Louma for Recruitment
Two pipelines, one system: clients and candidates
Business development sequences that win job orders, candidate pipelines that keep talent warm, interview scheduling that doesn't need ten emails — and a view of which consultants are billing.
The reality in recruitment
Recruitment is sales twice over, run on spreadsheets and inbox memory
Consultants are prospecting clients, screening candidates and arranging interviews at the same time. Something always slips — usually the follow-up.
Client BD is sporadic
Outreach happens when the desk is quiet. No sequences, no consistency, no visibility of who's been contacted.
Candidates go cold
Good candidates are contacted once for one role, then forgotten until the next search starts from scratch.
Interview logistics eat the day
Availability ping-pong between client, candidate and consultant.

Is Louma an ATS?
Louma is a sales CRM and automation platform. It runs client business development and candidate follow-up pipelines well; if you need deep ATS features such as parsing and compliance workflows, you can keep your ATS and use Louma for BD and engagement.
Can we run outreach sequences to clients?
Yes. Email sequences with call tasks, reply detection and per-consultant tracking are core to the setup.
Can candidates book interviews themselves?
Yes. Booking links reflect consultant availability and send confirmations and reminders to everyone involved.
