23% of the top 100 recruiters use bobcheck!
The proof is in the pudding. Almost 25% of top agencies use bobcheck
Recently, Recruiter magazine released their Hot 100 List and we are pleased to see that 23% of those listed are using bobcheck. (So far…let’s see if this number increases next year!).
The Hot 100 features the top agencies operating in the UK today, described by Recruiter as the ‘most efficient and profitable recruitment businesses’ out there.
To be a leader in your field, you have to continually innovate. We’ve seen huge shifts in the employment market in the past five years, but the recruitment businesses who continue to thrive are the ones who can respond quickly to change, and who embrace new technologies and processes.
bobcheck is one of these new tools. We came onto the scene just three years ago, yet already almost a quarter of top performing agencies are using us.
Why do top agencies use bobcheck?
Often, the primary reason why recruitment agencies use bobcheck is to identify ‘behind our back’ hires (a.k.a ‘bobs’) and the resulting missed fees. The tool automates this process, saving tonnes of time compared to manually tracking all sent CVs and candidates (which would be near-impossible for the average agency handling 13,000 candidates each year).
The goal is usually to then recover the missed fee in some form and, crucially, to prevent this from happening again.
Alongside ongoing innovation, leading agencies perform so well because they’re constantly learning and developing. We encourage our customers to view bobcheck as a training resource as well as a revenue protection tool, using the data we provide to review how opportunities were missed and what steps can be taken to prevent reoccurring.
bobcheck stats and stand-out features:
- 1 in 2000 CVs sent results in a missed fee.
- £1.5m+ in missed fees found to date.
- bobcheck can process 10,000 candidates in just 45 minutes
- When customers connect using our Bullhorn/JobAdder API, they get the chance to load up to one year’s data for free, on day one.
- Customisable notification system to senior management, not the agents.
How can I use bobcheck?
Most of our customers on the Hot 100 use of our Bullhorn or JobAdder API. We also have an integration with Vincere coming soon.
One Hot 100 customer, however, uses the CSV Upload feature to manually load old data each month and then lets bobcheck work its magic. No matter which Applicant Tracking System (ATS) you use, there’s a way for you to work with bobcheck.
Do you want to join the top agencies using our tool?
