Habit #5: They aren’t afraid of teamwork — Recruiting can be a tough industry. While it’s easy to become isolated from your team members, good recruiters share their experience and learn from their team members. Habit #6: They don’t get caught up in the latest trends — Good recruiters know where they accel and where they don’t. While good recruiters are open to change, they are able to analyze the trend and see where their successes lie. Habit #7: They listen –Good recruiters don’t just pretend to listen, actually actively listen and become aware of their clients’ needs.
