I have received several emails from recruiters who have tried Recruit'n and most were not impressed with the results. To add insult to injury, it appears that the site was hacked recently causing the Recruit'n team to reload the site.

 

Personally, I was disappointed to find that the resumes I received had been simply ripped of job boards like Monster and Hotjobs. Both boards I have access to myself. Since souces of resumes get paid regardless of the quality of the resume, there isn't any incentive for a sourcer to consider the quality of the match before sending a resume over. While it's possible that some of the registered sourcers could be really good, I'm not convinced that they would submit truly great candidates when any resume at all will get them the same pay out.

 

Like many of these sites, it's going to take time for the site to become effective (if ever). For now, I doubt anyone is going to get great results from the site.

 

If anyone out there has had a positive experience please post your results here.
