You’ve read through your candidate’s application 16 times, obsessively refreshed their LinkedIn page, and even discovered their Facebook profile. Still, it feels like you know nothing about them. It’s not enough to see that they grew their sales team from 2 to 20 people; you want to hear about it. This is where the phone screen, often the first step of the interview process, comes in handy.

Recruitment is a lucrative, but hard-to-master industry. Despite the misconceptions, it’s not a job that ‘anyone can do’ You might not need specific formal qualifications, but you do need to be hard-working, patient, organised, focussed, driven and have excellent inter-personal skills… amongst many other attributes. But with so much competition and drive in one office, it can be easy to forget how tricky those first few months were.

Individual employees are also able to have a significant impact on how their employer is perceived, and this influence extends beyond social media.
