The latest data on current economic growth is positive for recruitment professionals like

you and I in the UK; here is an interesting fact for you to share in your local pub quiz. Did

you know that the UK is second only to Japan when it comes to the number of recruitment

companies? I know that surprised me too. Here is something else that is significant. Pre the

downturn in 2008 the recruitment sector was the second fastest business growth area in the

UK; this had been maintained over an outstanding 15 years.

So what is the current state of the nation when it comes to recruitment in the United

Kingdom? Well the economy is improving and along with it the growth in our particular

business sector.

Some interesting statistics from the Institute of Recruiters states that,the recruitment

industry annual growth in the current financial year is expected to double the 3.6 per cent

growth enjoyed during 2011 and 2012.All good it seems for our industry? Maybe and maybe

not. The challenge is any industry needs to grow. For that to happen potential employees

need to be encouraged that choosing recruitment is a worthwhile career not just a job.

As a rec to rec company we are having conversations with recruitment consultants everyday

who do ‘get’ that recruitment can give you a rewarding career. Yet some of the recruiters we

speak to don’t appreciate the career path they can take and the huge opportunity they

potentially have laid out in front of them. It is not uncommon with; some guidance and

support, to start as a trainee consultant and rise through the ranks to director level within a

matter of a few short years.

Just last week I was talking to a consultant who had just hit £600k in billings for the first time

ever. Recruitment was proving to be a great career move for her. The even better news was

that this particular individual wanted to know what she needed to put in place to develop even

further.

If you are in it for the long haul and that would be my recommendation, then you need a plan

and a career path. As you grow and develop you are likely to outgrow your current company

unless you are lucky enough to join a larger organisation from day one; who can give you

ongoing development and importantly opportunities to be stretched in different parts of the

business.

The good news is our industry is taking this seriously so much so that the IOR –Institute of

Recruiters are mapping out a career path for ambitious recruiters and HR professionals.

This ranges from external courses and qualifications through to encouraging recruitment

consultants to invest in their own development by experiencing different roles within a

recruitment company.

What next? First of all decide what you want. Hint, aim high because anything is possible.

Let’s face it recruitment is a commercial environment where consultants are rewarded on

performance and skills; both of which are easy to develop with some application and a

positive attitude.
