There is something to be said for exclusivity, much like swans, finding a partner who is with you and you only makes for a strong union. Between the company, recruiter and candidates there are many interests that need to be served, throw in multiple recruiters and things can get messy.

Recruiters aren’t born…they’re raised. But where do they get their identity? Their work ethic? From management? HAHAHAHA MANAGEMENT HAHAHAHA. No. Recruiters aren’t the result of some sort of Jurassic Park-esque experiment splicing together “keyword searching”, KPIs and smooth talking. The answer is easy- Recruiters were taught everything they need to be successful from their mothers. Thinking about it over this past Mother’s Day, the lessons are obvious.

It’s one of those pages of a site – such as the terms and conditions, privacy policy or accessibility page – that might not exactly seem like a great frontier for brand-building.
However, that doesn’t mean it’s a part of your site that should be ignored. After all, it may well be one of your site’s most frequently visited pages, especially if you’re a prominent local employer or are presently undergoing strong growth.
