Reasons to Consider a Career in Recruitment

Okay, so as a Recruitment company, we may be a little biased. However, we think there are tons of benefits to a career in Recruitment. Keep reading to see if you agree!

1) Specialist Market Knowledge

Are you an aspiring Engineer who is struggling to find a graduate or entry-level position? Maybe a Biology graduate who doesn't have enough experience? Becoming a Recruitment Consultant specialising in that industry allows you to gain incredibly valuable knowledge on not just the subject itself, but on how to create an attractive CV and nail an interview. Our Recruitment Consultants speak to hundreds of professionals every week, sift through thousands of CVs, and sit in on interviews with the most sought-after companies in the industry. This not only gives you an amazing insight on how to look the most attractive to prospective employers in the future, but allows you to build great relationships with those who you might be interviewing with.

2) Career Path

There is nothing quite like the career progression within the Recruitment industry. Particularly at g2 Recruitment, where we only ever promote organically. Even our Managing Director started out as a Trainee Recruitment Consultant! If you're looking to spend the early part of your career developing as a Recruitment Consultant, you can be promoted within the company and gain management experience faster than in any other industry. This is incredibly desirable no matter what your career plans.

3) Financial Benefits

Most people know that Recruitment Consultants are incredibly well-compensated for their time. Here at g2 Recruitment, our Graduates on our Graduate Programme can earn uncapped commission from day one, putting you completely in charge of how much you bring home. This affords you a lot of flexibility and freedom that you won't find in lower-paid jobs which are common in your early 20s.

4) Incentives

Being good at selling doesn't only come with financial benefits in terms of commission. It also enables you to aim for incredible incentives; including holidays, meals out, activities and much more. At g2 Recruitment, we continuously offer our graduates the opportunity to come to Michelin-star restaurants, and travel with us to incredible locations including Dubai, Miami, Barcelona and so much more. It's a great opportunity to see the world, as well as develop relationships with peers as well as lots of senior people within the business.

So why not give it a go? Recruitment involves long days and hard work, but some of the benefits that come with a career in the industry truly are unbeatable. And you never know - you may fall in love with it just like we did!
