Grow With The Flow

In the 17th episode of the Grow with the Flow podcast, we sit down with Brad Wolff, founder of The Recruiter's Coach.

In this episode, we sat down with Jordie Kern, the Founder of 7 Eagle Group - a leading recruiting firm that specializes in connecting American Military Veterans with lucrative and rewarding career opportunities. Jordie shared his insights on the power of content in attracting top candidates to the recruiting funnel, and importance of being ambitious and taking risks scaling a recruiting business.  

Having top billers on your team, best-in-class tools, and a goldmine of clients definitely contribute to the perfect recipe for a fast-growing recruiting agency. But, what really powers all of it is sustainable systems and playbooks that hold everything together in the long haul.   In this episode of Grow with the flow, a Recruiterflow podcast, we chat with Ken Eslick, the Founder and CEO of The Leaders LAB, a New-York based executive search firm. Ken shares his experience and thoughts about growing a recruiting agency and creating an environment where your team actually thrives.
