Here at Hamilton Professional, I recruit Recruitment Consultants and it never fails to astound me how many Recruitment companies simply mislead potential new Consultants.
You’d be surprised how many Recruitment Consultants I meet who tell me that they were oversold their current role during the interview process. Without doubt the biggest “oversell” is that it’s a “hot desk” or that it’s an “autonomous environment”. Some agencies will tell a Candidate what they think they want to hear so that they sign on the dotted line.
If you are interviewing for a Recruitment Consultant position, make sure you do your due diligence and ask the hard questions before accepting a job offer.
Alternatively you should speak to a respected Rec to Rec. Firstly, a good Rec to Rec will want to give you an accurate picture of the environment you’ll be entering. They will not want to do a replacement if you decide to leave during your probation period.
Secondly, we get told a lot of information about a lot of different Recruitment agencies. We can decipher fact from the fiction and then pass this valuable information on to you.
Make sure you do your homework and don’t always believe what you are told. Ask the hard questions before you accept a job offer.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
