How the desk runs

One platform, from the market map to the offer.

  • Map the market

    Build the target list on the assignment record — the agencies, the team leaders, directors and managing directors inside them, and who has already been spoken to.

  • Confidential approaches

    Approaches, conversations and declines are recorded against the assignment, so a discreet search still leaves a trail the team can work from.

  • Longlist to shortlist

    The market is small and relationships are everything, so the consultants already on your record are the whole business. Move candidates through the assignment stages with the reasoning attached, and send a formatted shortlist from the record.

  • Assessment and interviews

    Interview stages, feedback and assessment notes sit on the candidate within the assignment. At this level the agency is judging whether the consultant can bill on their own desk quickly, and the evidence for it belongs on the record.

  • Retained milestones

    Retainer stages are tracked against the assignment, so what has been billed and what is due sits with the work rather than beside it.

  • The client report

    Dashman shows placement fees, pipeline by client and where offers stall, so the update is drawn from the record rather than assembled before the call.

Checks and clearances

On the record before anyone is placed

Billing history, references and restrictive covenants sit on the candidate record, so a consultant is put forward on evidence rather than assertion.

How documents and expiry work
  • References confirmed on the worker record
  • Restrictive covenant position held on the candidate record
  • Right-to-work documents with expiry alerts
  • Qualifications and billing history on the record

Questions

Executive Search Rec2Rec recruitment software questions.

Does it support retained assignments?

Retainer milestones are tracked against the assignment alongside the stages, so what has been billed and what is still due sits with the work.

Can approaches be kept confidential?

Approaches and conversations are recorded against the assignment with the access controls you have configured, so a discreet search still leaves a usable trail.

How is market mapping handled?

The target list of agencies and consultants is built on the assignment record, including who has already been approached and what they said.

What does the client see?

Assignment progress is drawn from the record stage by stage, so the update is reported rather than reconstructed before each call.

What checks does a rec2rec placement need?

Billing history, references and restrictive covenants sit on the candidate record, so a consultant is put forward on evidence rather than assertion. The desk holds references confirmed on the worker record, restrictive covenant position held on the candidate record, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts, qualifications and billing history on the record.
