Today, I got schooled in what makes a successful recruiter in the blue-collar labour hire sector (in a good, full of laughs kind of way) as it’s a whole different ballgame to what I do in white collar perm!

Today on my mission to interview 100 Recruiters to determine the ultimate recipe for recruitment success I speak with Richard Barrett, who is a successful blue-collar labour hire recruiter from ARG Workforce working primarily in the Rail sector.

We cover:

👉 The key KPIs, interview questions, and candidate engagement tactics that drive success in the temp / labour hire world.

👉 The challenges of labour hire & how Ricky deals with high turnover rates.

👉 Why counter-offer isn’t really a thing & what is important instead (i.e being a good collective salary negotiator).

If you’re a recruiter looking to excel in blue-collar recruitment, this episode is a must-watch!
