Wordsmiths and Lemons

Executive recruitment, in a way, is like searching for a gemstone in a bag of beans.

You started hunting for a new sales executive, looking for a playwright of future success. In the evening, as you sip your mead by candlelight, you begin to think that Shakespeare has left the building or indeed the globe. You have interviewed several candidates for the bountiful role you have tucked in your top pocket, but everyone is lacking.

You were hoping for a writer, a linguist, a storyteller. But oh my, all you managed to find were five candidates who talked and rattled on but never listened, and two old hounds who had years of experience but were too set in their ways to take on new skills.

Your client is a forward-thinking company that likes to take the scribbles of curiosity in a mind map session and set the wheels in motion. They have come to you because they are looking for some reassurance that those shining ones are still out there somewhere.

And at the moment, you are finding that you have more chances of recruiting for the role of Mavis in Coronation Street in days gone by than finding a diamond amongst the dust.

So, what now Sonya, I hear you ask. What’s it all about Alfie?

Well, Alfie gave up a long time ago and that was indeed the downfall of Alfie’s career.

Finding the right candidates for your company can be a very stressful experience. You can find yourself registered with many recruitment companies. The larger the organization, the thinner the spread and attention to detail. But that is where a boutique offering such as The Sales Recruitment Network comes in. When you have a passion for your niche, your basket of goodies is indeed full of a vast variety of candidates.

When we recruit within the sales area, we are looking for a prosateur, a wordmonger and someone who has not just the I.T ability to keep records and create reports, we are looking to appoint a fabulist, a belle-lettrist, that can create future success.

And as for lemons, well they are abrasive little fellows. They have their benefits and can indeed balance a glass of sweet Pimm’s. But recruiting lemons is an expensive mistake.

If you are looking for a fresh new thing, you might like to consider giving The Sales Recruitment network a call!

If it is not the penguins, it’s the armadillos, but then again you do have the moose to contend with!

Yes, if it is not one thing it is another. The world of recruitment never runs smoothly. Do you aim for a working day that runs like an efficient machine, like a finely made brass wheel, perfect in its, erm, roundness? In this tale of recruitment woe, we see how working with a company that fits you snuggly, can make all the difference. Penguins! The trouble with penguins is they are hard to find and tend to congregate where fish stock resides. Therefore, far-flung places next to the sea. So, you gather your belongings and pack your rucksack, and off you go. Your new electric car means it will take you a bit longer, but hey ho, you like a sixty-hour working week and traveling to the far reaches of the country to see rare species. Armadillos You arrive and undo your padded ski jacket and take off your two fleeces, two silk vests to reveal your shirt and tie. You leave your Salopettes on just for good measure. You are met in the reception area with a smile and a cuppa by Agnes the tea lad

Recruitment: The Penny in Your Pocket !

When we recruit, we are enrolling, enlisting that new person needed to fit into the culture of the workplace. You may just want someone who gets it done, does the job, and keeps things ship shape or you may want that certain someone who makes the difference as well. Brings a certain something to the team that was lacking. Once upon a time in a marketing office, there stood a marketing manager . Jasmine had just finished collecting stats for a report and updating the company website. She felt flat, yes as flat as a pancake without any sugar or lemon. She wondered how the rest of the week would turn out. Or would it just be a flop? Jasmine walked over to the window and slowly pulled the glossed sash upwards. The smell of fresh air was divine as it filtered up her nose, then down her throat, to her lungs. She looked over to the coffee shop down the road. And decided it was time for hot chocolate! But what was this, she had left her purse at home. Feeling disappointed she turned round to f
