Do You Really Need a Recruiting Agency? Signs You May Not

You’re an experienced manager or business owner and you trust your gut, plus the market is soft… What are some signs that you should you not partner with a recruiter?

  1. You like kissing a lot of frogs to get to your prince/princess charming.
  2. You enjoy a business philosophy that includes the term ‘post and pray’.
  3. You hate performance guarantees of any kind.
  4. You like to use your gut as your primary decision making tool.
  5.  You are only interested in the candidates that apply to your job, not the other 90% in the market

If these factors line up with your chosen business practices then you probably don’t want to partner with a recruitment agency. However, if you do fall into the other side of the equation, why haven’t you chosen a recruitment agency to partner with yet?
