New to recruitment? Exciting work if you can get it!
The concept of a career in recruitment consulting may well not have crossed your mind. At Ambition, we can offer one of the most comprehensive, demanding and rewarding recruitment careers available.
We owe our position as one of the most innovative international recruitment consulting businesses to a 'front-office' and support team of outstanding skill and quality ...and this is where you come in...
The challenge of recruitment is obvious - we are in an archetypal service and marketing business - but our 'product' asks questions and has a mind of its own! It is our ability to assist and influence the shaping of an individual's career that provides genuine job satisfaction.
What does an Ambition consultant do day to day?
A lot more than meets the eye.
Our consultants are intermediaries (or brokers) between companies seeking to recruit professional staff (our clients) and professional staff seeking a career move or contract assignment (our candidates). That's far from all there is to it though. This process has endless variations and complications that depend on variables such as the competencies/skills and experience required, the client's working environment, career prospects offered and, most importantly, the personality match.
It is the Ambition consultant's role to manage this exercise for both the employer and the job seeker and to satisfy both parties. An integral part of this process is to obtain information by talking to and meeting with people in many different scenarios.
You become a matchmaker.
The more market knowledge you have, the more often you'll bring your clients and candidates together in a successful match. And while we benefit from a good reputation in the marketplace and provide considerable internal support, your success will largely depend on you 'making it happen' for yourself through your passion, your professionalism your proactive approach and persistence.
If you've got Ps, you are already in possession of the basics to enjoy and be successful in our team.
Getting to the starting line...Is enough of a challenge for some.
Recruiting consultants for Ambition is probably the most difficult assignment we face each year. Our outstanding team of consultants is what sets us apart, therefore, we insist on recruiting people who have:
- Real talent and a high degree of motivation;
- An impatience to learn;
- An over-supply of drive and are inherently energetic;
- A desire for an environment in which to work hard & play hard
And that's just to get to the starting line!
