Software for independent recruiters: candidates and clients

Imagine a client search: record the company and contact, open the search and save relevant LinkedIn profiles. Link each candidate to the assignment and keep notes and CVs on their record. When a second search arrives, reuse the database rather than starting again with folders.

This is an example process rather than a promised financial outcome. To evaluate software as a freelancer, try the workflow with a few real records: save, retrieve, link to a client and update the activity. Time saved matters when the information remains useful for the next task.

Saving a person and submitting them to a search are different decisions. The database preserves the profile even when the current assignment ends. A search link adds context: which client request you are evaluating them for and what happens next.

Choose the search in the extension when the available context allows it, or complete the link in Hice. Always check the client and assignment. A general note should not replace the relationship: a structured link makes candidates, status and recruitment activities easier to retrieve.

A company is the organization, a contact is a person, and an opportunity represents potential work. Putting everything in one cell makes it difficult to see who you know and which conversation you are following. People change roles, while companies can have several contacts and opportunities.

Hice connects these records. Start with the company, link the contact and add an opportunity when there is a concrete request. The commercial record remains useful before a deal exists: it preserves notes, context and activities without confusing an interesting profile with a qualified sale.
