IndieFolio wants to help you recruit your next creative resource

Among the hundreds of metrics we track every day at the IndieFolio headquarters, two are monitored with special keenness: the number of creative professionals in our ever-growing community (We just breached 42,000!) and the number of companies looking to hire creative talent (3,500+ and growing steadily). The key to organising the design services industry in India lies between these two numbers for us.

While there are other popular online portfolio sites and more some extensively used recruitment networks, we felt there was a serious gap in effectivity when it comes to hiring creative resources in India. That’s where we started building and testing our newest offering – IndieFolio Recruiter. After gathering insights from our community and Beta users like Havas Worldwide India, Schbang, Social Kinnect, etc. we streamlined our product to allow the Indian creatives to find meaningful opportunities and recruiters to hire skilled talent for their specific needs.

IndieFolio Recruiter acts as a subscription-based search portal which follows a freemium plan where recruiters can view unlimited portfolios, post jobs, and message a predefined number of users for free. The paid plans start to include the Lite version and the Pro version giving recruiters a host of powerful tools to fulfil their specific creative requirements.

Say you’re a startup founder based in Bengaluru looking to hire a full-time UI/UX designer, you could find the right fit by first filtering by location and specialization.

As a part of the paid plans, you can simply activate the ‘Available for full-time’ option to instantly streamline your search.

Using their respective work experience, software used, and other advanced filters you can narrow it down to your top candidates.

At this stage, you can mass message all the profiles you’re interested in at once with customisable tags.

And even unlock the contact details of the profiles you’re most interested in.

Now that we’ve covered how it works, we wanted to also touch upon why it works. The Recruiter product is powered by IndieFolio’s Network which combines the strength of our community and our widespread offline reach through our events to produce the most relevant results when it comes to the search for creative resources.
