It can be hard at the start man but stay consistent and have that belief that it will come and it will! Gotta do the activity everyday regardless of that result. If you have candidates focus on speaking to x number of clients everyday without fail. Focus on building relationships rather than just selling. You can do this!

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Come on boys lets get it🤑

Thanks man appreciate it

cheers man hope it helps!

@raheemyt7053 You can send general intro emmails but theyre not effective in my opinion.. in the industry we are taught to send targeted specs and are the best way to win new business. Follow that up with a call and it increases your chances further

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 80 Spec CV sends with your best candidate or multiple candidates? They are going to pick the best one anyway tbf, I guess you could still send worse candidates to make your best one look better right?

Step 1. Go to LinkedIn Step2. In search bar type in ("job title" OR "other job title variation" AND "birmingham"). Boolean search is the most accurate - You should get a list of Thousands of the job title you are after within that location. Does that make sense? Step 3. Connect and message - Use apollo to get their email and or phone number

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 What about the untapped companies that aren't on LinkedIn, we may be missing out on them, what do you reckon?

@@raheemyt7053 Well you could be but most established companies that have sought after candidates are on there these days. That being said there are great candidates from great companies that aren't on linkedIn especially in construction but there are other ways to find them - referrals being a great one

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Lovely stuff my friend. I wish you the most success in your journey and I will keep up with you and update you on my progress. Stay positive because this game can turn you crazy😂

@raheemyt7053 thanks bro I appreciate that! Don't I know it haha but the rewards are worth it 100 percent

I have actually trialed CV Library but I haven't found them to be much use in my niche in Ireland. I've found the best success with linkedIn connecting with passive candidates not actively looking. Have you tried any of them in the Irish market?

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 I don’t actually work in the Irish markets but seems decent as you get quite a few email responses😂 I’ve only recently started. Just wanted to ask how you find a hiring managers email from LinkedIn

In my opinion hands down the first one mentioned!

Don't have a fix for that one unfortunately pal

you're welcome bro hope it helps

for most niches that place is linkedIn

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 appreciate the response pal. I'd love to see a video of the process if you haven't got a vid already. Completely new to recruiting

@@zd1281 made one already but just mad a fresh one for you:)

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 appreciate it fella, thank you

thanks man, will do I need to categorise them and make a playlist i'll work on it!

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 I need updated email template and Terms and conditions form. Can I get it from you?

Agreed @moomooatl. If just looking to place individual roles and get quick placements. That being said, I don't want clients that just use me just for the good one off candidates but also want to be seen as a partner to their specific needs and build a close relationship with them and get large projects on specific to their needs. In order to build credibility being a specialist is crucial for me and makes life easier in my opinion because I can recycle candidates again and again.. but not the only way for sure. Thanks so much for the support, glad you liking the videos :)

Hi Calum, In the market I recruit for its very rare that you would have a candidate apply to a job board like indeed plus they're generally not the type of candidates you are looking for because I want candidates that will work with me exclusively. Candidates that are actively applying have usually applied for multiple jobs. They good caniddates are usually the passive talent that are not actively looking but would be open to a conversation.

​@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Hi Andrew, can you accept my Linkedin invitation for a chat? I have a couple more questions i'd love to ask. Currently working in sales doing really well but have a calling for recruitment. Just need some guidance..

If its a small company, target the MD or CEO and work downwards. Here's the sauce, theres 2 ways to find out the exact person. 1. Speak to 5 of your candidates and ask each of them who they reported to. That will give you the exact manager you need. I say 5 incase there are any variations of job title.. 2. Go to Chat GPT after speaking with 1 candidate and ask it to give you all variations for the job title your candidate mentions they report to

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 you absolute legend. Thanks many for this Andrew!

