What does it take to succeed
in recruiting?
Many people are attracted to recruiting as a profession
because the financial rewards can be outstanding; our best recruiters
consistently earn well up in six figures. But, these rewards don’t
come easily, because recruiting is demanding work. Over the years
at Richard, Wayne & Roberts, we’ve seen that successful recruiters
all share some common traits. They are hardworking, dynamic, and
tenacious. A temporary setback doesn’t get them down, it makes them
more resolute. They have drive and ambition, directed by a desire
to succeed and become respected by others in their field. Successful
recruiters also have good problem-solving and investigative skills
and good communications and diplomatic abilities. Finally, they
have a solid work ethic and are self-motivated.
Is recruiting a respected profession?
Yes, despite all you might have heard about “headhunters”.
Our recruiters specialize in a business segment or industry, literally
becoming an accepted part of that industry. They work hard to understand
its ups and downs, its language, and its market structure. In time,
they also become intimately familiar with each client company’s
corporate culture and personnel needs. They become an indispensable
link in the hiring process between clients and candidates, an expert
who sees that process from both sides and offers guidance that leads
to win-win hiring decisions. Our clients pay well for this service,
because they have learned that we give them their money’s worth.
As you build your own network of client companies and
potential candidates, you will establish your own reputation for
finding and recognizing outstanding prospects for important jobs
and for following through from start to finish. Your clients will
be happy to hear from you when you call, because they have confidence
that you can help them succeed.
What do our recruiters do every
day?
If you’ve never worked as a recruiter, you might be
interested in what a recruiter has to do. At Richard, Wayne &
Roberts, a typical day consists of scheduling appointments, making
cold calls, screening candidates, checking references, helping candidates
prepare for interviews, rewriting resumés, negotiating agreements,
interacting with coworkers, identifying candidates for job openings,
presenting job opportunities to potential candidates, and promoting
candidates to fellow recruiters and clients.
On top of all that, our recruiters keep up with their
chosen industry or discipline. This means staying on top of technological
advancements, new venture startups, mergers and acquisitions, and
more, by reading papers and trade journals and talking with others
in your field. You not only need to keep up with your clients, you
need to know what their competition is doing and where the entire
industry is headed. That’s how you earn a client’s respect and confidence.
You cannot be afraid of long hours, including late nights
and some weekends. Recruiting is not always a neat 9-to-5 time-clock
career. If candidates cannot speak freely at their current jobs,
you will need to be available on evenings or weekends to accommodate
them.
Is training important?
Even people with ideal recruiting skill sets still must
learn and use some important, proven techniques. At Richard, Wayne
& Roberts, you’ll receive the best training in the recruiting
industry. After an initial orientation, during which you decide
what your specialty will be, you’ll spend several months working
side-by-side with one of our senior recruiters, who will help you
start building your own network of resources. Even after you become
part of a specialty team, you get to participate in weekly training
sessions that help you develop and refine your skills. We do all
we can to help you succeed.
Who will be your clients?
At Richard, Wayne & Roberts, we recruit for a wide
variety of companies, from international Fortune 500 corporations
with tens of thousands of employees to small business ventures in
which a few key people do it all. You’ll work with top-level executives
and managers at every level to solve staffing needs. With your in-depth
knowledge of your field, you will gradually become an integral part
of your clients’ hiring process, developing job descriptions and
candidate profiles, and advising on offers. You will be qualified
to identify individual candidates that best suit an organization
and negotiate offers between the two.
