bullhorn
ATS / Recruitment CRM
BullhornThe candidate and client record is the single source of truth. We use Bullhorn as the central CRM so every conversation, placement and invoice is searchable, traceable and auditable.
The EQ Group Stack
HOLI is our superpower. The rest is the infrastructure.
Every brand inside EQ Group runs on a tightly integrated recruitment operating system. We lead with HOLI as the intelligence layer between market signal and placement, then layer Bullhorn, LinkedIn Sales Navigator or Recruiter, Konquest, Slack, Teams and Full Enrich around it.
The Superpower
HOLI: the intelligence layer between what you learn and who you place.
HOLI is not just another tool. It captures every signal you scroll past, files it to a person and a niche, and drafts the next outreach move in your voice, with a visible source. That means recruiters spend less time writing cold messages and more time having warm conversations.

Stack Architecture
Built around HOLI. Wired for performance.
We do not hand a founder a list of logins and hope it works. We design, integrate and manage these tools as a single system so every brand starts from the same high standard.

Why This Stack Wins
Intelligence at the centre, not the edge.
HOLI feeds the whole system
Market signals captured in HOLI flow into Bullhorn records, Slack conversations and LinkedIn outreach. Intelligence becomes action, not a report left unread.
Integrated, not bolted on
Each layer is chosen to talk to the others. Candidate records, commissions, client conversations and dashboards share the same data instead of living in silos.
Founder-led, not IT-heavy
A founder should not need a systems engineer to run a desk. We configure the stack so recruiters can use it from day one with minimal training.
Continuously reviewed
Recruitment technology changes quickly. We evaluate new tools quarterly and upgrade the stack when a better option materially improves speed, cost or compliance.

Technical Ledger
Common questions about the stack.
What is HOLI and why do you lead with it?
HOLI is the intelligence layer between what you learn and who you place. It captures market signals, files them to a person and a niche, and drafts the next outreach move in the recruiter's voice, with a visible source. We lead with it because it turns passive reading into active, source-backed outreach.
Which ATS does EQ Group use?
We use Bullhorn as the core ATS and recruitment CRM across the group. It acts as the single source of truth for candidates, clients, conversations, placements and invoices.
What does Konquest do in the stack?
Konquest automates recruiter commission calculations. It replaces spreadsheet tracking, gives consultants real-time visibility into earnings and helps finance maintain accuracy across complex commission plans.
How does the stack differ for US and UK founders?
The core principles are the same: one source of truth, integrated workflows and clean reporting. The specific data sources, privacy settings and compliance configurations vary by region to match local rules.
Can I keep tools I already use?
Yes, where it makes sense. We audit what is already working, then integrate or replace only the pieces that create friction. The goal is a unified operating system, not a forced migration.
