Working with a professional recruiter

Today's business environment is extremely competitive. Like college and professional sports, the teams and businesses that can consistently surface and recruit the best players will regularly beat the teams who settle for average players. Ask yourself these questions:

1. How much time and money has it cost you so far to have key positions vacant?
2. How much money will your business save by using a Professional Recruiter?


Do you need a Professional Recruiter?

Following are a few thoughts why using a Professional Recruiter will benefit your company.

Think about the amount of time it takes for your managers to surface, screen, and interview, negotiate and hire the best potential candidate. As you know, many times a resume portrays an excellent candidate to be bad and a bad candidate to be excellent. A professional recruiter would search, screen, qualify and present only those candidates who meet the predetermined requirements saving you and your company substantial time and energy.

Think about the money lost and the morale of your team when positions are left open for extended periods of time. Most Professional Recruiters have seen open positions lead to many other open positions. Many times managers themselves get burned out due to positions being open too long.

Think about the effect continuous advertising has on you and your company’s reputation. Psychologically, the best candidates become very weary of companies who constantly run advertisements. Questions they have about turnover, morale, management style and the company's security cause them not to pursue advertised opportunities. Therefore it is much better for a company to seek confidentiality when seeking top talent. In addition, why would any company want their competition to know how difficult it is for them to hire top talent?

Think about most of the candidates who are looking for a new job as compared to the candidates who are not. Much of the top talent is very happy with their current position. They simply are not spending the time reading the classifieds…they are dedicating their time to performance. A Professional Recruiter’s skill is in helping two good people come together. The best candidates can be recruited by the combined efforts of a Professional Recruiter and a successful hiring manager.


A candidate is much more likely to tell a Professional Recruiter why they would consider making a career move.

Many times a hiring manager is left to guess what is motivating a candidate. The recruiter acts as a third party negotiator concentrating on bringing the two parties to a mutually benefiting relationship.


Nobody knows the marketplace better than a Professional Recruiter.

A Professional Recruiter works 8 plus hours a day talking to the people who know the business. They know your competitors. They know who’s doing the business and who is not. They know what it would take to recruit a key player from your competition, but most of all they know how to help you keep your key players on your team.
