Firefish Software is a recruitment and marketing platform that helps recruiters reach, engage and recruit top candidates before their competitors. Voted Best Recruitment CRM by real users for the second time at the Recruitment International Supplier Awards 2018 and 2019.
The average recruiter spends thousands per month to attract candidates, only to put them in a database to die. In fact, on average only 15% of candidates in a recruiter’s database have been updated in the last 2 years and unless you have an army of recruiters annoying your candidates every day this is impossible to increase.
Within 6 months of using Firefish, agencies can have 85% of their database active and engaged. This in turn creates 25% more placement opportunities that were hidden in their dead data.
