IT for recruitment
Your Consultants Can’t Place Candidates If IT Is Slow
Recruitment is a fast-moving, relationship-driven business where speed matters. Your consultants need instant access to their ATS and CRM from anywhere – in the office, at client sites, working from home or on the road. When systems are slow, unreliable or inaccessible, productivity falls and placements are missed.
At the same time, recruitment agencies hold significant volumes of personal data – CVs, contact details, salary information, employment history – that carries strict GDPR obligations around consent, retention and security. A data breach doesn’t just attract ICO attention; it damages the trust of candidates and clients that took years to build.
Blowfish Technology provides IT support that keeps your consultants productive and your candidate data protected – from fast, reliable access to your CRM and ATS to the email security and GDPR controls that modern recruitment compliance demands.
CRM and ATS Downtime
When Bullhorn, Vincere or your ATS is inaccessible, your consultants can’t work. Every hour of downtime costs you productivity and potentially lost placements.
Candidate Data GDPR Obligations
Candidate CVs and personal data carry strict GDPR obligations – including lawful basis for processing, retention limits and the right to erasure. A breach or complaint has serious consequences.
Email Security for Client Relationships
Business email compromise targeting recruitment agencies can result in fraudulent invoices or interception of candidate salary negotiations – protecting your email is essential.
Hybrid Working Complexity
Consultants working from home, client sites and the office need fast, secure access to all their systems – without creating the security gaps that remote working can introduce.
