love your recruiter day in the uk
TRANSCRIPT
In a recent survey it was highlighted that 61% of hiring managers
believe that recruiters don’t really understand the jobs they’re
recruiting for.
We don’t believe that’s all there is to the recruiter/hiring manager
story so over the past 3 weeks, we reached out to numerous
hiring managers across the UK and asked what they thought of
the recruiters they worked with. We wanted to figure out how
hiring managers felt about the real people they partnered with vs.
the abstract “recruiters” they talk about in the surveys.
As you may guess, the results didn’t disappoint. We were
inundated with effusive messages of recognition, which showed
sincere appreciation and pride in working together.
To celebrate recruiters we held Love Your Recruiter Day on July
16th in the UK and here are the top 10 stories received about
recruiters! Read on to be inspired! #recruiterlove
James Price, rentalcars.com
“If James wants you in…he WILL
find you and he WILL recruit you. If
things are not as straightforward as
he would like, James enters what
can only be called an undercover
operation. He will stamp out the
competition, razzle dazzle you with
his master skills of persuasion and
make sure you really have no doubt
that you are making the right choice
– a rare skill in a situation of change,
uncertainty and career defining
decisions.”

Hannah Brown, British Transport Police
“Recruitment in IT is difficult and
boring but Hannah has been my
recruiter for the past year and has
been amazing! Hannah has definitely
made recruitment fun whilst working
hard to find the best possible
candidates. I am confident that when
I give Hannah a role fill, I don’t even
have to give her any more details,
she does all of the hard work so I
don’t have to. Hannah is an absolute
joy to be around and everyone in IT
loves her. Hannah, you are the best!”

Nicolas Lutter, Expedia
“Nicolas is a great recruiter and he is
really easy to work with — excellent
communication skills, very sociable
and funny! He can work on 40 to 50
positions at the time and he still has
time for meetings! You rock Nico!”

James Scottwood, Hiscox Insurance
“James recruited nearly 150
customer-obsessed superstars with
minimal agency support by
developing an “Awesome” campaign
where cards were handed out to
anyone in the local area who
delivered outstanding service.
Brilliant campaign, brilliant results,
brilliant recruits.”

Hazel Shaw, Oasis Fashion
“We love Hazel. She’s always so
helpful and keen to support the
teams fill their vacancies. She’s
eager to try new and exciting
methods to source candidates and
has built some really great
relationships with various
educational establishments over the
last 12 months. The caliber of the
candidates she sources are great
and perfect for our brand.”

Casey Amend, Fisher Investments
‘She was exceptional when she hired
me. I was looking for a company in
which I could use my skills and have
a long term vision, and Casey really
made me want to work for the
company I now work for. She is
passionate and driven. She highly
deserves to be rewarded for such a
fabulous personality.’

Charlotte Bridgeman, Betfair
‘She has systematically transformed the
way we work in recruitment. Removing
the obstacles and making the process
much more focused on what we need as
a business. She is very engaging and has
improved our time to hire dramatically.
She has been able to bridge the gap
between technology and talent acquisition
in a matter of weeks. Charlotte is a real
character and quite mad, but then again
we all are at Betfair!’

Patricia Hiley, Premier Farnell
She if amazing from every point of view:
from how personable and friendly she is
all the way to her knowledge, expertise
and skills. While I was going through the
assessment, Trisha made me feel
comfortable, valued and I feel we made
a very strong connection which makes
that session stand out from all the
previous ones and think of that day very
fondly. Here I am three years later
working for the same organisation with
no intention or even a thought to leave it
and remain very grateful for that day, for
this job and for all the wonderful people I
met since then. All because of the
chance given by Trisha!’
Kristy Nickels, Christie’s Care
‘What makes her remarkable and a
valued member of our team is her
warmth, empathy, and ability to find
great carers and support them as they
undertake their induction training and
find their feet within the company.
Kristy's helpful manner and dedication to
her job, and our company, means that
she often goes above and beyond the
normal confines of recruitment to
support the carers and ensure a smooth
transition into our business.’
The team even highlighted her on their
