The Art of Closing Candidates


In the current candidate driven market, recruiting outcomes are becoming less predictable. Highly sought candidates are being approached with multiple offers from competing companies. Ghosting and offer declines are becoming a common experience for many recruiters.
In this landscape the “always be closing” mentality is a must-have.
