen by your team as sales-prevention technology? Adoption is poor, and if you have 20 staff, you have 20 different ways of delivery.For example, as part of one of our Bullhorn ROI projects my team reviewed a 25-person recruitment business with a tech stack costing £150k+.) The business wanted to be more effective at attracting, sourcing, engaging, converting, and retaining. They had some great tech, lots of data, and passionate recruiters… but poor adoption and no "way".Tech has a job to do. Be clear on what that is and work to realise your expectations. But be careful not to spite yourself by turning tech off that hasn't been adopted correctly.2. People: The Problem in Between the Chair and the Keyboard?Are you suffering from PIBKAC?Are your recruiters engaging with tech, driving sales, consulting in their space, or simply administrating?Is your culture geared up to get the best from your people? Or does it drive PIBCAK?Ask yourself - Is your recruitment training:Induction and "off you go" (high failure rate).Designed for robots - "they've been told once and need to remember" (hope is not a strategy).Continuous and part of your culture - they are only human and need constant development.Hint - point 3 is the most successful antidote to PIBKAC. If you're struggling to adopt tech and drive sales, think about what you need to do to eradicate PIBCAK. Continuous training is way cheaper than very little training resulting in lots of missed opportunities and high attrition.3. Data: Everything, Everywhere, All at OnceWhat state is your data in?Do you make money from it, or do you need to spend money finding it?Do you have to advertise your jobs and waste cash on LinkedIn Recruiter to find candidates that you likely already have?Are your recruiters data / community managers or just data collectors and hoarders? Is FOMO driving poor trust / data health / ROI?Or is your Bullhorn system "1st" for sourcing and sales? Have you automated the administration and dirty data out of your business so your recruiters can thrive?4. Process: Develop and Drive Your "Way"What is your process? What is your "way"?If you have 20 staff, do you have 20 ways? If someone new joins do they find it easy to deliver your way, or is it not clear enough?Does your tech and training drive your way, or contradict it?Are you using automation to enable your way? Is your process aligned with how tech has evolved and how the recruitment market has changed? Or is your recruitment and sales process reliant on the good will and skills of a few naturally gifted high performers? Recruitment Leaders! Within a Year You Could...Now's the time to review your tech, people, data, and process.Perhaps take one workflow at a time and tighten it up, or even innovate it. (My team can help you do this via a Bullhorn ROI project.)Take each workflow and spend a couple of months driving it. How much more could you bill if you are smarter with your sourcing, BD, account management, and candidate management?Start now, and within a year you could have it nailed! Imagine what your business would be like now if you'd started this a year ago.Imagine how you'll feel in a year if you don't do anything...Bullhorn ROI + Trained Happy Recruiters = More SalesWe help recruitment leaders achieve Bullhorn ROI.

9 Reasons Why Recruiters Need to Code Their Data (and Why Boolean Sucks!)

Data, a recruiter's best friend (and worst nightmare), is one of their most precious assets. But are you missing a trick in making it super-valuable and easy to make money from?Clean data, coupled with time, and a robust process, boosted by systems, makes for a slick and repeatable pipeline of work.But, uncoded recruitment data may be holding you back. To Code or Not to Code... That Is the QuestionA client who enquired about our Bullhorn1st journeys asked me:Why should I code my Bullhorn data? So-and-so says I should just use Boolean for sourcing.This prompted me to respond to him with a list outlining that he should indeed code his data... I'm fixated on working with recruiters who want a Bullhorn 1st culture so I hope you find my reasons to code your data useful.Automation needs to work with structured data. i.e. coded fields. It doesn’t currently work with Boolean.True: Coded data is more reliable as it's the Recruiter's qualification of a candidate, not just the candidate's own, often aspirational, opinion of themselves. False: A significant issue with “Boolean Only” is that you can search for something specific (Service Engineer) and get back hundreds of results of mentioning this phrase, but they are not the candidates you're looking for. These false positives drive “let’s not use Bullhorn” behaviours. LinkedIn and job boards do very well from that mentality.Wasted cash: When you don't code your data, your recruiters trust it less, and you then may have to waste money (and time) on job boards, advertising and LinkedIn. Easier to keep clean: With structured coded data and automation, you can ask candidates to update their codes and use this search criteria to quickly match to jobs. Match to jobs: Bullhorn's Semantic Match needs coded data to work effectively. (Semantic match finds candidates to match your jobs... nice!)Call lists - "speccing out": An often underutilised feature of Bullhorn is to match the code of what the client is looking for to your candidate database. You can create call lists from this feature.Sell your business: If you're looking to sell your recruitment business, your data set will be valued. Coded, quantifiable data is more valuable than a larger unquantifiable data dump.USP! Warm Makes You Hot!And finally, my 9th reason recruiters need to code their data.When a client hires you to recruit, they aren't hiring you to do what they can (theoretically) do for themselves (i.e. post on job boards, advertise, etc.). They are hiring you for your USP, which is your talent pool. You need to speedily access it. You need to keep it warm. You need to:Own itWork itMake it desirableCharge for itThe accuracy of your data, and the speed at which you can find it, nurture it, and work it is the real value you add, and what will differentiate you from your competitors. It will make it easier for your recruiters to recruit, and salespeople to sell.Boolean only just won't cut it. Get coding!(Oh, and if you have Automation, call us! We can help you code up your data with our Automation Turbo offering. Don't turn your recruiters into administrators and get them manually coding. Let them recruit.)ARRANGE A CALL BACKBullhorn1stWe're fixated on helping recruiters be Bullhorn1st. First for sourcing and selling.

We’re passionate about recruitment awards! And we're passionate about recruiters having easy wins to help them generate more speed and pipeline.But you needn't enter an award to generate serious ROI.

Nurture the SaleSo, use industry awards to spot the lead and nurture the opportunity.1. Speedily research which awards are prevalent in your niche sectors.2. Plot the dates into your diaries (the submission dates, shortlist dates, date of the event, day after the event).3. Make a noise, connect with the VIPs, shout out about these events - they are important to your niche sectors.4. Use this data by at least sending LinkedIn messages to the VIPs of these businesses when they are shortlisted, and then begin networking using your CRM and automation.5. Have targets and goals to convert these high-growth businesses into retained clients.Clients entering awards are "sure things" - be sure to have them in your BD and account management pipeline.Plus, which candidates are signposted in these awards? Who can you source?Which Awards Should You Source and Generate Leads From?When it comes to point 1 above think about how you can easily find the awards in your sector. You can:Search Google - eg. "Teaching Awards France".Check the trade bodies in your sector - they often host awards.Ask your candidates and clients.
