"I have a system of checking in with my clients on a weekly basis. My check-ins are not always to ask for a new job order but more often to see how a new placement is working out, or sending them an interesting article about their industry. The more interest I show in their day-to-day activities, the better they will trust me to understand their needs when it comes to talent sourcing."

Happy client relationships are everything to a recruitment agency, and the hiring authority wants to see that you are capable of maintaining their well-established client relationships while also creating new ones. Recruitment is a competitive industry with many staffing firms vying for exclusivity with their clients. As you know, exclusivity can only happen when your clients are thrilled with your service and have an excellent rapport with you. Discuss the ways you ensure the best customer service.

"Repeat business and referrals truly drive my business, and those only come from excellent client delivery. Great rapport starts with the ability to take and implement feedback. From there, I build relationships through active listening, ensuring that I always deliver on their needs over my own. I will never send a bad candidate to my client, to fill the role. My clients recognize and appreciate that integrity."
