Every candidate, client, and job order is organized, automated, and tracked so your team can build relationships and fill roles, not chase busywork.
Nutshell gives you a complete profile for every candidate and client — resumes, notes, emails, calls, and files all stored in one searchable record. Whether you’re following up on a placed candidate or nurturing a new hiring client, the full history is right there.
The best part? In recruitment, roles change fast. A candidate you placed last year could be a hiring manager today. Nutshell keeps that relationship history intact so your team always knows exactly where they stand with every contact.
Nutshell handles the follow-up so your recruiters don’t have to. Set up automated sequences that keep candidates warm, nudge clients on open job orders, and alert your team when it’s time to take action.
When a new candidate enters your pipeline, Nutshell can automatically assign them to the right recruiter, send a personalized intro email, and schedule a follow-up task — all without anyone lifting a finger.
Growing your client base takes consistent business development — but most BD activity gets buried in inboxes and spreadsheets. Nutshell gives your team a dedicated client pipeline, separate from your candidate workflow, so every opportunity is tracked from first call to signed contract.
Use the built-in meeting scheduler to book discovery calls without the back-and-forth. Call or email clients directly from their record with one click. And keep every conversation logged so your whole team has the context they need to close.
Agency owners need more than a gut feeling — they need to know which recruiters are hitting their activity targets, which clients generate the most repeat business, and where revenue is actually coming from. Nutshell’s reporting gives you that visibility in real time.
AI-powered summaries mean you can get caught up on any account in seconds. Customizable dashboards let you track the metrics that matter most to your agency, whether that’s placements per recruiter, revenue by client, or pipeline velocity.
Nutshell integrates with the software recruitment and staffing teams rely on, so your candidate and client data stays synced across your entire tech stack.
Use Zapier to connect your existing ATS — whether that’s Bullhorn, Greenhouse, or another platform — so your relationship management and applicant tracking work together seamlessly. Link your email and calendar for automatic communication logging, and connect your contracts and accounting tools to keep everything in one place.

A CRM manages relationships with candidates and clients throughout the entire lifecycle, while an ATS focuses specifically on tracking applicants for active job openings. Nutshell serves as your recruitment CRM and integrates with your existing ATS to create a complete solution for managing both talent relationships and client business development.
Most recruitment teams are up and running within days, not weeks. Small agencies typically complete onboarding in 2-4 weeks, including data migration, customization, and team training. Nutshell offers free white glove onboarding services to handle the technical setup, so you can focus on recruiting while we get you operational.
