Rec 2 Rec is a strange term we admit and yet in the recruitment sector it is a well-known
phrase. Rec 2 Rec stands for recruitment to recruitment. Rec to Rec companies provide a
vital service for the recruitment sector in general. It makes sense really where do recruitment
companies go when they need new staff? You know that high biller, someone that knows
there sector. If general business companies use recruiters why not recruitment business
owners themselves.
So how does it all work? Very much like recruitment in general. A new position becomes
available and then the business owner decides what type of candidate they want to fill that
role. You might think they want just anyone. That is not the case. There might be team
dynamics involved, perhaps a new graduate who they teach the ropes, maybe they need a
high biller that has a proven track record and can bring their ‘desk’ with them.
All making sense so far? So as an ambitious recruiter what should you do?
1. Recognised Company
The first step is to find an established and recognised rec2 rec company that will fit your
needs. As a great recruiter you will be in high demand and as a result it is important that you
get the best role for you. That is why it is important to choose the right company for you that
will profile you and your skills so you get the recruiter job of your dreams.
Unfortunately not every company works this way. A suggestion is to look around for an
established and credible company. One that has a track record for delivering and serving both
candidates and clients well.

2. Sector experience
The next step is to look at the sectors they serve and how long the recruiters have been
working in that sector. It makes sense that the longer the rec 2 rec consultant has been
working in that sector the better he or she will know that market and importantly how many
contacts they have. If you talk to many recruiters they will often say that getting clients is not
the main issue, it is finding the high quality candidates that no one has access to. That could
be you by the way!
3. Research online
An easy way to find a good rec 2 rec is to jump online. A quick Google search will often
bring rewards. Have a look at their website. Is it modern and with the times. Do they look
like they care about candidates and clients? Do they add value? Then head over to LinkedIn
and connect with them on. If thy walk their talk you will see that they are active with words
of advice, encouragement.

4. Go and meet them
The next logical step is to go and have a chat with them. Give them a call and then meet up
for a coffee. As a recruiter yourself you will know that the face to face contact you have with
people tells you a lot about them How do they present themselves,. Does the written word
reflect what you are seeing with your own eyes?
Once you have gone through this four step process you are on the route to working with a rec
2 rec that will help you land the recruiter role of your dreams.
Till next time
