Recruitment without effective tools is like scouring a jungle without any equipment. Tough, experienced recruiters might still find their way to hidden treasures. But, it doesn’t have to be that difficult. Sometimes, a creative approach to candidate recruitment tools can make your recruiting job easier (and, maybe even more fun).

Here are some recruitment tools for you that can help you in your daily sourcing quests:

Portfolios

Looking at candidates’ work samples helps you find and screen people at the same time. A trained eye can quickly spot impressive portfolios. Below are good recruitment tool options to discover candidates’ work, especially designers and developers:

• Carbonmade

Carbonmade has millions of portfolios and projects by professionals from the creative arts (and it’s fun to browse through). You can investigate the work of designers, copywriters, photographers, architects and other creative types.

• Github

Github is a well-known platform for developers and a great place to look through candidates’ code and projects. If you’re hiring IT professionals, Github has a lot to offer.

• Behance

If you’re on a mission to hire the best creative professionals, then Behance’s huge network is a good option. While browsing portfolios and projects from all over the world, you can perform targeted searches according to schools, colors, and tools used for each project (like AutoCAD). You can post jobs on Behance too.

Semantics

Everyone could do with checking that their job descriptions are as good as they can possibly be. Here are our favorite free tools to do just that.

• Grammarly

Keep the Grammar Police off your back with this free chrome plugin that checks your grammar and spelling as you write online. What’s not to love?

• Hemingway

Want to write more succinct job descriptions? Head to Hemingway. Hemingway analyses the way that you write and the length of your sentences and then suggests ways to make your prose easier to read. Just like Hemingway himself.

Here Are 11 Things That IT Recruiters Should Know

Networking platforms

Communicating with active and passive candidates is a tough job. People network in all kinds of places, whether online or in-person. If you want to talk to, and meet with, great candidates, some websites that can help you:

• AngelList

AngelList is a platform for startups. Not geared towards sourcing passive candidates, but rather it can help you find quality hires. Candidates interested in the startup environment. They can browse through startups and communicate directly with founders through AngelList.

• Eventbrite

Where people host, promote and browse events by category and location. Using Eventbrite, you can choose events where you’re likely to find candidates who are interested enough in their profession to take time out to learn about the latest trends.

• Twitter

Twitter can be a great ally in so many ways. Reach out to those who tweet with hashtags relevant to your business (e.g. #HRTechConf) and participate in conversations. Twitter’s advanced search is also a good way to find relevant hashtags and people. 

• Facebook

Facebook provides easy and affordable ways to increase your applicant pool. Use the Facebook Directory to search for users, pages, groups, and applications.  You can post a job for free on the Facebook Marketplace. The ad requires basic information such as location, job category, subcategory, title, etc,. Facebook pages are free sources that enable you to share your business and products with the users. Facebook Ad is another option in which you can choose the exact audience that you are looking to target. The options are endless to how narrow a field you can define. Be careful to not make the criteria too specific or you may not get the applicants you want.

• LinkedIn

Start by building connections with people you already know. Former co-workers, current clients, local entrepreneurs and even friends and family. Because you never know who someone else may be connected too that could make for a top-notch candidate. Join relevant groups and interact with active members asking and answering questions. Use your network activity box (also known as a status box) to broadcast that you are hiring. “Looking for an IT consultant. If you know someone, even you. Contact me.” Check their profile to know about them before contacting them for an interview.

Referrals

Often, the best employees are brought in by other employees. It’d be ideal if your employees referred great people every day without any effort on your part. But, more often than not, companies can benefit from a systematic approach to employee referrals. Many recruitment tools can help:

• Employeereferrals.com

Employee referrals helps you get referrals from your employees. It sends messages and incentives to employees helping you monitor referrals and rewards. It aims to simplify it for employees to refer someone (in “just three clicks,” according to their website).

• Recruit’em

Recruit’em writes complex Boolean search strings for free. It allows you to search through social media such as LinkedIn, Xing and Twitter. Also when you don’t have enough time or patience to write long Boolean commands.

