I am often encouraged to do this myself; there are many who tell me that I'd be quite a good recruiter. I know lots of ways recruiters could be a better job.

I am often encouraged to do this myself; there are many who tell me that I'd be quite a good recruiter. I know lots of ways recruiters could be a better job. For example don't say "I hear you" when you really didn't. Not you personally but there is a recruiter I've been talking to who says that quite a lot. The reason I don't is that I regard recruiting as something that a company should do internally. That is, even a staffing agency would find you good employees, it's better for your company to find them itself. Even so, sometimes I entertain the idea. I have lots of ideas for things I could do that to the best of my knowledge no other recruiter does.
