Training & Mentorship

The high-end staffing industry is amongst the

least known yet most lucrative consultative

advisory careers, So, let's explore the nature

of the beast you are courting – or being

courted by.

Recruiters organize their days in various

ways, all centred around certain basic

activities. A Headhunter, you might say,

manages the flow of several pipelines, which

must stay full, alive, and vibrant if the

business is to be successful. A recruiter

focuses on balancing these activities and

increasing the flow in each of the following

pipelines:

1. Business Development: Searches are the

lifeblood of a recruiting organization. Without

specific positions to fill, the Headhunter is out

of business. Therefore, a major thrust for a

recruiter is continually obtaining searches

through all manner of marketing, new client

origination, existing client account servicing,

referrals and advertising.

2. Talent Acquisition: Of course, without

qualified and appropriate professionals to fill

those openings, a Headhunter is headless.

So, recruiters constantly and vigorously

pursue all avenues to add heads to their

storehouse of possibly placeable

professionals. Whether a candidate is

sourced (obtained) indirectly through a

website, or referral, or directly through that

always exciting cold-call to an unsuspecting

professional, a successful Headhunter is

unceasingly managing a flow of contacts,

relationships, and resumes of viable

candidates.

3. Broking: It's great (and essential) to

have an ongoing flow in the first two

pipelines, but if they are not coming together,

you're looking at one inefficient, ineffective

recruiter. “Send Outs” are exactly that:

sending out a viable candidate on a viable

search. The initial hurdles of the placement

process have now been cleared:

a) A company has found a presented

candidate interesting enough to interview

b) A candidate has found a presented

employment opportunity interesting enough

to interview for

c) A recruiter, who has done all the

presenting, has established a specific time

and place for the interview (The ultimate

matchmaking, yes?)

4. Deal Makers: Placements are what a

Headhunter's life is all about. We enjoy

developing relationships, having fun, living

our daily lives, but we are in the business of,

and stay in business only by, making

placements. In a perfect world, placements

are those magical moments when, as in

dating, everything clicks so well with both

parties that two pieces of the puzzle snap

right into place. Unlike marriage, the

candidate and company are not committed to

spending their lives with one another, yet

they are definitely going steady.

Unfortunately, the placement process is not

always so "magical" and requires the

experienced mediation, management,

communication, and even arm-chair-

psychologist skills of a recruiter - not to

mention sales ability. Making placements and

closing deals is a Headhunter's all-

encompassing pipeline activity.
