Advisor to small recruitment firms looking to scale to 7 figures | Check out my website to see about working together

Two years ago, I started working with a boutique recruiting agency that had hit a wall.

The founder was stuck. No consistent pipeline. Sales were reactive. Everything depended on him — and when he focused on delivery, growth stalled.

Over 18 months, we rebuilt his outbound engine from the ground up. Account targeting, messaging, automation, KPIs — all designed to operate without him. Today, that firm has scaled to $5.6M, and their pipeline runs with consistency and control.

That story isn’t unique. Since then, I’ve helped dozens of founder-led recruiting firms move from ad hoc sales to structured, scalable growth.

I do this through The Systematic Recruiter — a proven 90-day method to build outbound systems that generate pipeline even when the founder is focused on running the business, not stuck inside it.

This isn’t coaching theory. I work hands-on inside my clients’ CRMs — writing sequences, mapping targeting frameworks, and building processes they can rely on.

The outcome? A fully operational sales system designed to run without the founder.

Most of my clients come to me when they’re ready to move beyond survival mode and scale with intention.

If you're still relying on referrals, sporadic outreach, or bursts of activity during slow months — it’s time for a system.

Book a call and I’ll walk you through it. No pitch unless it’s a fit.

I’m not the loudest guy in the room.

But if you’re a founder trying to hire right, or a recruiter trying to build something tangible, you’ll probably say what most of my clients say:

“Ranjith gets it.”

I started my career as an accountant.

But it didn’t take long to realize I was more drawn to people than numbers—more curious about team building than balance sheets.

That shift led me to build Raks Group, an IT & recruiting firm I’ve been running since 2016, shaped by operator experience, founder empathy, and a no-nonsense approach.

𝐑𝐚𝐤𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐋𝐋𝐂 wasn’t built to be flashy. It was built to be effective. We help fast-moving teams hire with more clarity, stronger alignment, and long-term confidence.

From early-stage startups to scaling orgs, we’ve supported companies across the U.S. with end-to-end hiring, placing people who don’t just fit the job, but fit the mission.

Whether it’s the company’s first 10 hires or critical exec roles, we come in when the stakes are high and the margin for error is low.

But there’s another side to what I do.

When I started, I searched everywhere for a real roadmap to launch and scale a recruiting business.
All I found were recycled PDFs and noisy playbooks.

So I built the thing I wish existed.

𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐄𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞 — a free course + private community for recruiters who want to do this differently.

Not the flexers. Not the growth-hack crowd.

The ones who care about reputation more than revenue.

It took 4 months of deep work and creating systems, lessons, and frameworks to build this launchpad.

Now it’s helping recruiters take control, go independent, and build something that lasts.

And lately, we’ve gone deeper. At Raks, we’ve also started building software products that solve problems we’ve faced firsthand:

 → [SociaM8.com] — Your Social Media Management Partner! 
 → [ChatM8.ai] — AI chatbots and voice agents to handle customer conversations and daily tasks.
 → [Roar.ai] — Your screening partner that will help you hire the right person, automatically, quickly, and fairly. (Upcoming)

The mission is still the same: help great teams hire better.
Now we’re doing it through services, community, and product.

If you’re a founder who wants a recruiting partner, not a vendor—
Or a recruiter who’s finally ready to build your own thing—
You’re in the right place.

I watched a company receive 350 applications in 3 hours last week.

Their hiring manager quit reviewing after application 43.

The best candidate? She applied at hour 4.

Never seen. Never contacted. Lost in the avalanche.

Here's what nobody's talking about:

We need intelligent job throttling in our ATS platforms.

Think of highway on‑ramps during rush hour. Traffic builds up. Metering lights slow cars down. Flow improves. Crashes drop.

Why do we let job applications merge all at once?

What if your ATS could:

Detect application velocity spikes
Automatically pause the posting
Give your team time to review quality candidates
Resume when you're ready

Revolutionary? Maybe.

Controversial? Definitely.

Necessary? Absolutely.

Because right now, we're not hiring the best people.

We're hiring whoever applied in the first 2 hours before we drowned in volume.

That's not talent acquisition.

That's survival mode with a fancy title.

The technology exists. The problem is clear.

The question is: who's brave enough to build it first?

Most people don't know LinkedIn is scoring them.

Right now. Behind the scenes. Out of 100.

It's called your Social Selling Index (SSI).

And I just checked mine: I'm in the top 1% in my industry and network.

Not bragging. Just sharing what I learned.

Here's what this score actually measures:

Your profile strength.
How well you find the right people.
How much you engage with insights.
How strong your relationships are.

The higher your SSI, the more LinkedIn's algorithm works for you.
More visibility. More reach. More opportunities.

I didn't know this existed until I started #sociam8
Now I check it every month.

It changed how I show up here.
How I connect. How I engage. How I build.

And honestly? It explained a lot about why some posts work and others don't.

If you've never checked yours, here's your moment: linkedin.com/sales/ssi

Takes 10 seconds.
Might change how you see this platform.

I'm at top 1%.

What's your score?

Drop it in the comments or send me a message. I'm curious where you stand.

And if you want to know how to improve it, reach out.

I grew up in a lower-middle-class family

But my friends? They were different.

They went to English-medium schools. They traveled abroad. They lived a life I only saw from the outside.

I didn't go to an English-medium school, but their influence planted a seed in my mind: I could make it to the United States.

And I did.

When I moved to the US, I lived in a townhouse basement, and my landlord owned a cab business.

That's when it clicked.

I started my own limo business. Not because I planned it, but because I saw someone doing it every single day.

Here's what I learned:

You become who you surround yourself with.

Want to be a businessman? Network with businessmen.
Want to learn sales? Spend time with salespeople.
Want to succeed in real estate? Connect with real estate professionals.

But here's the hard truth:

If the people around you are stuck in a nine‑to‑five routine and spend their weekends drinking or killing time, it’s going to be hard to move forward. Especially if you’re serious about building a business.

Your environment shapes your ceiling.

Influence is powerful, but clarity is everything.

Identify what you want to achieve. Find your purpose. Build the right network.

That's how you create a better path forward.

What kind of people are you surrounding yourself with today?

Recruiting affects revenue long before a hire is made.

Most founders only connect hiring to revenue after someone joins.

But the real impact happens earlier:

Slow hiring = delayed delivery

Delayed delivery = missed revenue

Missed revenue = pressure on sales & ops

In several accounts we’ve supported, simply reducing time-to-hire by 25–30% unlocked:

Faster project starts

Shorter sales cycles

Better close confidence with prospects

Recruiting isn’t a support function.

It’s part of your revenue infrastructure — just like sales ops or finance.

If hiring doesn’t move revenue forward, the system is broken.
