Why working in recruitment is a great career choice

Whether you’re just starting out in your career, or you’re looking for a change and a new challenge, working in recruitment might be just what you’re looking for. But if you’re new to an industry, it can be difficult to figure out if it’s the right choice for your future.

Working in recruitment is a great career (sure, we’re probably a little biassed because we have a team that loves what they do!). Here’s what we think makes recruitment the place to be.

Financial rewards and incentives

Want a career with uncapped earning potential? Look no further. And guess what - it’s totally OK to find motivation in earning money.

There are plenty of roles in recruitment with competitive base salaries on offer, but with the addition of commission structures (typically with no cap), you’ll have the opportunity to earn a great income.

As well as financial rewards, there’s also lots on offer for other types of performance incentives, too.

Becoming someone’s career hero

There’s no better feeling than when you’ve done a great job that’s made a real difference - and working in recruitment gives you the opportunity to help other people with finding what they want for their future.

Most of us spend the majority of our waking hours at work, so whether someone is starting, changing or progressing their careers, they’re usually making some big decisions. As a recruiter, you’ve got the chance to have a real impact in helping someone find their perfect next move.

And with lots of successful candidates that you work with, you might find they come back to you for your help when they’re ready to move again. You could be part of their career journey for years to come, and you’ll get to see them evolve and grow in each new role. That’s a real recipe for job satisfaction.

Career progression and personal development

Recruitment; it’s big. And it moves fast. That means that in this diverse and constantly evolving sector, there’s a huge amount of opportunities.

Recruitment careers attract people from all backgrounds, because it’s one of the few industries that looks for skills and experience in a variety of places. You don’t need industry specific qualifications or experience - you need the right attitude and a willingness to learn.

Because there’s diversity in recruitment teams, there’s always a focus on personal development and career progression. Recruiters are used to learning, changing and adapting - and that creates a culture with growth and development at its core. That’s why there’s amazing opportunities in recruitment to learn new skills and move up the career ladder.

Get industry insights as a specialist recruiter

Interested in a particular industry for your own career? Working as a recruiter in a specialist sector is a great chance to get some sector insights before making a career move into the industry.

Recruitment companies are always looking for team members who are passionate about an industry and can show they have the skills to communicate well with potential clients and candidates in the sector.

You’ll know what employers are looking for… handy

Whether your future career will be in recruitment, or it’s a career move that suits you right now, you’ll develop an in-depth understanding of what employers are looking for. You’ll hone interview skills from both sides of the table, learn what an amazing CV looks like and understand generally what makes a stand-out candidate.

So, wherever your future career takes you, you’ll be well equipped with the basics to help you land your ideal role every time you’re ready for the next step.
