How to deal with Recruiters
Our many years of experience as recruitment consultants allow
us to bring a unique 'insider' perspective to career coaching.
We know what goes on behind the scenes in recruitment agencies
and can advise you about when to contact a recruitment
consultant, how to approach them and how to build a relationship
with them so they keep calling you with opportunities.
Our soon-to-be-released book, 'How to Deal with Recruitment Consultants', is a
clear, concise guide as to how the recruitment industry operates, and how to use
this to your advantage. In an easy-to-read, no-nonsense style, it advises you
about how to build relationships with the 'right' kind of recruiters - those who
balance your needs with those of their client. Another CareerBuilders resource,
helping you become a savvy job hunter who understands the 'how to' of landing
the top opportunities.
How to Handle Rejection
Rejection is never easy; however, by determining why you
were unsuccessful on this occasion, our consultants work
with you to facilitate your future success. We identify your
development curve, in view of where you are now and where
you would like to be. Our training (link to training page)
capability then enables us to assist you in bridging the
gaps.
How to Build a Network
Networking - a buzzword that's nearly a cliché, but in
practice what does it mean? At CareerBuilders, we identify
the networking opportunities currently available to you and
guide you in utilizing those to further your career. Your
colleagues, managers and recruitment consultants offer
opportunities in this area, if you're skilled in making
these relationships work for you.
How to Approach the Opportunity
Your approach to recruiters - its timing, form and style -
is basic to the success of your job applications. Being able
to clearly articulate your next move and what your relevance
is for that move is essential to your success. Without this
specific targeting and clarity, recruiters will struggle to
understand where to place you and without their active
promotion, it will prove very difficult to land the job you
want. CareerBuilders' coaching assists you in identifying
your position in relation to recruiters and the appropriate
self-promotional steps.
How to Qualify the Opportunity
Not every opportunity is a good one. To move in the
direction that will make you happy and successful, all
opportunities must be evaluated according to your career
goals and ideal work environment. By helping you identify
the job criteria that are important to you, we help you
decide which jobs are right for you.
