Being a recruiter involves being able to attract, engage, source, sell, retain, market, and effectively use tech. Hence the skillset of a modern recruiter is pretty vast. But what runs through the heart of a great recruiter is the ability to sell.
But "sales" is often seen as either a dirty word, or a skill reserved for purely business developers. Whereas every recruitment leader knows that sales is what drives recruitment. Whether you need to sell a candidate to a client, a job to a candidate, a process to a colleague, or get buy-in from stakeholders, everyone in recruitment needs to be good at "selling".

Rossa Mullally and I spoke about:
How can recruiters use social engineering in recruitment and sales?
How can they avoid "unintentional repulsion"?
What's a great message which drives a great sale?
Where does tech "fit" in the sales process?
