Turning challenges into opportunities — Francis on growing through juucy

When I joined juucy, I knew the platform worked exclusively within the German market. Although this was something new for me, I didn’t see the language requirement as an obstacle. I took it as a challenge to improve my sourcing strategy and approach. Interestingly, some candidates I reached out to—even those not looking for a new job—started referring their friends. That really helped expand my network and made the experience more rewarding.

Navigating the platform is very easy. With so many positions available, I can focus on the ones where I already have a strong candidate pool and higher chances of success. The interface is clear and simple, which makes it easy to stay organized and work efficiently.

My favorite feature is the Dashboard. It allows me to see my key metrics and compare my performance with other recruiters. Seeing that my statistics are above the platform average gives me confidence that I’m submitting the right candidates and delivering quality results.

The biggest benefit is the freedom to choose which roles I want to work on — whether tech or non-tech. It gives me flexibility and variety in my day-to-day work. I also love being able to communicate with candidates from different backgrounds and cultures. Landing my first hire was such an exhilarating moment, and now I’m even more motivated to get that next one!

If you want to earn well and have access to many open positions, juucy is definitely a great platform to work with. The support you get — from hiring guidance to detailed briefing notes — is a big help when sourcing candidates. My advice is to pay close attention to the client’s must-haves and criteria so you can send the most suitable profiles. And when candidates get rejected, always read the feedback — it gives you valuable insight into what the client is really looking for.
