What Does The First Month Look Like For A Recruiter Joining We Are Revolution?
This week, Marcy completed her first week with us and it's been fantastic to see her progress.
Many recruitment companies throw new hires straight into the deep end.
We take a different approach.
We believe success comes from combining structured training, coaching, activity and repetition.
The objective isn't to overwhelm people.
The objective is to build strong foundations.
Week One
During Week 1, our recruiters spend the majority of their time learning.
That includes:
Recruitment fundamentals
Candidate qualification
Telephone outreach
Objection handling
AI-powered roleplay
Live roleplay with recruiters
Systems and process training
Alongside that training, recruiters spend almost four hours a day speaking to candidates and developing real-world recruitment skills.
Our goal is simple.
By the end of Week 1, we want recruiters to have qualified and submitted their first candidate.
Week Two
Week 2 follows a similar structure but with slightly less training and more execution.
Recruiters begin learning:
LinkedIn outreach
Candidate attraction
Advertising
Shortlisting
Lead management
Salesforce
Managing opportunities
Building pipelines
Training remains a major part of the day.
So does phone activity.
By the end of Week 2, our objective is for recruiters to have qualified and submitted two candidates.
Week Three
Week 3 is about building confidence and consistency.
Recruiters continue developing the skills they learned during the first two weeks while increasing activity levels and taking on greater responsibility.
At this stage we expect recruiters to be:
Managing more candidate conversations
Running better qualification calls
Building stronger pipelines
Becoming more comfortable discussing opportunities
Our target is three qualified and submitted candidates during Week 3.
Week Four
By Week 4 we expect recruiters to be operating much more independently.
This includes:
Running interview processes
Managing vacancies
Pitching opportunities
Handling candidate objections
Managing client and candidate expectations
Our minimum target is four qualified and submitted candidates.
In reality, many recruiters achieve significantly more than that.
The Long-Term Goal
The first month is only the beginning.
Our long-term objective is to develop recruiters capable of consistently producing outstanding results.
For many of our recruiters, that means getting to a stage where they are qualifying and submitting 10 candidates per week to live opportunities.
That doesn't happen overnight.
It happens through repetition, coaching, activity and continuous improvement.
The Training Never Stops
The most important thing to understand about our business is that training never stops.
It doesn't matter whether somebody is in their first week or their tenth year.
Everyone trains.
Every day.
Training is part of our culture.
It's one of the reasons we have always invested heavily in roleplay, coaching, systems training and development.
We believe great recruiters are built.
And building great recruiters requires continuous learning.
Why We Do It
Could we reduce training?
Probably.
Would it save time?
Definitely.
Would it improve results?
We don't think so.
The best recruiters in our business are usually the people who embrace training the most.
The people who continuously improve.
The people who seek feedback.
The people who are committed to mastering their craft.
That's the environment we're trying to create.
An environment where ambitious people can develop quickly, perform at a high level and build exceptional careers.
Reading Marcy's feedback about her first week reminded us why we invest so heavily in people.
We're excited to see her progress over the coming months.
And we're excited to continue building a business where learning never stops.
