It shouldn’t be so difficult to find the right hire. At RippleMatch, our job is to make your life easy. We are the best way to find, engage, and hire college students and recent graduates for full-time jobs and internships.

After filling out our hiring profile, you can relax as our intelligent algorithms sort through tens of thousands of profiles to find the perfect matches for your roles. Every single candidate that you get matched with has already expressed interest in your role and is vetted for quality. All we need to get started is 30 minutes of your time, and we integrate seamlessly into your existing systems.

Stop talking to candidates that would never be a good fit for your role, and stop posting on job board after job board. RippleMatch allows you to cut through the noise.

12.13.2017 Trial Follow Up Call

Trial Questions:

  • With the posting that went live, we needed to make adjustments along the way:
  • Filter for relocation - how does that work?

    • When proactively recruiting, they will validate relocation

  • Filter for no sponsorship - how does that work?

    • When students sign up they enter their response.

  • Do you manually find candidates?

    • RippleMatch has a pool of candidates

      They will fill in an algorithm and search candidates

      Once top 1% are found, RM will blast emails, call, vet them

      Email marketing, “RippleMatch’s client”, “⅔’s of presented CN’s get an interview”

  • 5 candidates in 3 days - Did you stop at 5 because of the trial or because that was all that was available/suitable?

    • Reduced # of candidates due to trial

      Generally, RM sends 10 at a time (niche roles 5-7 at a time)

      If candidates are not a fit, they can send more

      They can acquire students that aren’t in the database within a few days

  • Process: RC sent JD, RippleMatch posted right away, RC goes in and fills out survey (3 min - position is posted while that happens). In the future, the account manager can post or the RC’s can post.

Trial Results:


  • Trialed with 1 Avanade Recruitment Consultant
