Recruitment To Recruitment Companies What Value Can They Bring To Their Clients

Recruitment to recruitment companies are a vital part of the whole recruiter world.  They provide a much needed service to recruitment companies across the globe.

For someone reading this outside of the recruitment world or a budding trainee consultant this is how it works.

It is a well-known fact that companies that use recruiters to hire staff save money. This was flagged again in a recent article on inc.com and by a post on recruiting blogs by Amie Bennett. Did you know that the cost to replace an employee can be up to four times their annual salary? A recruiter’s fee then pales into insignificance.

The general process involves the decision that a position needs to be filled. The hiring manager or H.R. then decides to contact a recruitment agency. At this point there may be a number of recruitment companies in the frame who the job is given to. In reality if the recruiter has a good relationship with the hiring manager they normally get first option.

So what might the definition of a good relationship be? Well a proven track record of producing good candidates is normally at the top of the list. Now here is the thing. Really good recruiters make that look easy. Yet it isn’t! The skill of the recruiter is finding out exactly what the hiring managers wants.

Attached to this are the company culture and particularly the team in which the new hire is going to work. A professional recruiter will take an extensive brief and ask the questions others don’t ask. This then puts them in a strong position to be able to match the candidate with the role.

Logically the same will apply for a recruitment company looking to hire a new recruitment consultant for their team. The point to remember here is that recruiters that work at recruitment to recruitment companies understand exactly what is needed. After all the industry is very familiar to them.

Taking the same scenario again. A recruitment business owner may contact a number of Recruitment to recruitment companies. In exactly the same way they will choose one depending on the level of service and quality candidates that they have received before.

The value and money saved is just the same as in other markets. The reason that this process is so cost effective is that the rec to rec company will know a lot about the pool of talent out there on the market and importantly other undercover recruiters that people would love to have on their team.

The thing about recruitment to recruitment companies and their recruiters they are generally great networkers. Add to this that they have served their time in recruitment and you will understand why they have so many connections and seem to know everybody. For a recruitment company that is vital. Because they not only know the great recruiters they also know who the not so great ones are as well! You know the ones that talk the talk and then don’t deliver.
