Yes, that?s right, it is all about the ?O?!

 

Opportunity, that is.  (Probably not what made you click on this link)

 

As a recruiter, it is extremely important to cease upon opportunity when it presents itself.  These include:

 

Doing a great job in qualifying the open positions you have in front of you.  Which hiring managers are eager to hire, are providing you with prompt feedback, and are being constructive in moving the search forward.  Working with these hiring managers creates an Opportunity!

 

Doing a great job in qualifying the sourced candidates for your open positions.  Which candidates are responding to you in a timely manner, are motivated for a new opportunity for the right reasons, and are actively researching their potentially new company and possible relocation.  Working with these candidates creates an Opportunity!

 

Doing a great job selling your candidates to your hiring manager.  Many times qualified candidates are initially rejected by hiring managers because they have spent only a short time reviewing this resume, while you may have had a 30 minute conversation qualifying this candidate.  If you believe strongly that a candidate is right for the job, it is imperative that you go back to the hiring manager with a well thought-out, concise case as to why this candidate should be interviewed.  Selling your best candidates creates an Opportunity!
 
Whether you are corporate or third party recruiter, it is essential to create and capitalize on every Opportunity.
