Don’t be put off by
passive candidates!
They can be surprisingly
approachable.
• Be relevant – why them?
• Get them to say yes to the
next conversation
• Avoid being transactional;
build long-term relationships

You can’t be a great
recruiter without being
a great listener.
Don’t sell on title and
compensation alone.
Know your individual
candidates and what
they want.
Take great notes. Reference them
before each conversation and
share with your interview team.
