Recruiting & Staffing

Recruiters who keep candidate networks alive between requisitions.

Recruiting and staffing firms whose value is the network they build over years — and whose biggest waste is the candidates whose contact details quietly slip out of date.

The setup

Profile. A specialist recruiting firm focused on mid-senior hiring across two or three verticals.

Scale. Ten to fifteen consultants, plus a research team that maintains the candidate database.

Workflow. Consultants meet candidates at industry meet-ups, off-sites and coffee chats. Cards pile up; only the candidates linked to a live mandate make it into the ATS.

Before
  • Candidate cards turned into stale rows once the mandate closed
  • Consultants moving roles took their network with them, on paper
  • The same candidate was contacted by two consultants from the same firm
  • Quarterly nurture campaigns missed half the network because data was old
After
  • Every card a consultant collects is in the firm's database within seconds
  • Mandate-agnostic capture means the network keeps compounding
  • Duplicate flags surface before two consultants reach out to the same person
  • The research team enriches each contact with company size and seniority
Day-to-day outcomes

What actually changed.

Network retention

When a consultant leaves, the firm keeps the network — it lives in the system, not in their phone.

Faster sourcing

The first round of names for a new mandate comes from the existing database, not LinkedIn outreach.

Cleaner candidate experience

Candidates stopped getting parallel pitches from two consultants at the same firm, which protected the relationship.
