How to Unlock the Potential of Contract Recruitment With Roy Dungworth
Summary
The trend toward freelance and flexible working arrangements is gaining momentum, making contract recruitment increasingly relevant in the current employment landscape. Roy Dungworth notes that many agency owners are hesitant to hire contract recruiters due to concerns that they might not stay in a job long enough to build the necessary connections and market knowledge. He advocates for identifying raw, untrained contract recruiters who can be moulded without the burden of pre-existing habits, ultimately creating an unbeatable team. He calls it "hunting in packs" - a team of recruiters who have the same market knowledge, create talent pools and databases of clients and candidates, who all work together. If you see KPIs as something daunting, that you have to review at the end of the week and stress about when youve not hit your goals, they obviously wont serve their true purpose.
