Right Represent (RTR) documents are a powerful tool for professional recruiters. But, staffing industry professionals who use Vendor Management Systems (VMS) typically find RTR documents essential for building an automated recruitment process.
With a system that ensures RTR documents are collected, updated, and exported, recruiters can easily maintain track of the candidates they have the right to represent for a role.
An RTR document is a pillar for building a system of truth between candidates, recruiters, and corporate clients.
The right to represent gives clients the assurance that candidates have been vetted and made aware of the opportunity they are being submitted for while ensuring the candidate recruiter receives proper credit.
For candidates, it ensures that their chosen recruiter stays in touch with them, ensuring they have up-to-date information on new opportunities for which the recruiter is sourcing candidates.
Because of these benefits, many corporate organizations have begun requiring updated RTR documents before reviewing any submissions from different recruiting firms.
While automated workflows can be a game changer for recruiters, if these automations give special attention to properly gathering and storing documentation, they are setting you up for success. Luckily the right tech stack can be built for recruiting firms and their corporate clients. The bullet points below give a brief overview of how each system works to collect approvals throughout the recruitment process.
While the connections between these systems seem simple, faulty connections can lead to complications for all parties involved.
While an RTR agreement is often considered an internal document for the recruiter and their clients, a Right to Represent agreement can be an excellent tool for creating better relationships between recruiters and their candidates.
When introduced correctly, the RTR is a communication tool that builds trust between candidates and their recruiters. The agreement lists the role and an overview of that role’s responsibilities, helping establish the recruiter’s value while also establishing comfort in that the candidate can decline the specific position.
