Passive Job-seekers Archives

The job market is tough for everyone. The economy is improving and companies are starting to hire again – but unemployment is down and there is stiff competition for qualified candidates. Traditional recruiting is expensive and many companies are eager to find cost-effective alternatives to recruiting firms or job boards. Those searching for alternatives that provide real results need to consider social recruiting. Social media use has grown exponentially and with “millennials” coming on board, online social activity is everything. It only makes sense that social media is the perfect place for companies to find great candidates to fill an increasing number of open positions.

Referrals are still the best source of new employees with a much higher rate of success than other methods, but most internal company referral programs don’t offer as much as a well-executed social-recruiting strategy.

Through social recruiting, you don’t have to wait for a candidate to find you, you can find them. Social recruiting lets you identify those valuable passive candidates who are already employed but may be willing to relocate to another job if it’s a greater opportunity. It’s like an online recruiting fair – with no gatekeepers. There are many other perks of social recruiting over conventional recruiting methods.

Reflik is the newest way for companies to find candidates through social media and since a lot of companies – and many recruiters – don’t understand how to effectively use social recruiting, Reflik takes a good deal of the work out of this complex process.

Reflik helps you by automating part of the social recruiting burden by making it easier to:

Use LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and other platforms to identify candidates
Contact and start direct interaction with those candidates
Increase your efficiency
Track the hiring process

Recruiting through social media can hasten the hiring process by providing you with those valuable referrals that fit your company better. You can reach passive candidates more easily and source new employees in a different, more efficient and less expensive way.

Reflik helps you remove the geographic barriers that you may have in traditional job listings – like the “location” requirement that filters out your listing on many job boards due to the searcher’s current location. We also automate the process, so that your contact and subsequent interaction is simple, transparent and tracked.

Most employers know that referrals are the best source of new employees. Research has shown that since referrals are essentially “pre-screened,” they are often faster to hire, fit better with the company culture, and stay at the company longer. Despite knowing that referrals are better, many companies have a hard time finding enough candidates because they rely on in-house referrals and the choices are limited.

Posting a job is free, using it to recruit new hires is free. Employers only have to pay a referral fee if a successful hire is made. Employers aren’t risking anything by using our service – and even when a successful match occurs, it is often much less expensive than most other methods of recruiting.

1. Access More Job Listings

Reflik has top companies listing jobs on our platform. We offer an advantage to companies because job postings are free up front. The company specifies the referral reward – and pays it when a match is made. There is no risk to the company – but recruiters get access to jobs that may not be available other places. Recruiters don’t have to get “approved” vendor status and have equal opportunity to match a candidate to any open job on our system.

2. Match by Algorithm

The Reflik system is built on a revolutionary platform with an automatic matching algorithm that can match the skills and experience of candidates in your resume database to the requirements of our job listings – and identify matches for you. We increase your efficiency by eliminating the requirement for individual searches – or reliance on your shortlist of who is really “looking.”

3. Automated Contact

Our system can automate your email contacts. Once a potential job match is made, you have the ability to let us send the email – using our language or yours. You can also use the unique link that we generate for each job to manually notify candidates through direct messaging on LinkedIn and Facebook, Twitter posts, or Facebook page posts. Anytime that link is used – it tracks back to your recruiting account so when a successful hire is made – you get the referral reward.

4. Candidate Tracking System

Instead of going it alone and tracking candidate progress and payment status, Reflik does that for you. You can follow your candidate every step of the way. When a candidate you referred is successfully hired and the company referral fee is paid, you get paid automatically. No invoicing, no tracking – no problems.

5. Recruit Passive Job-Seekers

Active candidates are “looking” for a job and ready to take one right away. These are certainly a resource – but there are a lot more “passive” candidates out there. These are the people who have a job – but might consider a change if the right opportunity comes along. Using our matching algorithm, you can identify those possibilities a lot more efficiently. You can also reach out to connections, friends and followers with an open post on your page or account – making your chance of finding those lucrative passive job-seekers more often.

6. More Time for You

Because so much of our system is automated and efficient, you spend less time on the tedious, manually-driven part of your job. This gives you more time to network and find additional contacts to recruit.

We were built by recruiters, for recruiters so we know what your challenges are and how to solve them. See our video, check-out our Independent Recruiters page or sign-up for free, today!
