Recruiting is not an easy job. Anyone who tells you it is either hasn’t been a recruiter before or is trying to recruit entry level recruiters.
 
That is not to say that that there aren’t some fantastic recruiters who are flawless in their execution because there are. There are a lot of fantastic recruiters and I think that is part of the problem.
 
Consider this: If the better a recruiter becomes the easier recruiting looks, could it be that when people say “recruiting is easy” what they really mean I want to work with good recruiters only? I know it could be a stretch but how many people do you know that want to work with a “bad” recruiter or a recruiter that makes it all look like such a grind?
 
Managing perceptions is just one element of being able to establish a solid recruiting practice. Realistically managing the expectation of hiring managers and clients is another. If you think those things are hard – either for yourself, your team and/or your organization – then how would you feel if you could make those things look easy? How would you like to discover the possibilities of being “fantastic?”

I want to personally invite you to join me and a few others for a day of recruiter training. We explore these types of question and understand how to apply some proven methods for developing personal and professional potential:

What: STREAMline Recruiter Training Boot Camp and program primer

When: Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

Where: Marriott Perimeter Center, 246 Perimeter Center Parkway NE, Atlanta, GA 30346
In addition to understanding how to build and apply a bullet-proof candidate profile the day covers a range of concepts and practical applications designed to help you develop a systematic approach to the first steps in the recruiting process that include:

• How to engage hiring managers and recast the working relationship so that recruiters can deliver their strategic payload

• How to remain in control while firing on all cylinders and delivering previously agreed goals

• How to build the candidate profile as the blueprint for developing sourcing strategies, screening and assessment and behavioral interviewing questions and what-have-you

• How to get buy in, interdepartmental cooperation, budgets and other resources to facilitate the recruiting mission

• Securing adequate resources and commitment to properly execute the sourcing strategy, engage candidates and move the process along

…and anything else that comes up on the day as it relates to getting orientated and staying on track for most recruiting assignments.

This highly interactive training — which is delivered through the RCI Center of Excellence — is also designed to introduce you to some new approaches in recruiter best-practice which we have been working on for a good while now as part of our process improvement for RCI’s sourcing and RPO clients.

What’s the cost?

The cost* for the day’s training is as follows:

• Per individual recruiter/seat…$1,600.00

• Per Recruiting/HR Manager…$1,600.00 includes a single complimentary seat for one additional trainee

• Per Recruiting/HR Director…$1,600.00 includes two complimentary seats for two additional trainees

• Per VP, Recruiting/HR…$1,800.00 includes three complimentary seats for three additional trainees

If you don’t think that recruiting is a particularly easy job and/or would like to see it getting easier, please make a point of joining me, will you?

As seating is limited — no, it really is! — I would like to talk to anyone who thinks they might like to come to make sure that we do have a good fit and that this is a program that will benefit everyone. My direct dial is: (561) 868-1784 or you can email me if you’d rather.

See you in Atlanta!
