Talent spotters or headhunters, call them what you like – recruitment consultants are there to identify and select the best candidates for vacancies in line with a company’s recruitment policies.
Fun fact
“What’s your best quality? Why do you want to join our company?” Aside from the classics, some recruitment consultants try to wrong-foot candidates these days to see what they’re made of! The website Glassdoor publishes its rankings of the weirdest questions heard in interviews every year. How many ping-pong balls can you fit on a bus? How long would it take to wash every window in London? Who would win in a fight between Spiderman and Batman? And one question guaranteed to keep you awake at night: if you were a vegetable, which vegetable would you be?
