Tell us about your journey as a recruiter
I started my career in accounting and later discovered my passion for recruitment while living in the UK. My enjoyment of engaging with people naturally drew me to this profession. Over the years, I have worked in both agency and internal settings within the technology industry, giving me a well-rounded view of the hiring process from different perspectives.
After being impacted by technology-related job cuts, I combined my expertise and business skills to start my recruitment firm. This venture allows me the flexibility to take care of my family. It provides an opportunity to build a business from the ground up and make a meaningful impact.
What changes do you see happening in the recruitment industry in the next 12 months?
The recruitment industry is on the cusp of exciting changes in the next 12 months, propelled by technological advancements and workforce shifts. AI will be a game-changer, enhancing the efficiency of the recruitment process by aiding in candidate screening and matching. The emergence of remote work and hybrid models will also shape hiring strategies, focusing on flexibility and work-life balance.
Furthermore, there will be a heightened focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives as organisations strive to foster more inclusive workplaces. The future of recruitment is a promising fusion of technology and human-centric practices, offering a more efficient and inclusive hiring process. However, it’s crucial to remember the value of human interaction and not rely solely on AI.
What's one piece of advice you'd give to employers?
One piece of advice to employers is prioritising the candidate’s experience in their recruitment process. Engaging with potential hires in a highly competitive job market can significantly impact your ability to attract top talent. This involves clear and timely communication, providing constructive feedback, and establishing a transparent and efficient hiring process.
Investing in a positive candidate experience enhances your employer brand and fosters trust and loyalty, leading to higher retention rates and a more motivated workforce. The time to prioritise candidate experience is not just now; it was yesterday.
