What Happens Between Placement and Payroll
For many recruiters, the job feels done at placement.
The role is filled, the offer is accepted, and attention quickly moves on to the next brief. But in reality, placement is only the midpoint of the recruitment lifecycle, and what happens next is often where the most friction, risk, and inefficiency sits.
This “in-between” stage rarely gets talked about, yet it has a direct impact on candidate experience, client trust, and operational stability.

The Recruiter’s New Year Reset: Trading the “Paper Chase” for People
The start of a new year in recruitment is usually a bit of a paradox. On one hand, there’s that “day one” energy—the excitement of new headcounts and a fresh desk.

Because Retention Isn’t a Reaction — It’s a Relationship
When people leave, most companies react.They start talking about counteroffers, culture, or pay — as if one conversation could undo months of quiet frustration. But by the time you’re reacting, you’ve already lost them. Retention isn’t something you fix after a resignation. It’s something you nurture long before it happens. It’s built in the small, […]
