Great recruiters don’t use these words

Your words reveal your mindset. And your mindset dictates your actions. And your actions—or lack thereof—will dictate your results and reputation. Here are three phrases that signal a recruiter is veering off track. Or perhaps has never been on track. They are casual comments. Throw-away lines. However, they reveal flawed belief systems. In my experience, they are signs that a recruiter is missing great opportunities. If so, banish these words and this thinking from your professional life.

Automation without accountability is a liability!

There is plenty of optimism about AI's positive impact on recruitment. They say AI will unlock productivity, free up recruiters' time, and drive profitability.

Recruiters, let’s go to McDonald’s!

Many say that AI will not replace human recruiters. And I believe that statement remains true, overall. But this is not true in every case. It is increasingly clear that AI is taking over some types of recruitment at specific levels. Let’s go to McDonald's, shall we? Not for the fries this time. For a lesson on using AI for hiring.
