This year is the year for recruiters to be more effective, more organised, have cleaner data, and more engaged clients and candidates. We love Bullhorn Automation (AKA Herefish). It's been a fantastic tool to help our clients speedily reboot their sales and recruitment processes. For Herefish, as with all recruitment automations, you need to ensure the right criteria is pulled into your automations so that it does a lot of your heavy lifting.
What are my tips to nail this so you can focus on the “good stuff” – candidate and client management and sales?
A Great Tip for Ensuring Your Bullhorn Automations Work
Herefish lists control which data you “attack” and clean / nudge / change / delete / automate. As an example, the Contact Advanced Search is one of my favourite ways to design a list (and make sure that I get it right).
The recruitment businesses I train on Bullhorn Automation (AKA Herefish) always find this tip really useful. It’s an easy way to experiment with your search criteria, and in a safe environment.
Do you want to ensure that you nail your lists the first time? (Of course you do!)
Do you need a speedy way to using the Boolean symbols to get the right results?
Do you want an easy way to check the results?
Let me show you how to:
Save time in Herefish by quickly creating then testing your search criteria
Save your Bullhorn data as a list to get your Herefish automation up and running
Use Herefish with speed so you can help your recruiters get on the phone
