Like many other fast-paced businesses where speed, agility, institutional memory, and intelligence are paramount, sustained success in the recruitment industry now depends on the agency’s ability to leverage technology to fuel profitability. Gone are the days when a core team of dedicated professionals armed only with a legal pad, a mobile phone, and a desktop computer could sift through job orders, make placements, and scribble billing notes for the office admin to process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today\u2019s recruitment agencies are technology-driven operations that maintain sophisticated back-office systems to handle applicant tracking, payroll, invoicing, and interactions with a multitude of job boards and VMS platforms. Recruitment agencies seeking long-term success must perform a tricky dance: they must find a way to effectively <\/span>leverage<\/span><\/em>\u00a0technology without actually <\/span>becoming<\/span><\/i> a technology company.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the most interesting aspects of my role as a Solution Consultant for Bullhorn is that I have an opportunity to engage with our customers and prospects on a daily basis. I have a front-row seat to the innermost workings of recruitment agencies in action and I continue to be amazed by the unique workflows and ingenuity at work to drive revenue. At this point, I think I\u2019ve seen it all.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a former executive responsible for the operations at a medium-size recruitment agency, I am not always successful at stopping the cringe that overtakes me when faced with mistake-prone manual processes, time-consuming duplicate data entry, \u201cpayroll on a spreadsheet\u201d, and inadequate database search capability. As soon as you enter the office of a recruitment agency where it\u2019s still 1989, you can practically sense the frustration and inefficiency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Universally, leadership knows that the old way of doing things is inhibiting scale, increasing operating expenses, and, most importantly, dampening the morale of the employees. They know operations and margins could be better but they just don’t know how to transition to a modern information infrastructure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, I\u2019ve visited recruitment agencies that exhibit \u201cnot invented here\u201d syndrome in a big way. These are the companies that take great pride in inventing every tool, process, technology, and system used by their people. There\u2019s usually a very impressive on-site data center to tour as well as a section of the office dedicated to IT professionals, including software engineers, system testers, webmasters, and database architects. These are the folks home-brewing their own applicant tracking systems, racking up the servers and configuring the firewalls, and trying to figure out how to integrate their data, run payroll, or gain access to reporting. It\u2019s all a very expensive proposition and, much more often than not, the whisper is along the lines of, \u201cWell, the system is slow and doesn\u2019t really work the way we\u2019d like. Oh, and it goes down a lot.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Contrast these exaggerated examples with smart leadership managing the most successful recruitment agencies in today\u2019s connected, mobile, always-on world who realise that the right technology mix is required to serve clients, attract motivated and talented workers, and achieve financial goals. The recruitment industry does require substantial use of technology assets but it does not have to be overwhelmingly complex, the technology does not have to reside on-premise, and there\u2019s no reason to build systems from scratch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Optimally, the right IT underpinnings should be a true investment that agencies make in themselves to open new markets, improve business agility, and gain new business insight. Fortunately, there\u2019s a clear way forward that allows agencies to transition to new platforms seamlessly, integrate disparate systems in a very reliable way, and eliminate the burden of capital equipment purchases, system support costs, and in-house development. Recruitment agencies need to be professional, sharply focused organisations delivering valuable workforce solutions to the client base – not technology companies themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cloud technologies, high-speed networks, and SaaS (software-as-a-service) offerings present recruitment agencies with an amazing opportunity to select from a menu of technology solutions that can be deployed rapidly, tied together through the use of advanced APIs (application programming interfaces), and exist only in the cloud.\u00a0 The new world of cloud-based services means that capital expenditures can drop to near zero, service platforms can be purchased \u201coff the shelf\u201d with low technology risk and customised to meet specific needs, and services can scale upon demand to meet growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am admittedly biased, but let\u2019s consider the ATS as the center of the universe for recruitment companies. As the <\/span>most recommended ATS Vendor in SIA\u2019s Global Staffing Survey<\/span><\/a>, Bullhorn serves as a core platform – the basis of a unique tech stack that can create a competitive advantage by helping recruitment agencies leverage technology as a key differentiator.<\/span><\/p>\n

So when considering how successful recruitment agencies leverage technology, it\u2019s not only to be competitive but to create opportunity. Agencies are vying for the same clients and candidates. Technology is the differentiator that provides the edge with cloud-native applications, APIs, and secure data management all combining to shape the future of the recruitment industry.<\/span><\/p>\n
