A Consultant's Role
Our consultants are there to help clients and candidates make the recruitment and career choices that will serve them best.
In dealing with candidates, you'll be meeting every day with experienced professionals in your specialist market. Each will have a different resume, attitude to work, and motivation to change jobs. Your role is to allow them to make informed decisions through your knowledge of the market.
Good consultants can provide valuable insight into different companies, their particular cultures, the histories, and personalities that make up the teams. The best consultants will be able to use this information to evaluate the impact each role is likely to have on the candidate's career.
Consultants make their own reputations. Acquiring the necessary skills, networks and relationships take significant time, effort, and long-term commitment.
Our Training
Our consultants join us from varying backgrounds. Our initial training program introduces key recruitment concepts and what candidates and clients expect from you, before moving into core sales and interview techniques.
Next, you'll join one of the teams to start developing your own vertical market. At first, your manager will work closely with you, guiding you through each stage of the recruitment process until you both feel you are ready to handle it alone.
As you progress, your manager and other senior recruiters will coach you through new scenarios, developing your abilities and confidence to take on more senior roles. You'll get feedback on how you're doing through formal appraisals and weekly meetings, but most importantly on a daily basis as you work on projects within your team.
Career Opportunity
Mastering the role of a consultant is the first necessary step in building your career with us. A clear path leads to senior consultant, with mentoring and coaching responsibilities for the team. From there, you can move into a managerial position and build your own team.
