Leave your old job behind & become a Recruiter!! Use your experience and talent and join a first-class operation within the worlds’ largest recruiting business, Management Recruiters International - The MRINetwork. The local MRINetwork Office in St. Louis, Westport One, is a Top Two-Percenter year after year with numerous awards won annually. Westport One continues to be on the move and is currently looking to add sharp individuals who want a real change from the day-to-day ho-hum job that they might be stuck in.
A Recruiting career offers Quality of Life. Minimal to zero travel, home nights and weekends, excellent compensation opportunity, and full benefits are just a part of the Quality of Life. A real plus about working at Westport One is its’ culture. Imagine working in an organization where micro-management is non-existent. Imagine the opportunity to use your entrepreneurial spirit every day. Imagine working in a 30 person office where everyone gets along, is team-oriented, and considers themselves part of the family! Imagine making decisions that affect peoples’ lives. It’s a pretty neat feeling to find someone a new career opportunity and to locate talent for organizations that can impact company success.
It’s not easy. Ask anyone who’s successfully doing it or anyone who has tried and failed. It’s difficult, it’s intensive, it’s challenging, and it’s demanding. And it’s sales! You sell your wares every day to both Candidates and Client Businesses. Your wares are a Service to both parties. You Must be Service-Minded and Career Motivated. Part-timers and workers looking to make an easy buck will not be successful in the Recruiting World. It’s telephone intensive. It’s constantly talking to people. Better have organization skills, communication skills, and a drive second to none. A successful Sales background is generally very positive. Maturity is Very Important and two to three jobs in the workforce is almost paramount. Competitors and athletes and those who like to win usually do well in this business. Self-motivation is mandatory. No hand-holding & no butt-kicking. You’ll get paid for what you do. If you’ve played Monopoly and just HAVE to possess Boardwalk & Park Place, then you need to email me.
Come Change your Career. If you’re good at it, you’ll never change back.
Do you have Insurance experience as a Commercial Lines Underwriter, Account Executive, etc? Tired of the same old thing?
Well if any of these apply to you, then you must read on.
The world of recruiting is unique from all other industries. It's challenging, rewarding, fun, and hard work. It's a career field that if you can get in, and you do well at, you'll probably never leave it. But make no mistake, it's harder than you might imagine. So let's examine what it's all about.
First, it's a telephone intensive business. Your primary objective is to talk to people; every day, all day, week in, week out. So for starters, you better be OK with the phone and talking to people! And oh yea, that's NEW people....people you don't know!!
Second, it's a Sales business. You sell yourself to companies to get their business, then you sell your opportunity to candidates. Some will listen to you and work with you, but many will not. You need to be OK with that. You must be OK with rejection. It's not personal, it's just business.
Next, it's a commission business. If that scares you, you better move on or give this some serious thought. Yes, there is a monthly guaranteed income, but the real dough comes from making placements; multiple placements on a repetitive basis. If you figure it out and can do the business, you'll make more than anyone you ever place. Average recruiters make between $70k and $100k annual. Good recruiters do better, and real good recruiters do better yet. There is little to no travel and there are benefits. Work hours are decent, but they are not shall we say, 'bankers hours'?
So what are we looking for and why?
The why part is simple. Our firm is growing! We are one of the very best recruiting firms in the nation and can easily prove it if you need. We have a staff size of 40 plus and plan to add ten recruiters this year in different industry specialties. The other reason we're expanding is because despite what many will tell you or what you might read....companies are hiring and are demanding our services.
As for the 'what are we looking for', here are the basics: Drive, Passion for Success, Communication Skills, Proven Track Record of Success, Intelligent, Common Sense, Work Ethic, Commitment. Possess these? Then seriously think about joining a first class operation and better yet, email us your resume or just call us.
Don't miss out on a career opportunity that will change your life!
