Why
Recruiting?
By:
Christine Hirsch
|
|
For most
people, recruiting is rarely their first career choice.
Lately, I've had cause to wonder how and why I came
to choose the profession. Ten-to-twenty years ago,
many recruiters entered the field in a roundabout
way. Today, the profession is better established,
and recruiting is on the radar screen of many young
job seekers. While we've all come into the profession
at different times and on different roads, shared
is an appreciation of the challenge and excitement
of bringing skilled candidates together with employers.
As a
management trainee out of college, I dreaded my first
rotation in recruiting. Later, struggling to find
work in finance or marketing, I took a position as
a headhunter. Though initially skeptical, I soon began
to appreciate the position for the creativity, variety,
and overall savvy it demanded. Recruiting expanded
my skills in negotiations, requiring that I master
deal making and execute a complex two-way sale. Inevitable
misunderstandings and random occurrences further enhanced
the challenge for me. As my tenure in the profession
grew, I began to view each engagement as a new and
unique opportunity to expand my skills.
