Shortlyst.

Recruitment agency software

Run your whole agency from one branded site.

Shortlyst gives recruitment agencies a public job board, a candidate portal with CV uploads, and a back office for jobs, pipelines and clients. It all runs under your name, on your domain.

Your brand, your domain

Four site themes, your colours, fonts and logo, served on your own domain. Candidates never see ours.

Job board with SEO built in

Search, filters, Google for Jobs structured data, sitemaps and shareable listing pages out of the box.

Candidate portal

Candidates register, upload CVs, apply in a click, track progress, save jobs and set up job alerts.

CV database

Every CV is stored securely and its text is indexed, so you can search your whole talent pool by skill.

Pipeline per job

Drag candidates through configurable stages from New to Placed. Candidates see friendly status labels.

Clients and vacancies

Track hiring companies, contacts and fee terms, and turn vacancy enquiries into live jobs.

Team roles

Owners, admins and recruiters with the right access, plus invite links for new staff.

GDPR-ready

Consent capture, data export and self-service deletion for candidates, with configurable retention.

Four looks. Endless brands.

Pick a theme, then make it yours with your own colours, fonts and logo.
