Independent RecruiterWhat are signals?
Signals are a way of compiling a list of people you’ll consider working with. Others can signal you as well.
By signaling a person or organization you notify them that you’ll consider working with them. Thus:
- You will be notified of all or relevant jobs they post or when they’re open to new opportunities (your choice).
- When they search for talent, they’ll notice you signaled them.
- Your signals are only visible to people you have signaled. You can, however, share them with others to collaborate.
55% of jobs are filled via referrals 1 . With Signals, Torre makes it easy for you.
