What does a recruiter do?

You sit in the middle of both sides, think of it as being a corporate matchmaker. But realistically, where and how are you finding your candidates, and how are you winning new business and securing new clients? This is what makes recruitment a sales job

Business Development - Speaking to companies and winning roles

Process Management — Interviews, negotiation and closing offers

Why recruitment?

Progression: Performance-based, not time based

Exposure: Work with senior professionals early in your career

What makes someone successful?

You don't treat this as a 9–5

A sporting or competitive background (agencies love graduates who played sport at university level and/or sat on committees)

Resilient, there's a lot of rejection

Genuinely outgoing and energised by people

At its core, this is a sales role.
