Secure, Survive, Thrive: How to Get into Recruitment, Survive Your Probation Period and Smash Your Targets in Your First 12 Months!

Amazon's "Interviewing and Recruitment" top 10 seller recruitment book has now sold hundreds of copies across the world and received praise throughout.

Whether you’re looking to get into recruitment, are in your first year, or just want to hone your craft, this book is a must-listen. The tips and tricks, gleaned from a decade in the industry, are relevant for all sectors and will help both temporary and permanent recruiters. Conversational and easy to digest, the book is fast-paced and full of practical advice.

You will discover in its three separate sections:

  • Secure: The insider information about the recruitment sector that you need to know to interview better. This section teaches you how to structure your CV to secure an interview (even if you have little or no experience), how to prepare for your interview so you’re offered the job, and finally, if all else fails, how to bypass the screening process and invite yourself in!
  • Survive: Hints and tips from an industry expert that will help you survive your probation period. This includes how to keep the pressure off you while you develop your skills, how to avoid some common mistakes, and how to manage your mindset to remain consistent and effective.
  • Thrive: How to thrive in your role and move towards top biller status by effectively name gathering and company mapping, reaching more buyers, beating even the toughest of gatekeepers, having more control over your calls, how to use tone, pitch, and pace to your advantage, and how to plan for and expect the "no". It also includes some industry hacks for speedy and efficient administration, and how to avoid the yo-yo effect to gain consistency over your results.

My promise to you!

This book, if used effectively and consistently, will give you the knowledge and wisdom to help you get into your first recruitment job, survive your probation, and smash your targets in your fist 12 months! - SJ

Only having a rough idea of the recruitment processes, I found this book a great way of imagining what my day-to-day work will be before I start. Packed with great tips of objection handling and organisational/efficiency tips, I highly recommend to anyone starting out in recruitment or looking to become more efficient in their day to day work.

I'm looking forward to starting and putting these tips into action!

Thank you!

After many years in sales, I was recently offered a self-employed role at a recruitment company. Having always been pretty confident at sales, I figured that I would do very well and would be a top-biller in no time.

All I can say is thank god I disvoered this book. Quickly into the book a realised that my planned approach and attitude towards this new role was completely wrong. I was not prepared for the position at all. I did not know nearly enough about the industry and what to expect.

Having finished the book, I am in a much better place than I would have been. I have been able to fully prepare for the challange, adjust my train of thought and implement skills and tactics that I would never have thought to before.

Recruitment is a CHALLENGE. Without this book I would have been a complete wreck. Thank you so much for writing this gem.

Thank god I discovered before started my new job!
