When starting up a recruitment agency, what type of recruitment software should I buy?

Starting up your own recruitment agency is an exciting and daunting time for even the most knowledgeable recruiter. The thought of going it alone could fill you both with anticipation and an eagerness to get stuck in!

Finding a good software provider to look after your bookings and timesheets, manage candidates, consolidate invoices and track information for Agency Workers Regulations is essential to ensuring you are not distracted from selling and making a real go of your new business.

However recruitment software is a long-term decision. Choosing the right technology partner to ensure a successful start to your new recruitment business is essential, but it can be difficult with a limited budget. Start-ups may struggle with the large up-front costs that are associated with some software suppliers. 

Before jumping into a long term software contract, ask yourself these key questions:

1. What does my recruitment software need to do?

2. Which devices do I want to access it on?

3. What is my budget for setup costs and training?

4. Where is my data going to be stored?

5. Which members of staff need access to the software and where are they based?
