Plugin Recruiter – An agile response to a changing recruitment landscape

The role of the inhouse recruiter has changed forever. Gone is the transactional mindset, in a world where external perception counts for everything, todays recruiters works far more holistically

The role of the inhouse recruiter has changed forever. Gone is the transactional mindset, in a world where external perception counts for everything, todays recruiters works far more holistically.

It is often the company’s ability to nurture and manage their employer brand that enables them to attract the best talent. However, many inhouse recruiters are ill equipped, underfunded and often unsupported in their efforts to build such a brand.

CEO Chris Heron comments:

“Many inhouse recruiters are finding themselves under increased pressure to both attract talent and nurture an employer brand. They are performing multiple functions on a shoestring budget and naturally feel stretched. Plugin Recruiter was developed with these people in mind.”

Traditionally if a recruiter wanted to launch a highly branded online recruitment campaign, integrating video jobs, multimedia landing pages and video interviewing, they would need to appoint several different service providers. This is often time consuming and expensive. This is where Plugin can really help, the system enables recruiters to procure, deploy and manage the latest attraction, selection and branding tools all from one interface. 

Having already landed technology giant Samsung, Heron and his team have big plans for the future, including international growth. Hayley Bird, Senior HR Officer at Samsung commented: “Plugin is at the forefront of intelligent recruitment and we don't feel there is anything like this around. Working with them will really make us stand out as a recruitment innovator.”

Plugin are also announcing a major partnership with the multi award winning video interview company Sonru. The partnership will see Plugin as the only non applicant tracking solution in Europe to be fully integrated with the Sonru platform.  Edward Hendrick, the Founder and CEO explains that: “Sonru welcomes this partnership with Plugin Recruiter - this exciting talent acquisition platform.   Sonru is synonymous with best-practice interviewing and candidate experience and we are delighted to partner with Plugin Recruiter to assist their clients seeking to optimise their interview process.”
