I’ve known Mike Walmsley for years and recently he’s been talking to me about his new venue; FutureRecruiters.com
FutureRecruiters is a unique online recruitment company, unique for one reason – it requires all its trainee recruiter candidates to go through rigorous stages of recruitment training and psychometric testing before they are introduced to recruitment businesses. To my knowledge, FutureRecruiters is the only recruitment company with this approach in the UK, plus you can advertise entry level recruiter roles free of charge on the site. So if you are looking for a new consultant check out their website.
Linked with RecruitmentTraining.com, one of the world’s leading recruitment training companies, FutureRecruiters offers candidates various recruitment training videos, during their free registration.
These videos give top advice from industry experts on sales techniques, candidate sourcing strategies and how to win business – key skills that will be necessary when they start their recruitment career.
Not only do the candidates undertake high quality recruitment training, but they also have to complete a recruitment-specific psychometric test. This enables potential employers to see far more information about their aptitude and personality than can be gleaned from the traditional CV.
So not only have these budding recruiters been given training to make the first step into recruitment that much easier, but they have also been tested to find out who has what it takes to be a recruiter.
If I had one suggestion to improve FutureRecruiters it would be to provide experienced recruiters of all levels not just entry level roles. Mike had this to say when I put the question to him…..
“I’ve sold my training videos to over 500 companies in the UK alone and I would never want to become a poacher turned gatekeeper! Aside from the ethics however, I’ve trained hundreds of rookies over the years many of whom have quickly outperformed their more experienced colleagues. High calibre trainee candidates don’t have preconceptions and provided they’re trained in the best techniques they can, and should, quickly contribute to the bottom line. So we at FutureRecruiters.com focus our efforts on the next generation of recruiters, the Future of Recruiters…”
Is this the future of recruitment, what do you think?
