Recruitment Consultant Tips-How To Be Happy At Work

GSR2R


I am an avid reader. I have all my favorite websites bookmarked andregularly surf on myIpad at night. Recently Ifound a huge amountof popular articles onhow to be happy at work.

I am fascinated by this topic. Why? Because it’s never been an issue for me.

I love what I do and I also understand that it might not be the same for others.

Reading through the various suggestions and ideas I decided to create a top 5ways to be happy at work for recruiters. Ready to get going?


1. Love your job

I know it’s obvious and yetsome people don’t. Let’sexplore this more.

If you don’t love your jobthere are likely to be a number of reasons.

Listen up here because this is important.


If people are not your ‘thing’ you will never get what, ‘working in recruitment’ is all about. I agree it is a well-rewarded industry and yet it isn’t all about money.

The foundation is related to making dreams come true. The might be corny, yet think about it?

If you don’t feel like punching the air because your candidate is ecstatic when they phone you to say; ‘I got it’ you need to check if you have a pulse!


2. Make sure you are working for the right company

This is a huge thing for many recruitment consultants.

Admittedly any role has a settling in period and adapting to new systems and processes takes time.


Hopefully you will have done your homework first before you moved to your new employer.

As a rec to rec company ourselves we ALWAYS make sure candidates and clients are a fit and a match at all levels!

Now we know many people reading this have not worked with us yet so read on for some ideas.


The key thing here is values, or in plain English ‘what’s important to you’. If your values are different to your new recruitmentcompanies then it isn’tgoing to work.

A few well-placedquestions and theiranswers at interview can be revealing.


For instance if; family, care and friendship are important to you and you are in a company where there is no socializing after work and asking for an hour off to see your Mum in hospital is frowned upon; it is unlikely you will be a happy recruiter.


3. Get organized

There is nothingmore stressful thanbeing disorganized.


Stress doesn’t generally sit well with happiness by the way.

Batch your work and always have a plan for your week and you will find that your world becomes much calmer than you ever thought possible.


4. Avoid negativity

I often quote a famoussaying that; ‘you can’t hangaround negative people andexpected to be positive!’

The truth is negative people wear you down and they are not fun to be around either.


I am not saying that your work life should be all positive thinking and crazy practical jokes.

Just like we probably all agree that upbeat people, and their energy have a profound effect on our mood, it is the exact opposite when it comes to negative people; they don’t have a great effect.

They sap energy, frustrate us and even worse; we end up feeling negative too!


5. Stretch yourself

Might sound counter intuitiveand this can have a hugeimpact. Every recruiter willhave activities that are nottheir favorite thing to do.In the words of a famoussports brand; ‘just do it’.


It is a well-documented fact that doing things outside our comfort zone expands us; it also gives us a high. My own opinion is it makes us realize how good we can be. Do that consistently and your self-esteem and confidence will grow. As that happens I guarantee your happiness meter will soon be off the scale.
