Network Candidates Database Up to Nearly 8 Million!

Regardless of layoffs in the tech sector, there is still a national labor shortage within the majority of industries. Not only that, but the Great Resignation is also still in full swing, and employers still have the need and desire to hire.

The good news? Top Echelon’s Network Candidates sourcing tool (formerly called the MEGA Database) has nearly 8 million recruited candidates in it! And that number continues to grow on an almost daily basis.

In case you’re not aware, the Network Candidates sourcing tool allows TE members who use Top Echelon’s recruiting software to share data more quickly and easily.

However, please note that if you’re a Network member and you do NOT use Top Echelon’s ATS, you can still use the Network Candidates sourcing tool. While you can perform searches in the tool, your information will not be included in searches conducted by other Network members. And as I just mentioned, the reason is because you’re not using Top Echelon’s recruiting software.

With all of this in mind, we have six more BIG reasons why you should use the Network Candidates sourcing tool more often. Those reasons are as follows:

#1—Filling tough-to-fill job orders

Let’s face it: high-quality candidates are always in demand, but high-quality candidates are exactly what your clients want. Network Candidates is the place for sourcing candidates when you can’t find them anywhere else.

#2—Filling job orders more quickly

It’s not just about filling the job order with the best candidate, but it’s also about filling the job order with the best candidate more quickly. Your clients will be impressed, and you might see more search assignments and placement checks.

#3—Finding a candidate from a specific geographic region

Sometimes, it’s not just that high-quality candidates are difficult to find. You have to find them in a specific place, too. The Network Candidates sourcing tool can help with this, as well.

#4—Filling job orders you can’t get to

What’s the point of having job orders if you don’t have the time to fill them all? No point, that’s what! The Network Candidates sourcing tool helps leverage your resources so that you can make more placements and increase your billings.

#5—Expanding into a new niche

Accept job orders and search assignments outside of your niche by partnering with other recruiters and using their candidates. Now you’re really making placements you would not have made otherwise!

#6—Increasing your revenue

More candidates can lead to more placements, which can lead to more recruiting fees, which means more revenue. And really, isn’t that what this whole crazy profession is all about? (AND helping people find great jobs . . . that, too.)

So let’s tie a nice bow on our discussion of the Network Candidates sourcing tool:

• If you use Top Echelon’s recruiting software, then you can conduct searches in Network Candidates and your information will be included in searches conducted by other Top Echelon Network members.
• If you do NOT use Top Echelon’s ATS, then you can still conduct searches in Network Candidates, but your information will NOT be included in searches conducted by other Network members.

Below are three other important facts about the Network Candidates sourcing tool:

1. Resumes are blinded! That means nobody can see your candidates and/or take them and run.
2. There is NO additional charge to use it, since it’s included with your split network membership.
3. It’s easy to opt-in. Navigate to “Settings,” then go to “Top Echelon Network” settings. (Note that only an agency’s main contact can opt-in.)
