Lost the original file when you sell to recruitment agencies
Could you find the file your current list came from? Here is how people who sell to recruitment agencies fix it.
Could you find the file your current list came from?
After a few rounds of editing, nobody knows what the original list looked like or where it came from. When something looks wrong, there is nothing to check it against.
It hits harder when you sell to recruitment agencies. Recruitment agencies are sales driven businesses, from solo recruiters to firms with many desks per sector. Directors buy tools that help consultants fill roles faster, and they understand outbound selling better than most.
Errors cannot be traced back to their source. You also lose proof of where your data came from.
The original file stays with every import.
Riftjaw keeps the original import file attached to each import. You can get the original file back whenever you need it. Every record also keeps its source and date.
- Fields that fit recruitment agencies, such as sectors
- Email prefixes that fit, like info@, jobs@, hello@ and careers@
- Status, tags and a segment on every record
The fix, step by step
- Import as usual. The uploaded file is stored with the import automatically.
- Open the import. Find the import in your history when you need to check something.
- Get the file back. Retrieve the original file exactly as it was uploaded.
Other walls when prospecting recruitment agencies
Jobs@ addresses fill up with candidate applications.
Tick info@ and hello@ as well and record which address brought a reply.
Agencies post many jobs, so the same agency appears again and again in scraped lists.
Duplicates are flagged on import against your key field, before anything is saved.
Sector recruiters need separate messages.
Tags per sector and one saved filter per tag keep every campaign relevant.
Fields worth recording for recruitment agencies
Record these and you can split the list later, write sharper mails and see who fits your offer.
| Field | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Company name | The key field. Duplicates are checked on it or on the website. |
| Website | Needed to derive an email when the export has none. |
| Sectors | Tech, healthcare or industrial recruiters need different tools. |
| Consultants | The number of desks shows how many seats a tool could fill. |
| Permanent or temporary | Temp agencies need payroll and compliance support. |
| Recruitment software | Their current system matters for any switch. |
| Director | The person who signs off on tools and suppliers. |
Questions people ask
Choose the website or company name as the key field. Riftjaw flags duplicates in the file and against the database before you push the import.
Yes. Riftjaw is a general lead database. You can create separate lead files, or use the Agency plan with a workspace per client.
If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as info@, jobs@, hello@ and careers@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.
Yes. The Free plan runs the whole pipeline on one list with small campaigns, and you do not need a credit card. Move to Pro when you want more lists, segments and bigger campaigns.
