It's a fascinating question actually, and it's going to require, I think, a complete mindset shift from recruiters on the talent and candidate side, of course, but on the client side, and actually, in All The Many Years that I've been in this business- lots of recessions- I don't think I've ever seen a time where there's a better chance to change the relationship we have with clients.
What does it take to excel in the recruitment industry in a post-COVID world? Greg Savage, a renowned leader in recruitment, joins host Lysha Holmes on 'The Recruiter's Recruitment Podcast' to share his insights. With the job market undergoing significant changes, recruiters face new challenges and opportunities. Greg, who is not only an advisor and public speaker but also sits on the board of 14 recruitment businesses, dives into what recruiters need to do to thrive today.
One of the key points Greg discusses is the shift in candidate mindset since the pandemic. Candidates are now prioritizing flexibility and work-life balance more than ever. Recruiters need to spend more time understanding what candidates want and building genuine relationships with them. This means engaging with passive candidates and ensuring they feel valued and understood. Greg also emphasizes the importance of marketing in recruitment.
It's not just about posting jobs; it's about creating valuable content that attracts potential candidates and clients alike. Platforms like LinkedIn should be used not only for job postings but for sharing original ideas and insights that can drive inbound business. Technology is another critical area Greg touches on. Recruiters should leverage technology to automate routine tasks, freeing up time for more strategic activities like consulting and relationship-building. Financial management and creating a positive company culture are also crucial.
Recruiters need to understand their finances deeply and create a work environment that fosters community and learning. Effective communication with clients is the final piece of the puzzle. Recruiters must manage client expectations and bring them to the hiring table with confidence. The episode is packed with actionable advice for anyone in the recruitment industry looking to navigate these challenging times successfully. Tune in to hear Greg's expert tips and learn how you can apply them to your own career.
