Recruiters generally place high emphasis on learning and development for the candidates. But they often forget that they too need to get trained to perform at their best.
Recruiters with unpolished recruiting skills may cause massive inefficiencies for corporations and loss of placement fees for themselves. They may lose many great candidates and waste precious time screening bad candidates out, time that could have been used to screen great candidates in. While unskilled recruiters do not stay in a recruiting agency, where they must rely on commission per hire, but seem to do well in companies in which their performance is seldom monitored.
There are some great tools that can increase chances of finding and hiring a good candidate. However, no number of tools can replace the success of a skilled recruiter in convincing and motivating the right candidate.
As a recruiter, you never stop learning. You need to stay up to date to utilize the best tools for screening, sourcing, and placing candidates. It is important to learn more to stay relevant in this competitive market that is agency recruitment.
You should not miss out on any opportunity to get a good learning experience. We all spend time reading something or the other, such as books, magazines, news, articles or just-for-fun memes. Reading content that you can actually learn from and implement in your life is important.
As a recruiter, you experience informal recruitment training every day of every week, every year. But, you should consider a formal recruitment training course too. It will help you learn tips and tricks from professionals in the form of webinars and structured training classes.
A lot of recruitment training courses are available, but there is no one magical course that fits all. You should select your course according to your level and existing knowledge.
A training program delivered by accomplished present-time recruiters will give you exposure to their knowledge and experience in today’s recruitment industry.
Those who have been in this industry for a while, remember how different the recruitment processes used to be before social media. And now that online recruitment has become the new normal, we are once again witnessing a change in the industry, though not to the same extent.
Who should think about Recruitment Training?
This isn’t just for new recruiters, experienced recruiters too should take recruitment training seriously; this applies to all recruiters, not only those who are into sector specific recruitment.
Industry trends are always changing. Tools and techniques are always upgrading. Job opportunities, as well as, job culture are always advancing.
You should not use the same approach when hiring millennials and baby boomers. You need to know what the candidate wants, in order to make good decisions. This way you’ll be satisfying both the client and the candidate. A good training course will help you understand how to work with candidates of all ages.
For a recruiter, the training course should not be all theory. You should be able to apply your learning and practice it to see a satisfactory change in your work.
An activity-based training with such tasks as role-play activity based on a case study would help you to see the improvement soon.
A certification course that provides you with some good quality reading material as well as a live Q/A session helps you upgrade your qualifications and keep up with the industry professionals. There’s a course for you whether you are searching for entry level, advanced level, or sector specific recruiter training.
