The CV parser helps recruiters uncover BD opportunities by pulling through candidate employment history, not just skills and summaries. From the employment cards, recruiters can create new company records or link candidates to existing companies, giving better visibility of current employees, previous employees, contacts, and wider candidate movement.
Candidate and contact Matches help surface warm opportunities already sitting in the database. When coding is accurate, recruiters can quickly identify contacts hiring for a candidate’s skill set, or find suitable candidates for a contact, making outreach more targeted and less reliant on memory or spreadsheets.
Firefish allows recruiters to generate a formatted CV directly from the candidate record in just a few clicks. This makes it quicker and easier to prepare polished candidate profiles for proactive outreach, helping recruiters move faster from identifying a strong candidate to sharing them with relevant contacts.
Spec CVs allow recruiters to proactively create demand by sending strong candidates to relevant matched contacts. Firefish makes it easy to generate a formatted CV, send it out, schedule follow-up, and track the conversation so opportunities are not lost after the initial send.
