Looking for advice! I’m currently the only recruiter at a Tech consulting company.
I’ve built them up and placed half the company, and have no WLB — I would like to switch to another tech company. So — in an industry where Recruiters are slammed, how do you as a recruiter stand out/get in touch? I’m eyeing GitHub, GitLab, and Microsoft Partners but I’ve heard their TA departments are slammed

So where do you come in?

Our pre-vetted candidates want to be hired by great tech companies & startups for roles in tech, product, marketing and executive positions.

Please DM me or comment so I can DM you if you:

- put the candidate’s experience first ❤️

What are some strategies or tactics you have developed which are very successful in small markets (I'm talking SUPER small)? I feel like I've thrown all my darts and some markets still can't find talent.

Some things I've tried, here in Canada:

- non-profit/employment centers
- indeed headunting
- getting field/hiring managers to post around town
- getting on local FB groups
- local schools if there are any
- physical posters
- newspaper/old media (not great)

Ideas needed 😭

On June 21, I had an interview with two managers to become an HR Coordinator. Everything went smoothly, and I got good feedback, so I moved on to the management round of interviews. The recruiter initially stated that I would go through two rounds; however, between June 22-June 23, there were really five rounds, and I am still awaiting the scheduling of one more interview, even though it is now July. I'm becoming frustrated at this point. I’m still actively interviewing with other companies.
