Recruitment consultant
Jun ‘22 - Now
Robert Walters

My main goal is to have the best candidate's and client's experience. My mission is to get the client's brief, and advise him to define the expected candidate's profile. Afterwards, I post the job add on the job boards, and start the direct sourcing. The candidate recruitment process will go through the following steps : - pre-qualification - interview with the consultant (me) - coaching of the candidate to meet the client - meetings with the client - coaching to finalize the recruitment process On the client's side, I advise him on the job market situation, the recruitment process, the final candidate choice, and financial offer to make (negotiations).
