The difference between a good recruiter and a top performer often comes down to tools—specifically, whether those tools are helping you move quickly, stay organized, and engage candidates at the right moment.

That’s exactly where TE Recruit Pro comes in.

If you’re currently using the Standard Tier, you’re already benefiting from a solid recruiting foundation. But for just $20 more per user, per month, you can unlock a suite of advanced capabilities designed to help you place more candidates, reduce manual work, and ultimately drive more revenue.

Let’s break down why upgrading to Pro isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a strategic advantage.

More Power, Minimal Cost

For many teams, budget is the first concern when considering an upgrade. But here’s the reality:

  • Only $20 more per user per month unlocks Pro
  • Annual Pro pricing = the same total cost as paying Standard monthly

That means you can access significantly more functionality without increasing your annual spend—just by switching to an annual Pro plan. It’s one of the rare cases where you truly get more for the same money.

Eleven (11) Big Pro Tier Features

The Pro Tier already includes powerful tools that can help you save time and make more placements. In fact, below are 11 big features and tools that the Pro Tier offers that the Standard Tier does not.

(We’ve recently added more enhancements to the Pro Tier, making it an even smarter choice for your team.)

1. Automations: Streamline repetitive recruiting processes with intelligent automation. Automatically trigger key actions—such as sending follow-up emails, updating candidate statuses, notifying hiring managers, or scheduling interviews—based upon predefined rules and workflows. Reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and boost team efficiency.

2. Sequencing: Build and manage multi-step workflows that guide candidates, clients, or internal teams through consistent, automated communication journeys. Use sequencing to nurture candidates, automate onboarding steps, or structure multi-stage approval processes, ensuring smooth progression through every stage of your recruitment lifecycle.

3. Smart-TE AI Job Description Generator: Generate detailed job descriptions automatically based upon key role requirements.

4. Smart-TE AI Search String Generator: Create optimized search strings with AI assistance for better candidate sourcing.

5. Custom Careers Page Forms and Questionnaires: Tailor your application process with customizable forms and surveys.

6. Organization Chart Builder for Reports: Visualize team structures effortlessly with this robust reporting tool.

7. Increased Storage: Enjoy 100 GB of storage space (compared to 10 GB on the Standard Tier).

8. Higher Email Limits: Send up to 10,000 emails per month (double the Standard Tier limit).

9. More Frequent Data Backups: Weekly backups ensure better data security (versus monthly on the Standard Tier).

10. API Access: TE Recruit’s public API provides additional flexibility for connecting TE Recruit with other systems and building custom integrations that support your workflow.

11. Inbound Email Sync (coming soon): With Inbound Email Sync, you can connect your Microsoft or Google Workspace account to automatically log incoming emails in TE Recruit.

These features are designed to eliminate repetitive tasks, enhance candidate engagement, and give your team the flexibility to scale without friction.

Time is Money, My Friends

Every recruiter knows that time is money. The faster you can identify, engage, and place candidates, the more successful you’ll be.

TE Recruit Pro helps you:

  • Reduce manual admin work
  • Increase candidate engagement
  • Shorten time-to-fill
  • Improve placement rates

And when you multiply those gains across your entire team, the ROI becomes undeniable.
