What works for Australian Business
To most job seekers the world over, recruitment agents are seen as an inconvenient, often aloof "gatekeeper" that must be passed in order to get to the role they want.
Australia is no exception. In fact, you’ll probably find you feel even less valued by a recruiter in Australia than in many other countries around the world. Here the clients (i.e. the companies you want to work for) really are the undisputed kings of recruiter country. If you’re not exactly right for a role their clients have on the table at the time they meet you, the lack of attention from your recruiter may leave you feeling pretty unloved.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. By understanding what the Australian recruiter needs and, more importantly, wants from you, you can ensure that things go as much your way as possible.
"Engaging recruiters in Australia” helps you do just that. By putting you in their shoes, recruitment veteran Jill Noble gives you the inside story on the industry and ensures you appreciate the priorities, processes and preferences that make your recruiter tick.
