A lot of agencies are in a period of growth and need to hire to keep up with the increased workflow they’re experiencing, but there isn’t an unlimited supply of experienced consultants out there. The answer to this is taking on trainees.
They may have no previous recruitment experience, but they are a clean slate, eager to learn and possess lots of transferrable skills that give them the potential to make fantastic consultants…with the right support and training. A lot of agencies see this as a risky move, but if done properly it can really help grow the business.
