Seeking Recommendations for Recruitment Software for Our Small Sales Ops Agency
Hello everyone!
We’re a small, women-owned and operated sales ops agency (www.grooveconsulting.io) and typically hire 2-5 sales representatives per month for our clients. We’re on the lookout for an affordable recruitment system that meets the following criteria:
-
Indeed Integration: Pulling candidates from Indeed is currently quite challenging, so we need a platform that simplifies this.
-
LinkedIn Integration: We don’t have LinkedIn Recruiter but do sponsor job postings, so integration here would be beneficial.
-
Cost-Effective: As a small agency, we don’t require extensive features—just the essentials.
-
Candidate Filtering: We receive hundreds of applications for each role, and it would be helpful to ask specific questions (e.g., “Do you have supply chain experience?”) to filter candidates more effectively and reject those who don’t meet the criteria.
-
Client Access: Ideally, there should be a way to provide clients with a view of the candidates in various stages without disclosing all details, allowing them to see resumes and candidate status.
-
Resume Scanning: Currently, we are using AirTable, which can feel a bit tedious, so we’re looking for a more efficient way to review resumes.
-
Communication Templates: Templates for rejection notices, next steps, etc., would be very useful, and if we could organize them by client name, that would be even better.
-
Interview Scorecards: This feature would be a nice addition, though it’s optional.
-
SMS Interview Outreach: An additional feature for reaching candidates via SMS for interviews would also be helpful.
If you have any recommendations and could provide estimated costs, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
