Typically recruitment agencies earn a living by placing small overhead costs to the hiring company. Some even charge small placement fees to successful recruits. The hiring corporations, however, sometimes have strict requirements and, as clients or customers of the recruitment agency, their decision is final. Thus, the recruitment agency always tries to make sure that they send quality people. They profit more by successfully placing more applicants. The more successful the recruitment agency is, the more people they have to screen. Note that not all applicants can be placed. It is the recruitment agencies responsibility to weed them out. This makes applicant tracking and recruitment a serious business indeed.
An applicant tracking software is specially suited for this business. The Bullhorn system offers tracking of communications and history of candidate and matches placement orders with available candidates. Automatic alerts for all employees are generated when placement orders are finalized. Sometimes an applicant appears whose credentials are easily marketable. The agency will often search for a job for these hot prospects and the Bullhorn system covers this option also. Visit the website at www.bullhorn.com for further details.
