I got this nice message off a candidate last week and it got me thinking.
I hear so frequently about how rubbish some recruiters are. Clients get sent irrelevant resumes, candidates feel forced to take a job that they don't want.
Is the bar with recruiters so low that listening to someone's needs, makes a candidate feel special? As recruiters, our jobs are to problem solve. If you don't listen, how can you understand what their needs are?????
This goes for working with clients as well. You listen to understand your clients specialty (so you find the right people) and your clients needs. If they need a steel estimator and I send a mechanical estimator, have I listened?
AND MY BIGGEST PET HATE that recruiters do (for me anyway), is forcing. When placing people, it has to feel right for both parties. I'm a firm believer that the right person is out there for every job. I would much rather spend more time & effort into finding someone else and not force a candidate to take the job, so I can have a quick win... same goes for companies. I'm not going to force a company to work with me if the timings not right. I pride myself on my ability and I know at some point in time, they will need me and that's when I'll be there ???
I didn't do anything special here, I just did what I'm supposed to do...
I Am Trying To Crack Gate Exam for my feature ??. Some Opportunities is doing the WELCOME of me??
