Two markets, one business, opposite needs

Websites and matching systems for recruitment agencies, built around the fact that candidates and clients want completely different things from the same site.

A recruitment agency has two audiences with opposing needs. Candidates want to see roles immediately and apply in under two minutes from a phone; clients want to see credibility, sector knowledge and evidence you can fill a role. One page cannot serve both, and most agency sites try.

The operational drag is application handling. CVs arrive as attachments, get stored inconsistently, and the same candidate is contacted twice about the same role by two consultants, which is the fastest way to lose a good one.

The search side is not separate from that. Candidates search job titles plus a location. Clients search for recruitment agencies plus a sector.

How a placement moves through a recruitment agency

A placement passes through four hands, and the good candidates are lost at whichever hand-off is slowest.

  1. Taking the role

    Job specs arrive as notes from a phone call, so a structured intake captures salary, must-haves and interview dates before the advert goes live.

  2. Applications and screening

    CVs stack up unread in a shared inbox, so each application lands in one queue with an owner and a status.

  3. Shortlist and interviews

    Interview times bounce between candidate, client and consultant, so slots are offered and confirmed in one message.

  4. Placement and fee

    Start dates confirmed by phone get invoiced late, so the placement record raises the fee invoice on the start date.

What people in this trade ask us

Can it connect to our applicant tracking system?
Usually yes. If your system has no interface worth using, we say so and price the alternative rather than building on a promise.
Should job listings be indexed by Google?
Yes, with the right structured data. It is one of the few places where doing the technical work properly produces measurable candidate volume.
How do we stop double-contacting candidates?
Deduplication at the point of application and one visible owner per candidate. Both are simple; the absence of both is what causes it.
How long should we keep candidate CVs?
Only as long as you have a reason and the candidate's consent, and data protection law sets the frame for that. The system can flag records that have gone stale and remove them on a schedule, so nobody has to remember.
Can candidates keep their own details up to date?
Yes. A candidate login lets them upload a new CV and change their availability, which keeps the database current without consultant time.

The infrastructure under it

Application Hosting

The job board and candidate portal take their heaviest traffic the hour a batch of roles goes live.

What one contract covers

  • One contract. The build, the infrastructure and the work that brings people to it, on one invoice.
  • A named team. The person on the first call stays on the project. No account managers, no handoffs.
  • Operated, not delivered. We keep it running after launch: patching, backups, monitoring and the phone when it breaks.
  • European hosting. Servers in Europe, run by us, with the data staying where you expect it to.
  • Monthly reporting. What changed, what it cost and what it produced, in language you can forward to a board.
  • No lock-in. The code, the domains and the accounts are yours. Leaving is a handover.
