Greg was ripping into a Discussion I had proposed with the
above comment. Charming Australian directness I thought but in fact it struck
me as very apt in another way: Lots of recruitment is dressed up to impress but
ultimately some deliver less than they promise.
I’ll add the normal caveat and say there are many
exceptional recruiters who do deliver what they promise but there are probably as
many who do not.
So why is the word “promise” used in the above description?
Well it’s because recruitment is a process with uncertain
outcomes. If you pay an Assassin to kill someone he might get hit by a bus
before completing the mission! He might shoot the wrong person…it happens. There
are no guarantees.
If however you pay the person who brings you the head of the
intended target, there is no uncertainty. This is the basis of our proposition
at Vacancy-Clearing.
So next time you listen to a “promise” ask yourself the
question… why?
