When a team or a project need someone to join them it, is often in a hurry. The recruit or supplier must be right first time, hit the deck running and contribute immediately, there's little time to settle in.
For many, the preferred way of finding the great capability and expertise they need, is to work through people they trust. But working through many contacts can be hard and take a lot of time.
i-nomi makes this preferred way of recruiting fast and easy and provides clear oversight. The challenge of reading CVs, resumes or proposals, dealing with time zones, and much more disappear.
Hiring Managers and Procurement Managers - the people with the biggest stake in getting successful hires - can direct their own recruitment campaigns/tenders.
Traditional recruitment relies on a plethora of CVs and profiles that may no longer be valid, up to date or relevant to a specific requirement.
i-nomi makes it much easier to reach Candidates or Suppliers that are more likely to be interested directly through people they know, without an unknown intermediary.
i-nomi is a referral platform that helps you reach Candidates and Suppliers quickly through people you know and trust and then assess them on a fair and equal basis, against pre-determined criteria.
No more random CVs or pre-screening required; i-nomi empowers you to manage this yourselve either with real-time results as Candidates and Suppliers apply or with results anonymised until the closing date.
If CVs are essential, they can be requested through i-nomi, as an attachment to the candidate's application.
i-nomi measures a candidate or supplier on their value-for-money proposition i.e. their VFM score that is made up of a combination of their experience, capability, qualifications and required remuneration.
Referrals are commonplace for many organisations. i-nomi coordinates them, ensuring that any selection is scored against pre-determined criteria, so that referrals are fair and relevant.
Scoring against pre-determined criteria deals with any suggestion of favouritism head-on so that Hiring Managers and Procurement Managers can demonstrate the suitability of the referred candidate or supplier.
i-nomi increases the awareness of the vacancy and allows for numerous referrals from numerous sources including existing team members and agencies. Every application is assessed consistently to ensure that the optimum candidate or supplier is selected.
i-nomi can show applications as they arrive in real-time or with results anonymised until the closing date to eliminate any potential favouritism.
i-nomi enables the Administrator to empower Hiring Managers and Procurement Managers to run their own recruitments/tenders through their own networks of trusted colleagues, with full real-time oversight for the Administrator.
The Administrator and Hiring Manager/Procurement Manager can both see applications as they arrive. The Administrator doesn't need to manage the search, it can be left to the Hiring Managers/Procurement Managers who has the most at stake in delivering successful hires/appointments.
i-nomi has real-time dashboards that track recruitment or tender activity, such as the receipt and immediate scoring and ranking of Candidates or Suppliers.
Notes can be made on each application before deciding which applications to reject, shortlist or appoint.
The automated scoring and ranking means Hiring Managers and Procurement Managers can better focus on the top scoring Candidates or Suppliers, with sound reason for doing so, as the shortlisting is immediate.
No more hours spent on screening many, many applications to arrive at the best possible shortlist.
Dashboards can be easily saved, printed and filed as a complete record of the entire recruitment campaign.
The HR Director is often the individuals responsible for recruitment and so for i-nomi, may well have the role of Administrator.
However, instead of them having to run the recruitment campaigns themselves, they can appoint Hiring Managers to run them instead, using their networks of trusted colleagues to reach the best Candidates.
The Administrator retains full oversight of all activity in real-time and at all times and can keep an eye on applications as they roll in. This enables the HR Director to focus on more value-added activities as they no longer need to manage the transactional side of the search, leaving that to the Hiring Managers who have the most at stake in delivering successful hires.
The Procurement Director is often the individual responsible for tenders and so for i-nomi, may well have the role of Administrator.
However, instead of the Procurement Director having to run tenders, they can appoint Procurement Managers to run their own tenders instead, using their networks of trusted colleagues to reach the best Suppliers.

Yes. Clients can invite Agencies to act as Nominators and Agencies can use i-nomi themselves to track Candidates and speed up their shortlisting.
How many times have you heard a Recruiter ask you if you know anyone to fill a role they are trying to fill.
i-nomi works as a referral tool to control the referral process better and result in greater success for clients and Agencies alike.