@@HichamB-i2b welcome bro! let me know how it goes

without doing a desk audit on your business its hard to say but questions I would ask is 1. What niche are you in and is it candidate or client market currently for your niche? 2. If its candidate (high demand for the type of candidate you are marketing) then how many emails are you sending out each day consistently? - are you tracking responses etc... what sort of feedback are you getting 3. Messaging - Are you sending a clear concise message that highlights the candidate in an enticing way to make them want to interview. 4. Are you targeting the right people that would want to hire that candidate? There are so many variables to consider before just increasing the volume

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Thanks a lot Andrew - My niche is within Construction I.e Site managers & Estimators in SE England - currently doing about 50 emails a day to HR Managers. What your initial outlook from what needs to change?

@@HichamB-i2b Happy to help! So straight away here's my advice. Decent niche, and its a candidate market which is good. You shouldn't be targeting the HR Manager. HR along with TA are essentially your competitor and wouldn't neccesarily have your best interests at heart. Here's what to do: Continue with your 50 per day but target the hiring manager directly with specific reasons in your email what that candidate can do for that employer. Let me know how you get on.

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 thanks many Andrew - appreciate the support !

@@HichamB-i2b No worries at all! you got this

I usually set it to around 35 per day. LinkedIn will usually only allow you to send 100- 180 connections per week and then it will only allow the rest of the connections to be sent through email on dripify

welcome bro, glad it's helping! 🙏

Don't usually cold call clients! Mostly all Warm calls... Build rapport and relationship with them first through various channels with my VA then arrange a call/ meeting with them

I don't do it regularly to be honest but email me at [email protected] and we can work something out.

postdrips

you're welcome Jacob - hope the videos help! Best of luck with it

Thanks for the support bro! Sure I will work on that for the next few videos in that case

🤣🤣 That's so true although people might get the wrong Idea lol

@g8tr1522 well just maybe if I did it and it worked then maybe copy me I guess? Thanks for the feedback

I think it was pretty useful, he broke down the entire process pretty well.

@@aniketacharya512 Thank you, appreciate the kind words I really hope it helps 🙏

It's called postdrips 👌

I used upwork to hire the va but talent can be hit or miss on there if I'm honest. The best way to hire a va is to have in mind exactly what it is you are looking for them to do and then make sure they can do said thing before you hire them

@zededits6322 I use a recruitment software called recruiterflow which has the ability to automate all the campaigns from inside it, its amazing and I can do another video on it. Have used Instantly and I have an account there. Instantly is also brilliant if you are going to be sending a lot of volume and need to keep your domains warmed but in my niche my hit rate is pretty good so don't need to send many emails for a deal, hope it helps!

@James-ic1mp 100% James it is boring for sure but it works! It can be automated to some extent aswell using various tools and a VA which I've since hired, shes a rock star!

So in recruitment, the client always pays for the recruitment service - we find the employee for thm and then we invoie the client. There are two different markets based on the supply / demand of the job titles you are recruiting for. In what I recruit for example, the clients are easy to obtain because everyone is willing to hire the skillset. Their is a shortage in the market within Ireland currently. In my case the candidates are very hard to find but I know that as soon as I get one it's pretty much a gauranteed deal. For a client led market, clients are harder to attract because companies wont need a recruiter as much and there is usually plenty of candidates in the market . The idea is you pick a market somewhere in the middle ideally. Hope this helps clarify @luxurypetscz?

It will be the hiring company - nobody in Ireland would pay for a recruiter to find them a job.

100% James, Also it makes more sense as a model for the company to pay. They need the talent and have a big bank roll for it every year. Candidates are looking for a job to make money

Tell that to youtube bro haha

​@@AndrewOCallaghan983haha I've binged through most your videos last couple days, do you have any materials that can help me starting an agency?

Thanks bro, appreciate you.. Sure just reach out to me on [email protected]

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. Glad to hear you are becoming more productive. You got this!

Hey bro, thanks for the kind words, I am glad the videos are helping you! Firstly, congrats on making it this far, you are doing great so keep it up! To Answer your questions 1. Figure out what you wanna achieve monetary wise and just work it backwards. ie - if you wanna do 3 placements each month - figure out how many interviews you need to make that happen, emails you need to send to get an interview etc... (key metrics should always be emails sent out, Interviews in my opinion.. Get the interviews booked and you will make deals). 2. Email with a follow up call if they don't respond.

