This week in the recruitment journal, I thought I’d write something about a key part of recruitment, in the form of a short poem.  If you are a Recruitment Consultant, Resourcer or Team Manager reading this, I hope some of this rings true.  Throughout my short time in recruitment, and even during the ERF Recruitment qualification, it has been said ‘communication skills are the bedrock of a successful desk’ These skills need to be honed and used to nurture and strengthen relationships with clients and candidates. A poorly written email, a freudian slip on the phone, or a weak handshake at a site visit could plant a seed of doubt.  A no-show, a delayed offer to a candidate or an omittance of on-site parking from the contract could spell disaster. It’s a goddamn tightrope.  Instead of this tightrope, however, it seems more appropriate to use a bridge to demonstrate the delicacy of this Recruiter - Client - Candidate relationship.  A bridge is the place, with its grand scale and grace, where our relationship building is set  From one side to the other, with an engineer or a plumber, we ensure our clients needs are met Daunting tasks…

Hello and welcome to Primtac Personnel’s recruitment Blog. It’s hard to make an introductory line interesting. My name is Conor and I am a recruitment consultant focusing on permanent placements in the Engineering Sector.  I have been tasked with jotting down some noteworthy pieces on the Recruitment Profession.  There is plenty to talk about, and while a lot of the content will be research based and relevant to the job, industry and the recruitment process in general, I want to have some fun with it.  If this miraculously takes off and there is interest in the content, feel free to send on some suggestions for articles or research. With agencies around the world, the ERF here in Ireland, as well as podcasts and youtube clips, people can get a fairly in-depth understanding iof recruitment with a few clicks of the mouse.  A lot of it seems to be fairly formal though. I often find myself holding back a yawn, or reverting to looking at Wordle practice to hone my skills and show everyone in the office how extensive my vocabulary is.  For anyone involved in the industry, I would like this read to be something a little…