Yes. i-nomi's recruitment module caters for all vacancies whether Staff, Contractors, Consultants and a full-time or part-time basis. Value for money is measured against the budget - salary, fixed price budget or day rate.
Similarly, i-nomi's procurement modules are designed to procure goods, services and contracts assessing Tenders for value-for-money - a combination of experience, capability, capacity and price (fixed price, cost reimbursable or schedule or rates).
i-nomi allows Hiring Managers to define their requirement through a number of handy, easy to use selection criteria and sliders.
This reduces the reliance on reading individual CVs, which are often outdated and misaligned to the requirement and very often misunderstood.
If CVs are required, they can be requested through i-nomi, as an attachment to the candidate's application.
i-nomi also deals with the right to work in the host country and keeping applications anonymous if necessary/preferred.
If the requirements of a job change, the Hiring Manager or Procurement Managers can change their criteria too and/or use sliders to place more emphasis on some criteria, without the need to relaunch the recruitment.
Candidate or supplier scores will change automatically to align with the revised criteria to ensure that the best candidate or supplier is selected
i-nomi Pro allow you to change the criteria but once you do so, the changes would apply to all jobs within the module e.g., the Recruitment module.
If you would like the ability to create different criteria for different individual jobs within the same module, we would need to talk to you to discuss how to build this but it shouldn't be too difficult or costly.
As soon as the candidate or supplier has been selected, the Hiring Manager or Procurement Manager can complete the job, which will archive it, removing it from the dashboards.
The job can still be viewed at any time by selecting all-jobs or completed jobs in the Jobs Dashboard.
i-nomi is designed to encourage good housekeeping. When a candidate is selected the job can be completed, so that the next job can be launched.
i-nomi can cater for unlimited jobs in progress, though it is always good practice to close off jobs as soon as possible.
i-nomi can show applications as they arrive in real-time or with results anonymised until the closing date.
You can choose to keep applications anonymous until the closing date to eliminate potential favouritism. When the Hiring Manager or Procurement Manager is ready see the identity of the Candidates or Suppliers, they can do so at the flick of a switch.
If CVs or proposals are required, they can be requested through i-nomi, as an attachment to the candidate's or supplier's application.
i-nomi also deals with the right to work in the host country and keeping applications anonymous if necessary/preferred.
i-nomi is designed to flow from the Administrator to Hiring/Procurement Manager(s), to the Nominator(s), and finally to the Candidates/Suppliers like this:
The Administrator administers the account and invites Hiring/Procurement Managers to sign up.
Hiring/Procurement Managers create their jobs/procurements and invite Nominators to sign up to help reach the best Candidates/Suppliers - they can also reach out to Candidates/Suppliers themselves.
Nominators invite Candidates/Suppliers to sign up and apply for the job/procurement in question.
Candidates/Suppliers apply directly, and their applications are immediately visible to the Hiring/Procurement Managers and the Nominators are immediately notified that they have done applied.
Whoever signs up first for the organisation automatically becomes the Administrator although the role is transferable at any time. The Administrator is responsible for the account and is typically someone tasked with the overall management of recruitment or tendering.
The Administrator can bypass the Hiring Manager or Procurement Manager and Nominator roles to use i-nomi to directly reach Candidates or Suppliers.
The use of Hiring Managers or Procurement Managers and Nominators however allows for a wider reach and a more coordinated process for the organisation, where Nominators can be rewarded for assisting in the search of good talent.
The Administrator can bypass the Hiring Manager or Procurement Manager and Nominator roles and use i-nomi themselves to directly reach Candidates or Suppliers themselves.
The introduction of Hiring Managers or Procurement Managers and Nominators enables a wider reach and more coordinated process for the organisation, where Nominators can be rewarded for assisting in the search of good talent.
i-nomi allows Administrator to coordinate the recruitment campaigns/tenders of several Hiring Managers or Procurement Managers, each of whom can run their own recruitments/procurements in a coordinated, consistent manner.