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Amazing, thank you! Once I’ve worked out how many emails = Interview requests, things will become a lot more easier in terms of how much volume is needed etc. In the meantime and I know there are a lot of factors and it’s market dependant, location etc but as a rough guide, to begin with from your experience, how many (MPC) emails should someone aim to send a day to begin with until the metrics become clear? And how long do you usually give it before following up with a call? Appreciate the help Andrew!

@skhanz36 You got this bro! It's hard to say because it depends on your niche but if you're sending out great candidates and not getting any interviews then double the output but also try to figure out why they don't want to interview. Is there no need at the moment or is the candidate actually good enough/ presented in the best possible way to attract an interview from the client... I only have to send 15 to 20 emails to get a few interviews but my niche is very candidate driven.. if you are in a client driven niche you might have to send 100+ I'll usually follow up with a call 24 hours later but if clients are never replying you can do it sooner and talk them through the candidates you sent

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 Love it! 👌🏼 Look forward to watching more of your vids! Keep em coming

@@skhanz36 Thanks man, hope they help you make lots of $$

Sorry man, just seen busy lately, I'll make an update video shortly

Not Sure about that one Raymond but a recruitment agency is a tangible business model. Don't take my word for it though, do your own research or watch the content and just try it for yourself. 10K per month is nothing, its only on placement, I know people making a lot more with recruitment.

I think both could be good highly specialised niches. Great if you could get in and dominate the niche meaning knowing every candidate and client within the space. I would suggest trying to find a couple of really good candidates first and approaching a hiring manager with lets say a pharmacist. This will give you an idea firstly how hard they are to find and secondly if there is demand. A bonus tip, if they are really hard to find, that usually means there will be lots of people willing to use an agency to find them one!

I think it could be a good Niche. Speculating here but it might be quite tough to find candidates though because a lot of more senior people eventually try to set up their own practice.

Thanks @Bishalysl. All the same principals still apply today. I wouldn't do anything different and I continue to use the same strategies. Get super consistent at execution and you will see good results

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 I don’t think the recruiter and employer tab in indeed is accurate anymore, do you know of this or is the niches im looking for just have not a lot of recruiters

Thanks Raja!

Thanks Mike 100 percent! Big lessons learnt here, onwards and upwards 🙏😁

Keep up the great work. You are on the right path.

Thanks Mike, appreciate the kind words. As are you! Let's get it!

They do if the contract was signed beforehand but I leveraged a candidate interview to get the client interested in working with me. I have a meeting with them on Monday so I'll let you know what the outcome is 😀

@@AndrewOCallaghan983I have a contract template we use for those situations. It means that even without signature, you (legally) represent the candidate - and they have to pay a fee, signature or not! Happy to share if it’s helpful. I’m a Life Sciences agency owner of 8 years! 🤗

@@woopsh123 That is a terrific fix to Andrew's problem here. Contact with a client should have this document sent to the client in advance of a meeting being set between the client and the candidate. You protect your agency's interest and reputation, your candidate from being possibly manipulated by the client, and also not wasting your candidate or client's time. Sending the document in advance of that meeting lets you know if your client is actually serious about paying you for your services and sets up a path to give you a way to legally resolve a non-payment issue. For the record, I am not a lawyer.

@@woopsh123 I had similar issue with few months ago. It was completely waste of time, resource and money. It would be really helpful. Would you be open to share with me the contract template for such situation? I am into nutrition sales recruitment, primarily US market.

@@user-yt3my7uq7u sure!!! Fancy sending me an email address to my dm’s? Or, if you can think of a better way - I’m open to ideas. 😄

I 100 percent agree with you!... its the kinda thing where we know what we should be doing but I let the excitement of a potential deal get in the way. Onwards and upwards!

@@AndrewOCallaghan983 I totally understand, my old manager would beat it into our heads. lol
