BringUsTogether is a simple concept - the site brings together employers and recruiters in an online environment. Now, don't get me wrong this isn't a unique concept, but I do like it and think it's worth mentioning again. The idea is that agencies can work with clients they would not normally have access to. Allowing them to develop new relationships and boost placement revenue. This service in theory eliminates the need for cold calling and speculative emails (saving money, time and making HR recruiters less annoyed!)
The way it works is that recruiters sign up for free, they are verified by BringUsTogher, and then can view live vacancies. They pick the positions they feel they can work best and then send suitable candidates to the client. Each vacancy gives details of the job title, a brief job description, the salary and any other benefits for the role, and also the placement fee available upon successful placement.
BringUsTogether makes it's money from a 20-25% fee taken from the overall placement fee once the successful candidate has completed a rebate period with the employer.
One of the regular topics on the forum is around how to develop new business and this site could well be a useful tool in the recruiters arsenal. The service is currently in its early stages of launching so don’t expect 1000s of vacancies straight away! However, I am assured they have business development and sales consultants working around the clock to provide vacancies for recruiters to work. As soon as a new vacancy is posted to the site, all registered recruiters are sent an email notification so they can visit the site and view updated details.
