Hola mis lectores,
Its been a while since I last wrote anything. As you can tell by the title, you have decide to read about "10 Things You Realize When Being A Recruiter". This is solely my opinion and what I realize while working and being on the path as a recruiter now.
Vamos a ser, no?
"10 Things You Realize When Being A Recruiter"
- That you are constantly grateful you have a job. Seeing others finding a job and trying their best, actually sentimentally effects your feelings
- You scan through resumes like a "Pro". Top line, academic background and skill. Checked or reject
- Your life is not just about calling candidate and posting on job websites. Its calling, posting, offering and hiring.
- NO one understands the tediousness of our roles, because we are constantly smiling. I mean CONSTANTLY.
- You are not allowed to be sad even when we get REJECTED (by candidates, after all the process of calling, scheduling interview and even offering a offer letter, we still get rejected)
- You have an inner (customer service) voice that you ONLY use when you call a candidate
- You seem to understand many jargon, because Managers sends their Job Description in a whole different language like Auto CAD, PCBA, C, C++ ... (Thank God for Google)
- You learn to be patient with everyone and everything around you
- You are patient because everyday you take one step at a time (Most times huge steps, to close your requisition and get the job effectively)
- And LASTLY, that satisfying feeling of closing the req in the system and knowing deep down in your heart, you have help in securing a job for that someone!
Being a recruiter is no child's play. It's about teaching you to be humble each and every time.
I hope you find this small article entertaining. I sure did enjoy writing this. If it relates to you, please do share it or if you have any comments do not hesitate to reach out :)

Con mucho amor;
