Recruit Complete review
A broad ATS and workforce system for staffing firms that also need payroll operations.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Recruit Complete is a cloud-based recruitment management platform for recruitment businesses and teams across blue- and white-collar, service, hospitality, health and community-care industries. Its front-office base solution covers applicant tracking, CV parsing, configurable screening assessments, scheduling, recruitment communications, onboarding and induction workflows. It also extends into CRM, sales, billing, timesheets and mobile scheduling, making it relevant to firms managing both permanent and temporary recruitment. The platform is available on web, iOS and Android.
Its strongest distinction is breadth. Recruit Complete connects candidate management with allocation, timesheets, award interpretation, billing and workforce administration rather than stopping at the hiring pipeline. The optional Payroll plan adds automated timesheet and payroll processing, continuous processing, and AU and NZ legislative compliance. The separate Xero Integration plan adds Xero payroll integration for Australia and New Zealand, while listed integrations also include MYOB, Gusto and Gmail. Staffing firms that want recruitment and operational workflows in one system should find this wider scope more relevant than a narrowly focused ATS.
Pricing is paid, with the published starting specification at AUD 150, excluding GST. The front-office base solution includes applicant tracking, screening assessments, CV parsing, scheduling, timesheets and billing, plus mobile scheduling and timesheets. Payroll and Xero integration are additional plan options, so buyers should assess which operational modules they need before comparing total cost. Recruit Complete is a strong fit for staffing businesses that coordinate candidates, placements, timesheets and payroll; organizations seeking only a simple applicant tracking system may prefer a narrower product.
