My main job is to get to know our clients and job seekers, and help both parties understand each other better. Even with the many job portals out there, the recruitment industry is still very necessary in matching employers with suitable employees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This job definitely keeps me on my toes and I find myself learning new things every day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Here are five reasons why I love my job!<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">1.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Meet and talk to people about anything and everything<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14315 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1480\" height=\"988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2.webp 1480w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2-1024x684.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_f5f52e21648442b7a7872462be49bcfcmv2-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">One of my favourite parts of being a recruiter is meeting people from different walks of life, almost every day. On one end, I get the chance to speak to clients from different industries and understand the type of employees they are looking for. On the other end, I get to meet different kinds of job seekers \u2013 from fresh graduates to people looking for a switch in their career path. I pretty much have a reason to ask them anything that I deem necessary for a client to know them better. Listening to their stories is always exciting and keeps my job refreshing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">2.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Not desk bound<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14314 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1480\" height=\"986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2.webp 1480w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2-1024x682.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_7c6829ae80cd43d8aa53d73f4a309811mv2-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Think about your favourite caf\u00e9 at Orchard. Imagine being able to work in that quaint environment and enjoy the mouth-watering desserts at the same time. Doesn\u2019t that sound amazing?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Well, as a recruiter, you will be able to do so as part of your job! This job is definitely not desk-bound. On a regular basis, you will get to meet clients and candidates out of the office. Be it a caf\u00e9 at Orchard or a restaurant at Marina Bay Sands, this job literally take you places.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">3.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Freedom and flexible time management<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14313 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1480\" height=\"988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2.webp 1480w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2-1024x684.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/cdn-01.cms-ap-v2i.applyflow.com\/luxury-careers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/296a8c_80c8088a29df4a8292dddd803e70b5c9mv2-768x513.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1480px) 100vw, 1480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As a recruiter, I am fortunate to have a wealth of independence and freedom over my daily workload. Instead of being tied down by mundane tasks every day, I get to manage my tasks and complete them at my own time. Once I have my goals in place, I will have the flexibility in arranging client and candidates meetings to my liking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">4.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>A valuable stepping stone to other industries<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Another exciting part of being a recruiter is that it opens up doors to different industries. Throughout my career, I have worked with clients from various industries and learnt about the ins-and-outs of these industries. Acquiring these knowledge allows me to match potential employees to the job openings that my clients are looking for. Over time, I found myself picking up in-depth industry knowledge, relevant skills and a whole network of useful contacts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Even if you don\u2019t see yourself staying in the recruitment industry for long, it is definitely a good place to start.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">5.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Highly rewarding<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Lastly, being a recruiter brings me an incredible sense of fulfilment. From first meeting a candidate, to getting to know him or her through several conversations, and finally to helping them secure a new job. Seeing someone through the entire recruitment process is extremely satisfying.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Overall, my job allows me to feel recharged and emotionally fulfilled on a day-to-day basis \u2013 right now, I can\u2019t see myself doing anything other than this.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If you\u2019re looking to step out into the working world, or looking for a switch in career, try giving the recruitment industry a shot!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a recruiter, I work with clients from different industries \u2013 beauty, fashion, luxury \u2013 and connect them with potential job seekers.