A Hiring Manager or Procurement Manager is typically someone in your organisation who is responsible for individual recruitments or tenders, e.g. a Project Leader, Department Head or Manager, who can run their own campaign safe in the knowledge that the Administrator has full view of the recruitment as it develops.
A Nominator is typically someone in your network of trusted professionals, someone you can confidently involve in your search to fill a role, in a fair, unbiased manner.
Referrals are a good way to reach Candidates or Suppliers, and i-nomi allows you to reach many more, quickly and simultaneously, through a wider network of Nominators.
i-nomi works best if your network is engaged in your search but the role of the Nominator can be bypassed by both the Administrator and Hiring or Procurement Managers, who can approach Candidates or Suppliers directly.
Yes. Clients can choose to invite Agencies to act as Nominators and Agencies can use i-nomi themselves to speed up their shortlisting processes.
How many times have you heard a recruiter ask you if you know anyone to fill a role they are trying to fill. i-nomi works as a referral tool to control the referral process better and result in more success for clients and Agencies alike.
Where organisations have referral schemes in place for Agencies, i-nomi makes it easier to engage them as Nominators in recruitment or procurement and includes fields where the value of the referral fees can be clearly identified.
When you are in contact with someone, that can often lead to "I can't help you but I know someone who can".
For i-nomi, when the someone who can is a potential Nominator then they should be put in touch with the Hiring or Procurement Manager, that way Hiring Managers stay in control of their recruitment campaigns or tenders.
Administrators can allow job links to be available for easy transfer by personal email, text message, LinkedIn posts etc, instead of via the email integration system within i-nomi.
Yes. Businesses change and people can come and go, so i-nomi can transfer accounts and jobs between users. This takes care of changes to the organisation's structure, including, for example ensuring cover for annual leave or when users leave the business or takes up another role in the organisation. The transfer can be in full or in part e.g. for certain jobs only.
Administrators can sign-up an organisation to i-nomi through our i-nomi.net website and become the custodians of the organisations account.
Administrators can transfer stewardship of the account to another user when necessary e.g. when they are away or on holiday or leave the organisation.
Once signed-up, the Administrator has full control of the account, including inviting Hiring or Procurement Managers, Nominators and Candidates or Suppliers, and can easily transfer accounts and jobs between them.
Hiring or Procurement Managers are invited to sign-up for i-nomi by the Administrator who runs i-nomi for the organisation.
This allows Hiring or Procurement Managers to run their own recruitment campaigns or tenders, safe in the knowledge that the Administrator has sight off all activities in real-time.
Nominators are invited to sign-up to i-nomi by the Administrator or a Hiring or Procurement Manager on the basis that they understand the capability required for the job and are an effective route to likeminded people through their network of professional contacts.
Nominators invite Candidates or Suppliers to apply based on their knowledge of the individual or company.
i-nomi is not a job-board or repository of CVs or proposals.
Candidates or Suppliers receive a personal invitation to sign-up to i-nomi when they are believed to be a good match to a specific job.
Administrators and/or Hiring or Procurement Managers who are recruiting for a job invite Candidates or Suppliers to apply based on their knowledge of the individual or company.
i-nomi is not a job search tool or a repository of CVs so Candidates or Suppliers invited to apply for a role can be confident that their suitability has already been carefully considered for that role.

Yes. Where organisations have referral schemes in place, i-nomi makes it easier to engage Nominators in recruitment and/or procurement and includes fields where the value of the referral fees can be clearly identified, and you can choose whether to make these visible to Nominators or not.
Hiring/Procurement Managers have full visibility of the nomination process and once a Candidate or Supplier is selected, and the dashboards show who has nominated them - in real time. i-nomi also notes when a Candidate or Supplier is nominated by numerous Nominators, which provides increased comfort that the Candidate or Supplier is the right one for the job.
Nominators who reach the right Candidate/Supplier first can be rewarded in line with the organisations success fee policy. i-nomi does not interfere with reward schemes the responsibility for which remains with the organisation. The reward could go to the first Nominator or could be shared.
