You might think you do, but until you've read Lou Adler's book Hire With Your Head you will discover what you are missing, and how to fine tune your recruiting strategy.
I've been in recruiting for over 18 years now, and there are only one or two authors or speakers that still grab my attention, and Lou is one of them. In my opinion, nobody has organized the art of recruiting into such a mind grabbing yet practical approach like Lou has. It's changed my recruiting behaviors and resulted in dramatically different results. There are "aha" moments on nearly every page for both beginner and veteran recruiters alike.
Anyone in recruiting (especially in the agency or staffing side of the business) should read and digest this rare new book - which will help you serve your clients and managers better than you can imagine, and help you to work with candidates in ways that you hadn't thought of before.
I would encourage you to get a copy of this new version of Lou's book and keep it close by as a reference guide, as you'll re-read it many times over the weeks, months, and years to come.
