Bottom line

Recruitment agency network from Australia where agencies list themselves free, share roles with other agencies on agreed fee splits and pitch for employer hiring briefs. Network is $34 a month with 2 seats and a 30 day trial, and Agency Growth at $104 a month adds a full candidate CRM and ATS. A direct Zoho Recruit connection sends reviewed candidates and CVs from TAP to your Zoho account. TAP takes no placement commission.

Stands out for: It covers both sides of agency new business in one place: agency to agency split roles with terms agreed before any candidate is introduced, plus employer briefs where companies post a role with no sign up and agencies submit competing proposals on fee and approach. Prices are flat per agency with 2 seats included and no per role or placement fee, and a direct Zoho Recruit connection lets agencies keep their existing candidate database.

Watch out for: The network is newer than long running split networks, so check how many shared roles and employer briefs exist in your niche and region before paying. External job board posting is not available yet, ads publish only to TAP's own board, and the full ATS and CRM sits on the $104 Growth plan rather than Network. The Zoho Recruit link moves selected candidates one way, so it is not a full sync.

Overview

TAP, short for Talent Acquisition Platform, is a global recruitment network run by TalentChoice Group in Australia. It connects recruitment agencies with each other, with employers looking for agency help, and with candidates through a separate TAP Jobseeker site.

For split recruitment, a role owning agency posts a shared role, a candidate partner agency offers people for it, and the two agree the fee split and responsibilities before any introduction. Candidate permission is required before an introduction, and TAP records attribution, accepted terms and payment records, although it does not move placement money itself.

Employers can post a hiring brief from the website without signing up. Agencies on a paid plan submit proposals covering experience, approach, fee and terms, and the employer compares them and picks a partner. A free public agency profile also puts each agency in a searchable directory by specialism and location.

Agency Growth adds the recruitment workspace: client and business development CRM, candidate database and talent pools, ATS pipelines, interviews, offers, placements, onboarding, résumé parsing, follow up automation, CV and CSV imports, browser capture and branded quarterly client reports. A personal TAP ID lets one recruiter switch between several agency workspaces, each keeping its own records.

TAP connects directly to Zoho Recruit. An agency links its own Zoho account from the Candidates area, reviews a candidate's details, CV and any possible duplicates, and sends the selected record, with an optional CV, to Zoho. It is a transfer of chosen candidates from TAP to Zoho, not continuous two way sync or external job board posting, and your TAP plan, permissions and Zoho account and API access apply. TAP also supports Outlook for email and calendar and has a free Chrome extension, Add to TAP, that captures a visible profile for review.

Pricing is a free agency profile, Network at $34 a month, Agency Growth at $104 a month and a standalone Employer Workspace at $69 a month, each paid plan with 2 seats and extra seats at $14 a month. Network and Growth have a 30 day free trial, and billing is available in nine currencies.

Agency ATS and CRM. On Agency Growth: client and business development CRM, candidate database and talent pools, ATS pipelines, interviews, offers, placements, résumé parsing, follow up automation, CV and CSV imports, browser capture and branded client reports.

Zoho Recruit connection. Connect your own Zoho Recruit account, review a candidate's details, CV and possible duplicates, then send the selected record to Zoho. It is a one way transfer of chosen candidates, not continuous two way sync or job board posting.
