Good book - gives good overview

Thought this was an excellent book. Read it as wanted to understand the whole recruitment industry more clearly. Also read "How to Handle Your Recruitment Consultant", very different style and obviously approaching the area from the opposite angle - but very useful when read in conjunction with Recruiting Excellence.

At last - a great book on recruitment
|
|
I've been training recruiters for 15 years, and this is one of the best books I've read. It's a great combination of 'how to' advice and looking at the big picture. Grout and Perrin are particularly strong in two areas: discussing employer branding and how this impacts on candidates' attitudes (Virgin and Accenture attract huge numbers of talented applicants simply because of their brand as an employer). Secondly, there is plenty of support and advice around difficult issues of timing around job offers, and the best ways of handling salary negotiation.
