As recruitment becomes ever more important to a business trying to achieve its corporate objectives, professional recruiters and staffers must raise their game, delivering new and innovative solutions.
This second edition addresses the many changes that have happened in the field of recruitment over the last five years including the growth of internal recruitment expertise within organizations, the rise of Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and Managed Service Provider (MSP) business models and social networking. Brown and Swain explore the techniques used by the most successful recruiters, both agency and client side, to understand what creates excellence in recruitment. They provide the advice that professional recruiters need on client acquisition, client strategy and candidate management.
Aimed at both potential and existing recruiters, The Professional Recruiter's Handbook is supported by numerous updated and enhanced case studies and interviews with recruitment professionals. It contains practical advice on attracting the right candidates, finding and retaining new clients and explains how to develop a recruitment strategy to ensure professional recruiters and staffers can successfully fill the roles they take on.
Review
"The search for talent is increasingly conducted on a global scale. The economic downturn has made the war for talent more competitive than ever before. And social media has emerged as a valuable new engagement tool. So Brown and Swain recently revised their handbook and released the second edition, fully updated to provide today's recruiters with all the information they need to navigate the waters of the talent pool. …With diagrams, flow charts, and scannable bullets, the authors have created a handy reference for on-the-job use. This might be just what recruiters need to adapt to the new pace of recruiting and the increasingly competitive hiring environment to make sure their company or clients come out on top in the war for talent." --The Seamless Workforce
Praise for the previous edition:
"Finally: the ultimate 'go to' guide for recruiters." --Recruiter
"I can think of very few people better qualified to write about the recruitment industry." --Russell Clements, CEO, SThree
