What approach makes you think "recruiter"?

  1. Not knowing who/what they are looking for.
  2. Fishing for job descriptions, and job duties or responsibilities.
  3. Oozing friendliness.
  4. Glossing over details when questioned as to the nature of the call.
  5. Being either too pushy or ambiguous during the conversation.

Now you can do/be all of these things with a 2 hour webinar/phone conferencing session that allows you to "listen in" while I make phone calls to your chosen targets for your chosen titles.

Ensorceling Is The New Sourcing

en·sor·cell or en·sor·cel  To enchant; bewitch.

(Just about) everybody calls himself or herself a “sourcer” these days.

 

The title has lost its panache.
