Great post, I couldn’t agree more. Let’s start to claim back Recruitment as a Professional Service.

Spot on. We should place more emphasis on the consulting part of our role and create a better reputation for the industry. I make a point of only dealing with clients who want an easy process and me to do the hard work. Why anyone would pay a fee just to be inundated with cvs is beyond me.

Building recruiter equity does not happen overnight. but will happen if you are committed to your career in recruitment. We as an industry need to get out from behind our computers and back in front of clients developing relationships. Hopefully, this recession will teach everyone the value of the back to basics appropach to recruitment.

Greg
nice simplified explanation of why recruitment can be have such a high turnover and too many have a transactional approach. Building up equity takes time and effort.

I think as a recruiter it is important to want to treat people with some compassion and empathy, not a ‘product’ that has a fee attached like some in our industry do.

One of the best articles I have read in a LONG time!!! You nailed Greg! The above attitude combined with pure raw execution and implementation is how the big billers I associate with operate.

Nicely done
