"When I read in your job posting that you are looking for a recruiter with a specialty in accounting, I knew I had to apply. Before joining the world of recruitment, I completed my CPA. After practicing for a couple of years, I found it a bit dry and decided recruitment and business development was a better path for me. I have a lot of knowledge on accounting systems and terms, making me a perfect choice for this opportunity. I can hold an excellent conversation with candidates from controllers to financial lawyers."

Share with the interviewer what your specialties are, or which areas interest you the most. Perhaps you have a degree in a specific field of work. Maybe you worked in the therapeutic medical device field before becoming a recruiter, making you great at spotting terrific candidates in medicine. If the firm you are interviewing for has a specific niche, be sure never to single yourself out or talk yourself out of the role.

"Before becoming a recruiter, I worked in medical device sales. I have a solid reach into our state's medical network and also know how to spot an excellent sales candidate. I make fantastic placements in both the sales field for any industry or in the medical industry itself."
