4 Reasons Why Passive Candidates Answer Recruiter Calls And Not Yours

1) We Know Our Candidates Intimately!

Any good niched Recruiter brings added value in that they know much more about their candidates than what’s on their resume. Being aware of vital information like compensation details, special family arrangements, details behind past career changes.

2) We Protect Their Confidentiality!

Passive candidates will return more calls from a strong Recruiter based on the fact that we are a third-party source independent and not employed by any one company.

3) We Know The Types of Roles They’re Open To Hearing About!

a) Top candidates in the market get five or more calls daily from companies and internal Recruiters trying to sell them opportunities.

b) A good Recruiter takes the opposite approach focusing on learning about a candidate’s background, career growth and interests to make sure that every call resonates and is relevant for their specific situation.

4) We Bring Them More Than A Job Description!

a) Candidates are always complaining to me that every in-house Recruiter and Hiring Manager approach them in the same fashion, matching their background to the jobs/duties on the job description.

b) The secret to getting more Passive callbacks is to share more of the pertinent “What’s In It For Me?” info with candidates.
