SecretStatus is for Superstar Technical Specialists

People instantly think of computer-based jobs when they read Technical Specialists, but this also includes lots of other roles..

Here are a list of just some of the people that can benefit:

• Oil contractors, especially having seen a 30% increase in contract rates last year
• Top lawyers, as you can see from our other post
• Locum Doctors
• Hardware speciailists
• Engineers

When you become an expert (lets say 6 years+ with a skill) you are probed constantly by people eager to find out if you are looking. It's a waste of everyone's time, especially if you're definitely not looking!

That's why we are there heartbeating your availability (or lack of) out regularly to an audience you can closely control. Even adding a secret status, only visible to your trusted recruiters, to separate the wheat from the chaff.

A PSL (Preferred Supplier List) is a list of recruitment companies that a company is willing to work with, the ones they deem decent. SecretStatus gives top candidates the ability to have their own PSL and open up more to recruiters who have "made the grade"

Harvey Nash chooses The City as HQ

More evidence that London is the international hub where people want to run their recruitment businesses..

Their reasons?

• The UK's pool of talent, including attracting graduates from the Far East and Asia
• Silicon Roundabout and the growth of high-tech facilities around the edges of the City
• Business-friendly attitudes from the Government and the Mayor's office
• The UK's competitive position in terms of its geographical position
• The iconic nature of Heron Tower and its green credentials

We look forward to signing them up..

Reply-to-all Recruiter Fail

Oops, some poor soul sent a mail out asking 200 people if they are looking but used CC instead BCC....

..leaving lots of lawyers embarrassed and looking like they are looking for work!

Yet another reason why the current processes are broken, and something new needs building...

What is SecretStatus?

Not sure what we're about?

How does this splash screen work for you? 

We like it but it makes us sound like we're against head-hunters, far from it. We feel for them having to work through their hopelessly out of date database on the off chance they find someone talented who is actually looking or up for a move. It really is needle in haystack work.

If you're better than average at what you do, our site is for you.. whether you're a candidate or a recruiter..

Recruiters

The best recruiters already have trusted relationships / mutual respect with the key players but can never be sure if they are in the loop if they want to open to a move.

With our tool recruiters that already have a large trusted network will start to see massive amounts of intelligence, happier candidates and cost savings immediately (less ATS/researching costs)

Hollywood Stars (Candidates)

The best candidates drown in job offers and are called at the most inappropriate times. They also rely heavily on trusted relationships with the best recruiters.

They want to apply The Hollywood Principle..

"Don't call us, we'll call you"
