MATT CAMERON OF OCEAN PARTNERSHIP SAYS BEING A PERFORMER CAN GIVE YOU THE EDGE IN TALENT AND RECRUITMENT AS HE LAUNCHES THE R FACTOR WITH RECRUITER
Monday 2 November 2015

“It might not be apparent at first sight, but the synergies between the performing arts and recruitment are huge. However, there are a lot of talented people out there so, aside from having the requisite natural talent, in order to succeed in both you need to be confident, resilient, dedicated, organised and, above all, authentic.

I practically grew up on the stage and am convinced that the experience has made me a better recruiter. I’m delighted that [editor] DeeDee [Doke] and the team at Recruiter have approached me regarding the R Factor and look forward to practicing what I preach and seeing you there when I perform live during the first Recruiter Show in November.”

If you or any of your recruitment colleagues have a particular talent that deserves to be seen and appreciated by a wider audience, then have a go at the R Factor! Find out more here.

ADAM NICOLL, HEAD OF MARKETING AT THE FIVETEN GROUP, DECLARES THAT BRAND IS EVERYTHING
Tuesday 27 October 2015

“Despite the fact that recruitment is, more often than not, a hugely entrepreneurial industry it’s been slow to ‘get it’ when it comes to marketing. That’s changing fast right now and recruitment businesses have to grasp the fact that in this industry their brand is often their sole differentiator. It’s the companies that can effectively market the ‘difference that makes a difference’ that will succeed in this exciting new digital era.

“The Recruiter Show looks set to deliver, for the first time, a fantastic opportunity for industry leaders to truly engage with each other and explore the genuine issues of the day. I’m thrilled and honoured to have been invited to participate and am really looking forward to discussing my thoughts around brand and how forward-looking recruitment organisations can build exceptional marketing teams.”

LEE MCQUEEN, RICKY MARTIN AND JANE VINCENT JOIN FORCES TO TALK ABOUT THE RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT OF THE FUTURE
Wednesday 21 October 2015

Following their illustrious appearances on various TV shows they may well be three of our industry’s most recognisable faces. And now they will be sharing the platform as panellists in a much anticipated debate at the upcoming Recruiter Show.

“Today’s recruitment consultant is a very different animal from that of just a decade ago – and who knows what they will look like in another ten years” says Ricky Martin from Hyper Recruitment Solutions. “But I do know that it’s already all about those personal relationships, getting the balance right between traditional and ‘cyber’ recruitment methodologies and not about hiding behind technology.”

It’s pretty certain they will disagree about much during the debate but, on this issue, Lee McQueen, founder of Raw Talent Academy, and Ricky concur. “I’m thrilled to have been invited to join the panel at the Recruiter Show,” said Lee “and, more specifically, have the opportunity to bang on about a subject I’m mildly obsessed with; the recruitment consultant of the future. And it’s not complicated; it’s about effective communications and sector knowledge.”

Don’t miss the opportunity to hear much more on the subject from Ricky, Lee and fellow panellist, Jane Vincent from Candelisa People, at the Recruiter Show on 18th November.

CATH POSSAMAI, CAPITA’S DIRECTOR OF TALENT & RESOURCING, TALKS ABOUT A FRESH APPROACH TO TALENT
Wednesday 14 October 2015

“The Recruiter Show presents us with a fantastic opportunity to play nicely together. The relationship between in-house and external recruiters has traditionally been one of mutual suspicion but it is a symbiosis – we need each other, we need constructive partnerships and we need to share and benefit from each other’s experiences. That is what I’m looking to see at the Recruiter Show.

“In addition, I’m delighted to have been given the opportunity to talk about how one organisation, Capita, is genuinely addressing the ‘talent issue’ by truly putting it at the centre of the business. We recently took the bold step of establishing my role of director of talent, sitting alongside rather than within HR, and reporting directly to the Board. I’m going to be discussing the rationale for this move, the key considerations and challenges involved in establishing the role and the journey to date.”

GAVIN JONES, FOUNDER AND MANAGING DIRECTOR AT ENERGIZE RECRUITMENT SOLUTIONS, BELIEVES THAT IF YOU FOCUS ON SERVICE THEN SALES WILL FOLLOW
Thursday 07 October 2015

“I’m passionate about customer service and believe wholeheartedly that providing a great experience to clients and candidates is fundamental to recruitment success. There has been too little regulation or measurement around this issue in our industry and, as Recruiter magazine shares our enthusiasm for this subject, we were delighted to be invited to talk at the Recruiter Show about the benefits we’ve seen – specifically, the correlation between great service and high sales. Launching our customer-oriented strategy in 2014, year-on-year sales growth was 92%.

“Having implemented the Net Promoter Score system throughout our business, we now track the quality of customer service our consultants are delivering alongside renowned service leaders like retailers Amazon and John Lewis. In the age of candidate-driven markets, the insights provided by our customers is proving invaluable.

“It’s going to be a fantastic event and we’re looking forward to sharing this story with the industry.”
