I recently placed a really promising candidate who the client liked right away and wanted to move forward quickly. When it came to negotiations, there was a mismatch in expectations, the offer didn’t fit what we had discussed initially.
This is exactly where my role as an external recruiter shows its value. I stepped in, talked to both the candidate and the company, clarified everything, and smoothed out the miscommunication. In the end, the issue was resolved and the match went through successfully, with the salary aligning with both sides’ expectations.
Moments like these really show how working with an external recruiter can add unexpected but important value. When companies make full use of their recruiter, it avoids rushed decisions, leading to better results and a smoother, more enjoyable process for everyone involved.
