So, you’ve been scrolling through job boards, putting your CV out there, and you receive a call from a recruiter hours later. You might think, what’s the point? I can find a job myself!
Before you hit ‘reject call’ here are three things our recruiters want YOU to know.
Not every job opportunity a consultant presents is appropriate for you, but that doesn’t mean the conversation has to end there! Maybe you have a friend or an old colleague searching for a new job; by connecting the two, you are helping the consultant and your friend too! In the current job climate, it’s always great to give a helping hand to those looking for work, who knows the favour may be returned in the future. Also, at Connectment we have a referral scheme in place! When you refer someone to our consultants and they are successfully placed with a client, we will pay you a fee. This way, everyone wins.
One of the biggest things recruiters value most is honesty; it makes the process much smoother and allows us to help you to the best of our ability. We’ve all been there, maybe after some consideration the job isn’t as well matched as you thought, or the location or salary just doesn’t suit. Instead of ghosting, let us know. It’s better to keep us updated so we don’t waste your time, the clients’ time or our time. At the end of the day, we can either look for a job more suitable or part ways for now!
At Connectment, our main goal is employee retention. We want to make sure that the candidates we place stay long term, which means we want you to be 100% happy! We take our time to walk you through our clients and get to know your requirements including career goals, travel limitations and salary. We’re proud to have a retention rate of 85%-90% and are always striving to improve.
