Working in the rec to rec field as long as we have we can certainly guide you in the right direction.

Beyond a good billingrecord and the right skillsAnd knowledge, recruitmentmanagers are looking forpeople with competencies and behaviorsthat put their heads well and truly above the bar.


Here are some of the traits and attributes that can make you a great potential hire:

1. Immersing yourself inthe industry

Do you live and breatherecruitment (at least during business hours)?


Recruitment managers love candidates who are conversant in all of the latest industry news.

Do you know who all of the other key players in your sector are?

Have you seen the latest research and statistics relating to that important area of your business?


Being an avid reader of industry websites and news, and being plugged into recruitment’s leading thinkers on social networks shows that you are genuinely enthusiastic about the world you work in and how to arm yourself with all the freshest information.

There are free webinars on recruitment every week; sign up for them, learn new ‘stuff’ that works and use it.

Beyond creating opportunities with clients and candidates, you can really impress if you are somebody who is motivated to help the business in new and interesting ways.

Is there a software tool you have used in the past that you could help bring in here? Do you know of some good training that might help your new team?


Are you connected with people who can help get your company better publicity? Demonstrate how you can, and will use your knowledge and network beyond the requirements for your role. Make suggestions, and offer ways to help.

Beyond this, being able to help cultivate skills in other team members and giving them the encouragement to develop is not something that is reserved for supervisory roles – good coaching and mentoring skills are something recruitment managers and directors look for in all potential employees.


Essentially, these three behaviours all come about as a result of a person being highly motivated, and enthusiastic about what they do.

Being proactive is a word that is thrown around a lot in business.

The proactive recruiters are always the ones that get the best placements, smash their billings and as a rule of thumb get promoted faster.

Over the years we have found that consultants who demonstrate these skills on a consistent and regular basis are the ones we can place easily and who get the jobs of their dreams.
