Good recruiting intuition takes time to build up. But once you develop your recruiting sixth sense you will know the job hoppers, the excuse makers, the troublemakers and the bullspitters (yeah, I said spitters, trying to keep it pg-13 folks).

Remarkably, some Recruiters can simply read a resume and know instantly if the candidate is full of it. Some Recruiters need to have a phone screen and then make a determination. The rest of us need to meet face to face and then know why the candidate job hopped, were “let go”, and to gauge their work commitment.

Trust me. You have the Recruiting sixth sense. It’s inside of you, waiting to be developed. The key is to listen and know when and how to use probing questions.

Patience young grasshopper. In due time your recruiting intuition will come.
