The Recruiter Brief
Newsletter - by Amruta Bhargava | Senior TECH Recruiter | 10+ years across EUROPE
Every Tuesday, one issue. Real hiring intelligence from inside the EU tech market:
✅ What's actually driving rejections — and how to avoid them
✅ Salary insights by role, seniority, and country — not posted ranges, real ones
✅ Which companies are actively sponsoring visas — and which ones aren't worth your time
✅ Hidden Job roles and opportunities before they reach job boards
✅ How hiring decisions are actually made — and where strong candidates lose
Who Writes This & Why
"I have rejected thousands of CVs, made hundreds of hiring decisions, and said 'No' more times than I'm proud of."
Behind almost every rejection is a hiring context invisible from the outside - salaries, market conditions, internal decisions, timing, wild card entries, frozen headcount. A strong profile at the wrong moment still gets rejected. That's the gap this newsletter was built to close.
Every Tuesday, I share clear EU Hiring insights from the recruiter's side of the table. No theory. No generic advice. Just what I've watched work across thousands of real hiring decisions in the European tech market.
Whether you're an expat navigating the EU job market, or a local professional ready to move up, if you've been rejected without understanding why, or ghosted after asking about visa sponsorship, this is the context that was missing. And it's here every Tuesday.
