Dear recruiter,
Have you ever wondered how come other recruiters can make so many placements and earn thousands and thousands of dollars in commissions?
It's not because they graduated Harvard or Stanford.
It's not because they hustle 70-hour work weeks.
It's not because they work for an international staffing agency.
While working with and training hundreds of recruiters over the last year, I noticed those who perform best excel in these three areas:
1. They have access to great clients that continuously keep hiring.
2. They have access to tools and talent pools that average recruiters don't bother to take advantage of.
3. They have deep knowledge about IT roles and can match IT candidates with the right IT vacancies.
IT recruitment is very predictable and repeatable...
...if you know WHAT to do and HOW to do it!
But don't worry, it's not any rocket science!
I've seen recruiters who couldn't ask a single good question about a job requirement and 2 months later killed it with deep technical knowledge!
Just look at this one from my recent group:
Imagine how will her life change now with her new deep knowledge!
If she only makes ONE more placement per month... it's 12 per year... and that's a lot of money in extra income!!
Look, these are commissions (bounties) earned by remote tech recruiters who submit qualified candidates for international clients and agencies:
Now, I've got some good news for you as well!
You can start working for high-tech companies and agencies in the US and EU fully remotely... even if you don't have your own clients just yet.
They offer bounties to "Bounty Hunters" who can submit qualified candidates.
Just start using the right strategies and tools to close more positions and get commissions for hired candidates as well!
To be really successful and earn the bounties, you'll need:
To FIND Candidates Quickly
We've got you covered!
Every Thursday, we organize a Sourcing Webinar where you can learn how to find candidates in the most efficient way.
We discuss strategies and develop advanced Boolean searches such as this one for a full-stack web & mobile engineer:
If this looks a bit difficult, don't worry, we've got your back!
...because I have already created Boolean searches for all common IT positions and you can now use our Boolean Search Generator to just flush the keywords for you:
To be really successful and earn the bounties, you'll also need:
To Find Candidates' Email Addresses
You'll probably approach prospective candidates on LinkedIn.
That's fine, but 60-80% of those you reach out to will NOT respond.
In order to increase your conversions, you'll need to follow-up with prospective candidates.
Sending an email as a follow-up to your LinkedIn message works very well!
But to get the email addresses, you wonder, right?
To support fellow recruiters, we've built another software tool which integrates with ContactOut and can reveal email addresses based on LN URLs:
It's called "Email Finder" for a reason :)
To be really successful and earn the bounties, you'll also need:
To Build Your Own Talent Pool
Your database (talent pool) is going to be your greatest asset.
It's very important so I'll repeat it again.
Your database (talent pool) is going to be your greatest asset.
Just imagine you see a job requirement like this with a bounty (commission) of 2,800 EUR:
It may look a bit hard to find suitable candidates if you don't know any PHP fullstack web developers.
But now imagine you've worked on building your talent pool and you already know 500 PHP fullstack web developers.
You have their emails, phone numbers, CVs, ...
And they know you as well because you exchanged a few messages on WhatsApp already!
Wouldn't it be a piece of cake for you to quickly reach out to them and submit at least five candidates out of those 500?
Exactly...
And that's why we've build another software tool called Talent Pool Manager that can help you build and manage your list of prospective candidates for the most demanded IT roles:
As I mentioned above, finding IT candidates and finding them a new job is not a rocket science.
Especially if you know that in the next 2-3 months, clients WILL open these positions and you can already prepare.
You can choose one-two positions, be proactive, and connect with prospective candidates already today:
We'll help you build the talent pool so you have a higher chance of closing those vacancies.
In fact, we believe that
"ANYONE Can Do It With The Right Support!"
And that's why we provide substantial support to fellow IT recruiters:
Every Monday at 3:00pm CET, we organize a weekly call to discuss client's candidates and recruiting priorities.
Every Thursday at 5:00pm CET, we organize sourcing webinars to learn how to find qualified candidates for the highly-demanded IT roles.
Every day, our recruiters update on Slack status about candidates in the pipeline... because we know feedback is important!
If ANYONE can do it with the right support, then YOU can do it as well!
And I'll be your biggest fan...
With my best mind maps, sourcing webinars, and video replays:
I believe you can do it with
– the right support & knowledge,
– the right tools & talent pools,
– and enough JDs to work on!
So, if you feel like all you need is a new opportunity to put all the pieces together, we've got something special for you today:
