Why build a relationship with a recruiter?


Building a relationship with a recruiter can be a game-changer in your job search. Recruiters are not just about filling vacancies; they're about building relationships and matching the right candidate with the right role. They have a deep understanding of the job market, the needs of hiring organisations and the skills and experiences that make a candidate stand out.

 

The hidden job market: off-market roles


One of the significant advantages of working with a recruiter is gaining access to "off-market roles". These are positions that aren't advertised publicly and are often filled through networking and word of mouth. Senior recruitment consultants have an extensive network of contacts and are often the first to know about these exclusive opportunities.

 

Insight into the hiring organisation


Recruiters work closely with hiring organisations and have a unique insight into their culture, working conditions and expectations. This information can be invaluable in helping you understand whether a particular role or company is the right fit for you.


Negotiating salary, hours and conditions


Negotiating the terms of a new role can be challenging. Recruiters can assist with this process, advocating for you to ensure you receive a fair salary and favourable working conditions. Senior recruitment consultants understand market rates and industry standards and can provide guidance and support throughout the negotiation process.

 

Your personal cheerleader


Think of recruiters as your personal cheerleader. They want to see you succeed and will provide advice and guidance to help you do so. This can include tips on improving your resume, preparing for interviews and presenting yourself in the best possible light.

 

Experts in matching candidates


Recruiters are experts in matching candidates with the right teams, culture and more. They consider not just your skills and experiences, but also your personality, career goals and other factors that could influence your job satisfaction.
