What I told the African headhunters!

I just got back from a speaking tour in South Africa. We spoke to 800 recruiters over six events in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

‘Exclusive’ candidates will double your billings

Not long ago I wrote how ‘unique candidates’ are the future of successful recruiting. Indeed, recruiters talk a great deal about securing exclusive job orders (although few recruiters actually know how!) while we should really put equal focus on negotiating exclusivity with highly specialised, in-demand candidates.

Today’s recruiter is never ‘done‘. You are never ‘trained’, ‘expert’, or ‘finished with learning’. It’s constant renewal, up-skilling and starting again. That is your challenge from today on. I like the concept of ‘living on the edge’ because it suggests being alert, being dexterous, being nimble. I encourage you to adopt as your mantra, from […]
