- Cold calling
- Business development
- Employment diversity
- Business ethics
- Health and safety
- Legal practices
- Candidate selection
- Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)

This list is to name just a few areas of training! Discuss with the interviewer what you believe to be the essential skill for a new Agency Recruiter. Then, express how strong you are in that particular topic. If you are a more seasoned recruitment professional, you can also talk about your experience in training new Agency Recruiters.

"Fast and accurate research, in my opinion, is the best skill for a new Agency Recruiter to have. For that reason, I believe that keywording, SEO, and boolean training is critical. A new recruiter can then dig up excellent candidates for an agency's talent pool and uncover new client opportunities. I am highly skilled in these areas and more than willing to train new Agency Recruiters on these topics. In my current position, I have trained approximately 12 new Agency Recruiters in the past three years, all of whom have proven to be skilled researchers."
