Grow Your Recruitment Firm – 12-month Mentoring Programme
If you feel that a consistent guiding hand and a fresh pair of experienced eyes will help you grow your business, there is now a cost-effective solution EVERY business owner can afford.
Since 1998 Warren has been helping recruiters recruit better. Other than standing up and delivering training, it has been through a mix of mentoring, consulting and interim leadership. What he gets a buzz out of is seeing a project through from scratch to a successful conclusion. So, he has come up with a support system for you by way of a mentoring programme.
Initially, there will be three days in total (two days together and one four weeks later) of personalised one to one help. This is then supported by 12 months unlimited email and telephone access and a minimum of a further four, quarterly half day face to face sessions.
If you want to know more, then contact Warren direct on 07976 828637 or speak to us here at Head Office.
Upcoming Course Dates
“Good couple of days. Learnt a lot and had good fun. Warren managed to make the days very enjoyable and has certainly improved my knowledge and skill set for the job which I shall now try and portray in my career in recruitment. Many Thanks.”
“I came to this course with no knowledge in recruitment but since attending, I feel I have a great understanding of what recruitment is about and I feel so much more confident!”
Background
There is an old question that goes “What if I spend money on training my staff and they then leave?” and the answer is “What if I don’t and they stay?” Too many new recruits don’t get the help and guidance they deserve when they first join a company – it’s the quick whirl round the office meeting a few people, getting shown the basics of how the database works, listening to how their new colleagues make a few calls and then they are let loose. If you want your next hire to make a positive contribution early and to consistently deliver good results in the months and years to come, then giving them quality training in their first few weeks is vital. A well thought out and structured introduction to recruitment is key to future success.
Training is a big investment of your time and money. Recruitment Matters International believe that in order to get the very best out of training, attention and concentration is everything. That’s why we’ve condensed our induction programme into two days. Any longer, and minds can wander and money and time spent isn’t fully optimised. Experience has taught us that a maximum two days in a focussed learning environment really works. In the current climate having grounding in what’s needed to succeed in recruitment is simply crucial.
Who should attend?
‘Two Day Induction’ is an introduction to the recruitment process and the key skills involved. Ideal for those entering recruitment for the first time or recruiters with limited experience who wish to formalise their initial learning. Suggested experience level : 0-12 months

How to find the very best candidates – whatever methodology is needed
“Great course. Job well done. Thank you.”
“Was a fantastic course – continually engaging, have learnt a great deal and has had an immediate impact on my working practices. Highly recommended!”
This course is aimed at Resourcers, Researchers and candidate-facing Recruiters. This is an in-depth research course to help you identify and approach ‘A’ grade candidates and includes all methodologies.
If you want more of an overview and help with the process of a search campaign, including client management, then our Successful Head-Hunting course is more appropriate. If you wish to learn how to win an assignment and sell search, then our Selling Executive Search and Winning Retained Assignments course is right for you. If you need any help in choosing the best option, please contact us.
With technology constantly being improved and social media becoming ever more accurate, being able to attract and source the very best candidates – and quickly – for your vacancies is vital. The recruiter’s bar keeps being raised. Maximising your chances of success means that today’s successful recruiter has to be able to blend the old with the new and the current with the cutting edge. Your existing database is still the first place to look of course. But if that 4 year old CV doesn’t quite fit the vacancy criteria, being able to quickly & proactively source that same individual’s most recent details might just help you produce a quality candidate for the role. Should we now ignore the job boards? After all, there are now so many potentially blurring what works? No of course not – but you do have to be able to identify the most appropriate one(s) and write killer ads if you are going to get that quality applicant at the start of their search. And if that still isn’t producing you the star candidate? Then you have to step up to the plate and go find them!
This one day course will explore and deal with how best to:
- Utilise your database
- Write winning adverts
- Have candidates coming to you via social media (LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.)
- Via social media, identify individuals you want to approach
- How to build a strong network
- Use Boolean logic and X-ray techniques to find information & people
- Have a robust and proactive candidate sourcing process & pipeline
- Introduce yourself positively both online & over the telephone
- Become your sector’s recruiter of choice

“All around it was a great course, good references, put into great context with who was in attendance on the day. Good size class. Was very pleased. Great value for money.”
Overview
With more and more job seekers continuing to come onto the market, and seemingly happy to take any suitable job, it has never been more important to get the right information quickly. According to the AGR (Association of Graduate Recruitment) we are experiencing some of the highest ever levels of candidate drop out.
Just because they are technically competent, keen and available, doesn’t make them the right fit. Your time needs to be spent wisely and candidates both in and out of work can be a major source of information regarding your market. Remember a stunning candidate will still help open doors for you.
This course aims to give your consultants a more transparent, controlled and structured approach to candidate qualification and management, ultimately resulting in improved billings and a significantly improved candidate to placement ratio.
- Fine-tune your interviewing skills both face to face and over the phone.
- Understand the basis & structure of a well-planned interview.
- Learn how to use behavioural based questioning and conduct competency based interviews.
- Confidently gain rapport and uncover the candidate’s true motivators
- Analyse candidate information to plan effective questioning.
- Comfortably & quickly screen the candidate so you spend time with the right individuals and build long term contacts.
- Gain the confidence to know when “it’s a fit”.
- Consistently reduce candidate drop out levels including controlling the counter offer.
- Learn how to manage and control the recruitment process.
- Understand the top 6 legislations to safeguard you, your candidates and your clients.
- Compile a portfolio of interview skills and techniques to adapt to any situation.
Who should attend?
This one day course is ideal for anyone whose role incorporates candidate screening, interviewing and presentation including line managers/hiring authorities in the corporate environment. Additionally, managers and team leaders who are responsible for training their team in recruitment techniques will gain huge benefit from interviewing being broken down into manageable, understandable and measurable chunks. Or perhaps, after years of asking the same questions, you just need a refresher?
The Agenda
- Taking an effective job order
- Understanding which sourcing methodology to use
- Pre-screening & vetting from the CV
- Screening over the phone

Managing People and Motivating Teams
“It’s amazing how much you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit”
Harry Truman, US President (1945-53)
“Very enjoyable and informative, gave lots of food for thought and I have provided positive feedback to our company directors.”
“I went into the course with management experience, and whilst a lot of the content I had heard/read previously, there were several ‘light bulb’ moments for me thanks to the way that the training was delivered.”
Overview
One of the most difficult management challenges there is in recruitment is to run a billing desk and find time to look after others at the same time. Getting the balance right isn’t easy. Yet, by consistently following some simple rules, and having the knowledge of when and how to get involved with those reporting to you, it is something that can be relatively straightforward. With all of us facing some challenging times ahead, it isn’t simply good management but great motivational skills, too, that will help make the difference.
Who should attend?
This one-day introduction to managing & motivating people and teams is ideal for recruiters who are new to management and for the more experienced manager who has perhaps been self taught or had no formal training.
Course Outline
- Qualities of great motivators & managers
- Self evaluation & action plan for self development
