business about building long-term relationships with talent and clients. This
is why measuring the success of each job placement is important to your
long-term success as a recruiter. After a candidate has been place with an
employer, your job is not finished. Now it's time to measure the success of
that placement. Here are thee questions you should ask:

satisfied are you with the recruiting process? This question can be asked of both the candidate and
the client. Listen closely to
their answers and don't be shy about asking for details. Did the process
take to long? Was it not clear enough? The answers you receive will help you perfect your
recruiting process.
- How
satisfied are you with your placement? This question can be asked after 30
day, 90 days and a year. Did
the client get what they expected?
Is the employer providing the opportunities and challenges the
candidate craves? The answers
to these questions will help you determine how successful and accurate
your placements are over the long-term.
- How
can I make the recruiting process more beneficial to you? This last
question will offer an opportunity to receive useful suggestions that will
help you serve your clients and candidates better in the future. Many
times outsiders offer the best insight into how we can run our business
more effectively.
