Instead of Agencies, One Recruiter Is Trying These 5 Tools

Cat Hernandez, head of talent at Chartbeat, mentioned yesterday on a panel at ERE’s San Diego conference that she uses very few third-party agencies. (Actually she has used headhunters on a very limited basis, like for “container searches,” sometimes called “retingency.”)

After the session, I asked her what those tools were.

• Aevy
• Gild
• Underdog.io
• Whitetruffle
• Working not Working
