Ep 4241. Personal Commitments - Standards and Goals

Recruitment can be thankless at times. What feels like hard work and effort doesn’t always translate into results. But are we doing the right things? Are we being distracted by other work and slowly losing sight of the things that matter?When you are responsible for your own results it’s important you have clarity on three things - the standards you choose to adopt, the goals you set for yourself and the data you track to help keep you on the right path. This episode is all about self accountability, self awareness and how to find those who can hold you in check with the promises you make out loud.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Your People EngineDelivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 4141. Top 3 Questions to Make BD Easier

BD is a hot topic right now. Many are hoping AI is going to save them and they can automate their way out of the hole. The reality is if you want to win more clients, secure better business and grow your recruitment agency you must be able to answer these three questions. Simple questions that make the entire process of building a sales strategy and set of executable tactics easier. And if you want to automate your outreach, you still have to be able to answer these questions to build any form of meaningful messaging. Otherwise you’re simply contributing to the noise.

Ep 3838. How I helped a client double their fill rate in 90 days

Fill rate is a key metric for recruitment businesses. Especially when job flow is challenged.In this episode, I share how I helped an agency double their fill rate with a focus on job quality and consultative on boarding.It takes discipline to stick to a new method of working. You have to want the outcome enough to be willing to do the work. Life is easy when you're willing to compromise quality in favour of being busy. Being busy doesn't get you paid.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 3737. Candidate Flips

It’s a tactic that’s as old as recruitment itself. Engage with a candidate whose role includes managing and leading a team, then flip them into a client.It doesn’t seem that clean any more. Too many recruiters worry about the flip as if it requires a specific moment. It’s not a judo throw. Better to shift your mindset as to the conversation you’re having and shift it to the one you should. If you want to convert more business and build lifetime relationships with senior professionals in your market, stop calling them candidates and clients. Build the lifetime value with the individual as a business professional.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 3535. Your Database is a Candidate Graveyard

Most agencies have a CRM. Few see it as the central hub for their business. Too frequently consultants become addicted to job boards and Linkedin to find today’s candidates for today’s jobs. And the CRM becomes a glorified bucket of CVs. If you want to improve your results and increase consistency of placements, take a fresh look at your CRM. I expect your next 10 placements are hidden in there somewhere. And if you’ve forgotten them, they forgot you long ago.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 3434. Relationships

Relationships are everything in recruitment. It’s the biggest defence for why AI is never going to take our jobs. Yet how often do you review the quality of relationships you have with clients, candidates and prospects? What does good look like? And what will better be? And how do you plan to get there?

Ep 3333. Is the phone dead in recruitment?

The clear answer is no. And the answer is yes. Because it’s your perception that drives decisions you make – bottom line is you can prove it is or prove it isn’t.The reality is the phone is still an important part of the fabric of a good sales strategy. A conversation will book a meeting more than an email ever will. Today we see high levels of call reluctance. Those who choose to avoid the phone are limiting their results. Even experienced recruiters are getting caught in the phone reluctance. In this episode I share root cause and a way out.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 3232. I'm Back

The podcast is back and I’m ready to share ideas with those who want to listen. It’s been six months since I last published an episode. A lot has been happening for me and in the recruitment universe. I’ve got a couple of observations from the last six months – namely recruitment has got very good at talking about the importance of business development. Yet not necessarily implemented enough to navigate the current landscape. And that ever present love it and hate it subject – Artificial Intelligence. It’s only going to get better and it will replace some recruiters and won’t replace others.The real question is will it replace your candidates?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 3131. How to Build Trust Based Relationships in Recruitment

This episode is full of gold (even if I say so myself). Everyone in recruitment claims “it’s all about relationships” and that getting people to know you, like you and trust you is important. But no one seems to share how to do it. Until now. I share the ten tools that build trust in relationship based sales and the order of ascension. Most are stuck at levels one to three. Take your client and candidate relationships high into the top tiers of level 8, 9 and 10 and you’ll have partners for life.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 2929. 3 Biggest Barriers to Growing Your Recruitment Business

Running your own recruitment business is tough. It’s hard enough running your own desk in an agency. The market is volatile, there is competition everywhere – for people’s attention and their wallets. Everyone believes they’re good at what they do and that they should be a natural choice for their clients. But it’s not true. Especailly if you ask clients real opinions about the majority. Thankfully we’re not in the majority. We can do something about it. In this episode I share three common barriers to growth and strategies to help you deal with them, today.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 2828. Firing Clients

Firing clients is something we’ve all imagined. Strangely many choose to put up the disfunctional relationships they find themselves in. Scared to push back. Worried about losing a customer. But if they’re a drain of time, energy and resource and aren’t creating profit in enough abundance they’re a liability. I’m sharing a few stories and tactics that can help you devleop a better strategy to grow a portfolio of good customers - who value you and are profitable. As a recruitment professional you’ll enoucnter clients who treat you like ‘another supplier’. They’ll do this for as long as you’re willing to accept it. Because when you reset the agenda they have a choice. Go back to the old supplier who let them down or change their behaviour to continue enjoying the experience of working with you.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 2727. Being In Command Of Your Process

The big myth in recruitment is the importance of control. Or more accurately, the poor advice as to who should be in control. When you attempt to exercise control over another, it leads to manipulation. And feeling manipulated is not pleasant. It leads to candidates ghosting you and clients following their own path, rather than your advice. Making placements is critical - it takes something more sophisticated that being in control. You need to be in command. This episode explores what this really means and how you can elevate your status with higher levels of command.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 2323. The Holy Trinity of Business Development and Sales

