Not Knowledge?? “You can be the best relationship builder, interest generator, objection overcomer, opportunity seller, and candidate closer in the universe, but you won’t achieve a single hire/placement until you find the right person to build a relationship with and “close.””

Wish more were like them, along the lines of working smart, and not losing one's work in finding & keeping in contact with qualified candidates.

"Real" recruiting involves a complete skill-set, or a combination of people with expertise. Finding the right people is the key and then matching them to opportunities is the icing on the cake.

As my first Recruiting manager taught me it doesn't matter where you meet them, just always be on the lookout for them to build relationships! It amazes me how we Recruiters who are in the business of change like to cling to old technology and resist new ones; GM vs. Toyota. I agree that if you can't find the right people then you need the loud plaid blazer and cliches to hard sell. Keep posting real context!