• People Search

Often, you stumble upon a profile on a social or professional network or a name referral but you don’t have enough information to contact them. People Search from Workable is a Chrome extension that can remedy that. People Search is a free sourcing tool takes seconds to look through multiple sources and provide you with a full profile with resume and contact information.
Most companies understand why hiring proactively is important. If you equip yourself with effective sourcing, email finders, and outreach recruitment tools, you can find your next great hire before your competition. 

Forums and talent communities

Forums are great places to find candidates. People engaged and can share their expertise. Look for highly knowledgeable and active users. If there is a rating system, look for high scoring users.

Social media posting

Did you know that posting on social media can improve your recruiting efforts? Posting regularly and interacting can attract people to your services. And, having a social media presence can make you appear more approachable and less spammy when you reach out to people.
You don’t constantly need your social media accounts open to make an impact. You can automate some parts of your social media recruiting strategy. You can use online recruitment tools to schedule your posts, measure statistics, and track your mentions.

Search engines

Search engines can help you find candidates even if they don’t use social media. You can do a Google resume search to discover qualified people. By using a strategic search, you can narrow down your results to the people who meet your client’s qualifications.

• Google Boolean operators

This isn’t a recruitment tool so much as a strategy. You can refine your web searches by using symbols and search operators in your search. By excluding items from your query, you get better search results that match what you are looking for.

Social search

Social media sites now have powerful search engines built into them. You can search for people based on their location, job, skills, interests, and more.

• Social search terms

Similar to a Google search, you can type certain things into social media sites to receive better results. Social media sites typically have an advanced search option that makes searching for specific types of people easier.

Automation

Automation in recruitment is one of the key themes of 2017. If your recruitment software doesn’t have any automated actions, then you might want to check out a modern alternative. The recruitment tools listed below help you to connect areas of your recruitment strategy that might otherwise be isolated.

• IFTTT

• Zapier

Like IFTTT, Zapier connects a number of popular Web Apps. While IFTTT is completely free, Zapier does charge for some things. The key differentiator: Zapier offers a deeper integration with a wider variety of web apps, including some CRMs.

We are one of Asia’s premium recruitment firm – SutraHR and have designed a Moroccan themed Lounge for our people making it a great place to work mixing pleasure under the same roof.
“The idea is to break the monotony of working in a fixed space and giving employees the liberty to work from the terrace lounge with Mumbai skylines giving them company. They can even discuss initiatives in the open air or just relax after a tiring day”, said Waqar Azmi, the founder of SutraHR when asked about the decision to open the lounge to the employees.
SutraHR recently converted its terrace into a Moroccan-themed lounge with the intention to provide an unwinding place while at work.
 

When Waqar was asked about the inspiration behind creating this beautiful lounge, he stated that a recent visit to Chefchaouen in Morocco left him spellbound. He was struck by its beauty and decided to convert the terrace of his office (which was unutilized during monsoon), into a lounge.
Waqar as a perfectionist he has personally cherry-picked the artifacts from Morocco and some antique shops in India and sourced the tiles for the lower seating area directly from Jodhpur. This surely
Way before the lounge opened, SutraHR has been in the forefront of starting new initiatives to keep its employees motivated and turn it into best place to work.
Some of the key initiatives include:

•    Walk with the CEO – a twice a week initiative, where Waqar takes someone from the company out for a walk to discuss their career, life etc.
•    Friday meet up with people, where they call over their ex-employees, friends, and bond and exchange ideas with each other.
•    Evening snacks get together, where either Waqar personally cooks for his employees or sources the best evening snacks from all over Mumbai.

According to him, an ideal employee is a person who is reliable, curious, or who would want to become an entrepreneur and look at the organization as a platform to learn the ropes of entrepreneurship.
Waqar wants to motivate his employees not just with exciting work but also with an inspiring workplace. That is why Sutra is known to have the coolest workplace in Mumbai, having been featured in renowned online publications and top business news channels.