Most in recruitment understand the importance of finding the pain - unearthing the problem in their sales process. The clearer we are on the problem, the easier it is to showcase the value of the solution we provide.Unfortunately most clients don't recognise their problems. Because, just like us, they only know what they know.To increase your success at selling in recruitment the more familiar you are with the relationship between the holy trinity of success - problems, symptoms and implications the easier you'll find it to engage fully with your prospects.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 2020. The Elephant in the Room

The elephant in the (meeting) room for recruiters is the simplicity of what they do. When you meet a prospect who boldly claims that “all agencies are…” or “other agencies are willing to do it for less” that there is little to no discussion about what “it” actually is. Whatever you recruit – CEOs on million dollar base or legions of temps to work in factories on minimum wage, you’ve got to know your it. And be able to explain it to someone who thinks they know what it is to help them realise – you only know what you know.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 1919. Getting the most from training

Training is in high demand in recruitment currently with businesses seeking to upskill their consultants. Much of the focus of this training is sales and BD orientated.

Ep 1818. The Dreaded KPIs

Everyone who works in recruitment has an opinion about KPIs. It seems (from the stream on Linkedin) to be a polarising topic. My call on it? A business without KPIs is going to be weaker for it. And just because you’ve worked for a recruitment agency that beasted you with them it doesn’t make them broken. It only means the beasting was. A KPI is a thing of beauty when it can guide you to high levels of performance. And who doesn’t want that? And real KPIs can even help you to make more money by doing less work… beast me that all day please.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 1515. Building Recruitment Campaigns

When you work in recruitment, life can feel like a series of jobs that get worked. Some you fill, some you don’t. To increase the number of jobs you successfully fill it helps to see the process as a campaign. To run it as a project. It’s not a vacancy your working on (too transactional) it’s a campaign to deliver the hiring messages to the right people. And some of those people are easier to get hold of than others. The more you map your campaign to successful hire (hint – the 4D Recruitment Method Sprints will really help with this) the higher the probability you win retained business and you deliver an experience that wows your customer.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 1414. Positioning Yourself To Win More Business

Positioning helps others to understand your offering and how you can add value to their business. Many of the prospects (and clients) you encounter will have an assumption as to how you work and what you do based upon interactions working with your competitors. That gives them fluency with your competitors, not you. Recruitment agencies still compete with each other on how quickly they can find people or how many CVs they can find because “they’re a specialist”. That’s not the driver for change in this market. Join me in this episode as I share ideas to help you position your recruitment business as suitably different. To win higher quality projects and work.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

There’s plenty of advice in the world about sales and marketing. What you want to pay attention to is your delivery and onboarding. This is the experience your customer will remember. How you onboard clients, qualify their requirements and get to the heart of what they want (rather than their assessment of what they need) will separate you from the competition.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 1212. The Secret to Recruitment

Recruitment agencies across the globe are seeking the secret sauce to stand out from their competitors. When clients are hiring, most agencies focus on the “finding” of talent. The race to get product (CVs) to the client and to begin the process – to get candidates into interview or started in a contract.And in those agencies the emphasis is on qualifying candidates – qualifying their interest in the job, the steps they’ve taken to find work and their skillset. The differentiator is when you interview your candidates and protect your client from hiring the wrong people who look good on paper. Few of your clients know how to interview.

Ep 1111. You Are Not Your Competitors

As obvious as the title is, not everyone recognises this to be their truth. And when your customers (or prospects) treat you like your competitors it becomes more difficult to stand out. Being different is hard (apparently). Most recruitment agencies take the other path and attempt to stand out by being better. When your marketing and sales message revolve around being better then price becomes a bigger differentiator for clients.When you behave differently. Talk differently and take a different perspective on prospects assumptions about who you are and what you do, you win better business. Because by design, you’re different. And that’s what sits at the core of The 4D Recruitment Method.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 1010. Recruitment Mindset of the Top 10%

How we frame in our mind what we do, how we do it and why we choose to do it for our customers is the start of our sales process. If we can’t formulate a coherent presentation to back up “This is how I work” we’re in danger of making assumptions. Assumptions that prospect already knows, that their experience with other recruiters makes them savvy to what recruiters do, or the assumption that I adopt that all agencies are the same. You. Are. Better. Than. That.In this episode I’ll share my journey to work out what made me different as a recruiter and how you can do the same in your own business. Create yourself a blue ocean rather than swimming in a red one.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Review and self-reflection are an important part of growing your business. Taking time out of the day to day to look at what has been happening in your business.If we’re not careful, thoughts can often turn to looking at what hasn’t happened, what isn’t working. What about the stuff that is working well?You’ve got to where you are by being able to do something with consistency, right?I know from personal experience that it’s almost always easier to play to a strength rather than fix a weakness.

Ep 88. How to Become World Class

How do you know how good you are at your job?What is your benchmark to create a definition of good?You know what you know. Only with deeper thought do you become aware of what you know you don’t know. And this reflection time is often missing.Take something as simple, yet as sophisticated as job qualification. Or as I prefer to call it – briefing and on-boarding. Few consultants would consider themselves to be below average. And the Dunning Kruger effect is the classic model that shows how we all can over-inflate our perception of capability. Especially if it is low.So, join Jeremy Snell on this episode as we test your self-perception and consider how good you are at your job.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rookie2Recruiter.com - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.

Ep 77. Mistakes of the Experienced Recruiter
