Unfortunately, too many companies make costly mistakes by not vetting their recruiters properly. This leads to inefficiency, wasted time, wasted resources, diminished status within the corporate hierarchy, etc. It's not surprising. There's still no professional degree or even professional certification for recruiters. And, over the years, recruiting has gotten more sophisticated. Once closed networks are wide open. Today, it's less about processing people and more about leveraging technology, relationship building and managing information. Now more than ever, it takes talented corporate recruiters to find talented employees.
