Recruiting agencies today face enormous pressure to deliver faster, smarter, and more personalized results for clients. But too often, recruiters are trapped in an endless cycle of logging into multiple platforms, re-entering data, chasing down background checks, posting jobs one by one, or juggling a patchwork of disconnected tools.
The result? Wasted time, frustrated teams, and missed opportunities.
That’s exactly why Top Echelon built the Marketplace—a hub of integrations designed to extend the power of TE Recruit®, the all-in-one ATS and CRM for agency recruiters. By connecting TE Recruit with best-in-class tools across sourcing, background checks, communication, job posting, payroll, and more, recruiters can eliminate busywork and focus on what really matters: building relationships and making placements.
This article is your complete guide to the Top Echelon Marketplace—what it is, why it exists, the integrations available now, and what’s coming soon. If you’ve ever wished your recruiting software worked more like a central command center than a stand-alone database, this is your roadmap.
Why the Marketplace Exists
Recruiters don’t just use one system to run their businesses. They rely on job boards, email platforms, payroll tools, video conferencing, sourcing platforms, and more. The problem? These tools often don’t talk to each other.
Top Echelon listened to hundreds of customers who asked for integrations that would make their daily work easier. Instead of forcing recruiters into rigid workflows, Top Echelon’s Marketplace brings everything together.
The idea is simple:
-
Choose the tools you already use or want to try.
-
Connect them seamlessly with TE Recruit™.
-
Work faster, smarter, and with fewer steps.
Think of the Marketplace as an ever-expanding toolbox. You keep TE Recruit™ as your base system, and then plug in the add-ons that make sense for your niche, business model, and clients.
Current Marketplace Integrations
The Top Echelon Marketplace already features 30+ integrations (and growing). Below are some of the most impactful categories and tools you can start using right now.
1. Payroll, Billing, and Back-Office Support
Billflow is one of the standout partners.
If you place contractors, you know how time-consuming timesheets, invoicing, and compliance can be. Billflow acts as a bridge between TE Recruit™, your payroll providers, and accounting software.
-
Contractors log their hours directly in Billflow.
-
Clients can sign off on timesheets electronically.
-
Billing and invoicing sync automatically.
-
Recruiters gain real-time reporting to track client profitability and recruiter performance.
Instead of moving data manually, Billflow automates the process, keeps you compliant, and ensures nothing slips through the cracks.
2. Background Checks and Compliance
Hiring isn’t complete until due diligence is done. That’s why the Marketplace offers integrations with Checker and Verified First.
-
Checker: Start a background check directly from a candidate’s record in TE Recruit™. Results flow back into the system automatically.
-
Verified First: Offers not only background checks but also drug screening, with results logged directly in TE Recruit™.
These tools keep your workflow streamlined, your clients confident, and your process compliant.
3. Email and Calendar Integrations
Recruiters live in email and on their calendars. That’s why TE Recruit™ integrates deeply with Google Workspace and Microsoft Outlook.
-
Emails: Send one-to-one messages through Gmail or Outlook servers, reducing spam risks. Emails log as activities in TE Recruit™ and still appear in your Sent folder.
-
Attachments: Add resumes, agreements, or notes from your ATS directly to emails.
-
Calendar Sync: Schedule interviews or follow-ups in TE Recruit™ and see them automatically appear in Google Calendar or Outlook.
-
Virtual Meetings: Add Google Meet or Microsoft Teams links to events right from the ATS.
No more toggling between systems. No more double-booking. Just seamless communication.
4. Job Boards and Candidate Sourcing
Posting jobs across multiple platforms is one of the most repetitive tasks in recruiting. The Marketplace solves this by connecting TE Recruit™ to leading job boards:
-
Monster: Post organically (free but limited visibility) or via Top Echelon’s paid posting service for wider reach.
-
ZipRecruiter: Post directly if you have a ZipRecruiter account, or indirectly via Top Echelon’s posting service. Candidates flow back into your pipeline automatically.
-
Talent.com: Jobs posted through Top Echelon’s paid service appear here too, expanding your reach internationally.
-
Jobvertise: Another job board supported through Top Echelon’s posting service.
With these integrations, your jobs reach more candidates without extra data entry, and applicants land directly in your pipeline ready for review.
5. AI-Powered Note-Taking and Automation
Recruiters lose countless hours scribbling notes during intake calls, candidate debriefs, and client meetings. That’s why Top Echelon partnered with Quill.ai.
Quill automatically:
-
Listens to your calls (virtual or in-person).
-
Summarizes conversations using your templates (e.g., client intake, candidate interview).
-
Posts the summary as a completed activity in TE Recruit™.
Instead of frantically typing, recruiters can stay present in the conversation, knowing everything is captured and organized.
6. Marketing and Websites for Recruiters
Your agency’s digital presence is just as important as your database. That’s where Recruiters Websites comes in.
They build custom recruiter websites that integrate with TE Recruit™, so your job postings display seamlessly on your site. They also offer marketing services, including:
-
TalentScribe: AI-generated niche content to boost your credibility and LinkedIn presence.
-
Campaign strategies: Multi-channel marketing to clients and candidates.
-
Brand customization: A career site that matches your agency’s unique brand, not a cookie-cutter template.
This integration ensures your ATS and your website are always in sync, while also giving you tools to stand out in your niche.
7. Multi-Channel Outreach
The days of relying on email alone are over. SourceWale helps recruiters reach candidates and clients through coordinated campaigns across email, text, phone, and LinkedIn.
-
Build workflows for candidate engagement or client business development.
-
Drop candidates or prospects into campaigns directly from TE Recruit™.
-
Activities (emails sent, texts delivered, calls scheduled) log back into candidate or client records.
It’s automated, personalized outreach at scale—without losing the human touch.
Coming Soon: What’s Next for the Marketplace
Top Echelon isn’t stopping at the current 30+ integrations. The Marketplace is expanding rapidly, with exciting partnerships on the horizon:
-
Dice: Tech-focused job postings.
-
FoxHire: Full contractor back-office and compliance management.
-

Why Integrations Matter for Recruiting Agencies
At the end of the day, integrations aren’t just “nice-to-haves.” They are business-critical.
Here’s why:
-
Speed = Competitive Advantage: The first recruiter to submit a candidate often wins. Integrated workflows shave hours off every search.
-
Reduced Errors: Manual re-entry of data leads to mistakes. Integrations ensure accuracy and compliance.
-
Stronger Relationships: With automation handling repetitive tasks, recruiters can spend more time building trust with clients and candidates.
-
Scalability: As your agency grows, disconnected tools create bottlenecks. The Marketplace gives you a scalable tech stack.
The agencies that thrive are the ones that combine great recruiters with great technology.
