Good advice for any would be recruitment start up.
Plainly it makes sense to be wary, vigilant and aware. Starting up in the recruitment business is a big step to take. More specifically though it’s about watching your back office.
If you’re seriously contemplating starting up on your own you’re probably, in our experience, already heading up a team, or a Temp Desk. There’s no doubting, we’re sure, that you know the business. From establishing a relationship with key players at the client, to gaining the confidence of candidates, you’ve got it covered.
And every day you ‘make it happen’.
But where would you be without the systems?
The short answer is ‘stuck’! The admin systems are what makes it all work. However good you are at the job you need the technology, database, forms and documents that turn applications into placements. It’s not just about those nice people in the IT Department who come and turn it off and on again when things go wrong. It’s about the specialist, industry specific, back office technology without which a recruitment business is a lost cause.
Do you want to start up with systems that work from day one?
Of course you do! But with legal incorporation, premises, branding, website and marketing to sort there’s a lot else to be getting on with. And that’s without actually sorting the financial backing to get started in the first place.
There’ always that guy you know who’s good at IT. Yeah right. But is he good at recruitment systems? Probably not.
