Of course, you’ve still got the classic struggles of juggling open roles (many, if you’re lucky!), engaging with a constant stream of jobseekers, and striving to build lasting relationships with your clients. However, the modern recruiter also has to balance the need for efficiency and competitiveness with the fundamental human connections that underpin successful placements.

Being a great multitasker is often regarded as a key skill for recruiters. Between business development, candidate outreach, interviews, calls, emails, and beyond, there is pressure to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously. However, the research suggests that true multitaskers are as rare as the proverbial purple squirrel.
For many recruiters, spending a significant part of their day on calls is the norm. But it’s easy to miss key information when taking handwritten or unstructured notes. That’s where well-crafted web forms can make a difference.
