Best sectors?- UK

Looking for Insights on Recruitment in the UK

Hi everyone,

I’m transitioning from car sales to the recruitment industry and would love your advice.

Which sectors in the UK should I steer clear of, and which ones are currently thriving? I’m based in the Southwest, specifically Exeter.

Additionally, are there any red flags regarding commission structures that I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance for your help!

CV PDF Tracking/Analytics Software

CV PDF Tracking and Analytics Tools

I’m curious if anyone has experience using software that can send and track CVs and portfolios. Specifically, I’m looking for features that show if they’ve been opened, how long they were viewed, and if they were shared with others.

Understanding whether clients 1) open and 2) read entire CVs would be incredibly helpful. As I work in the healthcare sector, I encounter doctors with CVs that can exceed 20 pages. I’m wondering if a more concise format might lead to better engagement. Any insights or recommendations?

Life after recruitment?

Exploring Opportunities Beyond Recruitment

What are some promising career paths to consider after working in recruitment? I’ve spent three years in this field, achieving 500K in billings this year and even building a small team. I’m eager to learn about potential options and would love to hear any suggestions or experiences others might have to share!

Firms hiring in the NYC/CT Area?

Are there any firms hiring in the NYC/CT area?

I’m an experienced recruiter with three years of successful placements and recognition in the President’s Club each year. I’m looking for a retained firm that is specifically seeking someone focused on the candidate side of recruiting. While I’ve done 360 recruiting in the past, I prefer to concentrate on filling positions rather than sales. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!

CRM Recruitment Agency

CRM Recruitment Agency Update

We’ve been using JobAdder and it has generally served us well. However, we’re concerned about its limitations regarding user permissions as we continue to grow. We’re considering a switch to RecruitCRM. Has anyone had experience with them? Are there any important factors we should know before making the transition?

Closing as a Recruiter..

Struggling with Candidate Closures as a Recruiter

Hi everyone,

As a Tech Recruitment Lead, I’ve been facing challenges in closing candidates who have multiple offers on the table. Often, after receiving our offer, they mention they’re still waiting on responses from other companies, asking for additional time (like a week) to decide. I recognize this as a significant red flag, but despite my efforts, I’m finding it tough to navigate these situations, especially when it comes to competing offers.

I’d love to hear from you: what strategies do you use to successfully close candidates? How do you handle situations where they receive better offers elsewhere? Your insights would be greatly appreciated!

Considering going into recruitment

Considering a Career in Recruitment

Hey everyone! I’m contemplating a transition into the recruitment field and would love to hear some honest insights from those who are already in it.

Currently, I work shifts and weekends, so the prospect of a regular 9-5 schedule is quite appealing for achieving better structure and work-life balance. I believe I possess a range of transferable skills that could be beneficial in recruitment.

Here are a few things I’m curious about:
– How often do you find yourself bringing work home, or is it truly a 9-5 role?
– What can I realistically expect to earn in this field, beyond the enticing figures often highlighted in job postings?
– Do you enjoy your work? Is it stressful? Also, any recommendations for companies in the Northwest? I’m based in Warrington but can easily commute to Manchester or Liverpool.

I’m really just looking for candid feedback about the role without any sales pitch. Thanks in advance!

Fixed term contract in recruiting

Exploring Fixed-Term Contract Opportunities in Recruiting

I’m currently seeking new opportunities following the conclusion of my last contract role. The job market has been challenging, yet I’ve remained determined. I’ve noticed a growing trend in the availability of fixed-term contract positions, particularly with major companies like Meta.

Should candidates consider prioritizing these roles over full-time employment (FTE)? It’s worth noting that fixed-term contracts often come with higher pay and still offer FTE-like benefits. What are your thoughts?
