Why do we celebrate our recruiters?

Because we are not successful without our team of recrooiters. They are the driving force behind our business, they are also part of the reason we started in the first place.

Our founding members came from high ranking positions in the recruiting world and realized it was time for a change in the industry, a move towards easier and reliable tools, that celebrate a more human approach.

That’s why our recrooiters are so valuable and why becoming one can be a great option for those looking for a side gig that will fill their pocket and not drain their energy.

Who is our celebrated Recrooiter?

We are thrilled to be working with people like our highlighted recrooiter, Nikola Stojic, whose background is in law and tech. Yes, that’s right, law and tech. That’s the secret to Recrooit’s success: highly specialized recruiters that go beyond just talent hunting. They have an intimate knowledge of the industry, sometimes even more than one. They personally know great quality candidates and have made a name for themselves in the job niche. They are Recrooiters.

Nikola is from Serbia and now lives in the capital city of Belgrade. Although his first professional path was more oriented towards law he soon found himself connected to the tech world when

My professional background has mostly to do with the legal profession and technology. Before becoming L.L.M. It was quite an interesting road trip. I’ve started working on my first business project, a software store for Windows, together with a friend back in 2009. Since then, I have always tried to combine the two things I love, law, and tech. From working with startups to interning in a law firm to improve business/legal skills it was always and still is quite an interesting journey on finding a way to combine them.

How did Nikola start recruiting?

“Well, to be honest, it started quite accidentally. While I did my master’s thesis in Employment and Social law and specialized in it, back in 2014 I didn’t have any concrete plans. So, my friend called me and asked me if I had the time to help out an NGO that was looking for an IT guy with a good understanding of the law. A few months later at the NGO, we needed to get candidates to fill empty spots for different sectors within the organization. When you get to that point, you have a large number of people circulating, doing interviews with them, and learning on the spot how it all works without any previous experience.”

How did he join the Recrooit team?

“I was writing a post on LinkedIn about how the ATS is getting too robotized and that there is no personal interaction with candidates. Nevena Sofranic (founder of Recrooit) saw the post and we had a conversation about what are the problems in recruiting and how ATS could be changed.”

Like the majority of people at Recrooit, Nikola’s favorite part of the process is communicating with others, whether it’s a candidate or a company representative.

“It’s great to hear gratitude from candidates you hired, as well as hearing the feedback that they are doing well at their new job.”

The tools we give our recrooiters

We rely on amazing professionals to complete Recrooit’s mission. That’s why we work really hard to create a platform that offers them the best advantages. The way Recrooit’s platform is designed is to be an organic approach for recruiting talent; while supporting natural workflows for communication and networking is the greatest asset we provide.

This is a huge part of what attracted Nikola to join as a recruiter for Recrooit, as he puts it:

For Recrooiters, it is:

“The opportunity to use everything they already learned previously to find the right candidates for the position. For example, using boolean in this case will allow recruiters to save time and get better at sourcing.”

What stood out for Nikola was the question & answer tool which allowed him to have seamless communication with both the candidate and the company.

Other standout tools:

Linking to job posts: these links maintain the recrooiter’s ID attached to them so that any candidate that applies with it and gets hired, will earn the recrooiter a reward. This alternative medium makes sharing job postings as easy as copy and paste.

Because Recrooit acknowledges that recrooiters are busy, want solutions fast, and are tech-savvy, we created a streamlined process. No bells and whistles, just results.

Why becoming a recrooiter is the right choice for you?
