  • DGR 118 The Modern Agency Recruiter Playbook

    This one is a good one. Instead of operating on dinosaur recruitment tactics, here are SIX tips on what MODERN agency recruiters are doing.

    Recruiting has changed a LOT even since when I started not so long ago in 2011. Now, it's EVEN more volatile, innovative, and ripe for disruption IF you know how to play the game.

    Recruiters fall into two camps: one who follows the traditional methods of recruiting like cold-calling and outreach versus those who add in marketing and utilizing the internet to sell for them.

    There is a balance of having BOTH - one hand washes the other and increases your market share.

    Today's modern agency recruiter abides by a different and 2.0 recruitment playbook. Listen to the whole ep to get all the ideas downloaded so you can leverage it to make yourself FAMOUS in your space!

  • DGR 117 How to Sell Well (for both salespeople AND recruiters)

    As a full-desk recruiter since day one on a brand new desk, I was cold calling clients and candidates to build my book from a standing start of zero.

    I had literally NOTHING to recruit for so I had to essentially bullsh*t my way into mattering within my market.

    I had to fight tooth and nail and learn this business ASAP or else I would fail and starve since I was on a godawful, low base lol.

    Here are the strategies I adopted that helped me crawl of nothingness into dominating and monopolizing my market, beating out my competition who had decades on me in terms of experience.

    USE these strategies to boost up your ability to get ahead to become a premium vendor and headhunting/staffing resource.

  • DGR 109 How to Deal with Counteroffers

    Counteroffers are not a new phenom.

    You can bet a company will find it cheaper, easier, and safer to throw money at existing staff rather than a new hire that they need to pay a headhunter for ANYWAYS.

    If you're mostly going after passive candidates, you better cover counters til you're blue in the face, at EVERY stage, not only during closing or offer time, bc by then, you will be much too late.

    Don't be the person who ends up being used and abused to boost up someone else's salary at your own detriment to your client and your own reputation on the street.

    Make sure everything you do is on a needed basis instead of begging for scraps and for others to indulge you, because they won't.

    You have to find opportunities WORTH taking and put all your efforts into those rather than try too hard to experiment or take your chances.
