Let’s be honest. When you’re a solo recruiter, every tool you use has to earn its place. Time, energy, and money aren’t infinite resources; you’re running a business of one, and every click, subscription, and software platform needs to pull its weight.
So when you’re bombarded with recruitment CRM ads promising AI-powered matching, team dashboards, candidate engagement scoring, and twenty integrations you’ve never heard of… it’s easy to get swept up in the noise.
But here’s the thing: you don’t need a CRM with all the bells, whistles, and built-in espresso machine.
You need a CRM that fits your workflow. A low-cost CRM. One that helps you stay on top of jobs, candidates, and clients. without eating into your day or your budget.
Recruitment CRMs can be brilliant. But not all are built for solo operators. Most of the top-tier platforms are designed for large teams, internal recruiters, or agencies with layers of process and permissions.
As a solo recruiter or small agency, you’re likely:
In that setup, a bulky CRM can slow you down. You might end up paying for features you never use, or wasting hours trying to learn workflows that don’t suit how you work.
Let’s simplify things. Strip away the extras and it comes down to this; you need a CRM that helps you:
If your CRM can do that, you’re golden.
You don’t need analytics that rival NASA. You need visibility, simplicity, and speed.
We kept seeing solo recruiters and small teams being pushed toward systems they didn’t need. Overcomplicated. Overpriced. Overkill.
So we built something different.
Giig Hire CRM is made specifically for recruiters who want simple, effective tools without the fluff. Whether you’re just starting out or scaling a niche desk, our free CRM gives you everything you need — and nothing you don’t. Plus, even our paid-for packages come in as a low-cost CRM.
Giig is the first free recruitment CRM. Like Hubspot but for recruiters.
Here’s what you get with Giig:
Before you say “but nothing is free” or “why’s is it free?”, well we do have paid plans for the product that have more time-saving features but the bottom line is we do have a completely free version of the platform. No limits on the amount of CVS you can store, and no credit card details upon sign up!
Whether you work perm, contract, tech, creative, or something niche; you’ll find Giig gives you structure without shackles.
It’s not just the subscription fees that get you. Some platforms charge per user, per month. Others tack on extra costs for integrations, support, or CRM “training” (which, for some reason, takes six hours and a degree in systems engineering).
That might be fine for a big agency with cash to burn. But for you? That money’s better spent on marketing, sourcing tools, or, a holiday after a 3-placement month.
With Giig, you don’t pay anything to start. You get a CRM that helps you manage your desk efficiently, with zero stress and zero invoices landing in your inbox.
If you’re running a 20-person agency, maybe. If you’re a solo recruiter who thrives on speed and clarity? Probably not.
You don’t need a CRM that tries to do everything. You need one that helps you do your thing, better.
