    49. The Three Things That Fix Your Sales Outreach

    Recruitment has spent the last decade quietly talking itself out of selling. The story goes that recruitment is now a marketing job, that automation and AI can carry the load, that outreach is something you schedule rather than something you do. The result? A generation of consultants who have watched their sales capability erode without noticing it happen, hiding in the noise and calling it strategy. Meanwhile, the market has gotten harder. Your prospects field over 240 unsolicited emails a day. Half the salespeople on the planet are behind target because, frankly, they can't sell, and they've made peace with being forgettable. If you've ever sent the third email, heard nothing back, and quietly given up, this episode is aimed squarely at you. In it, Jeremy makes the case for putting human-to-human selling back at the center of how you win business, and hands you three components that decide whether your outreach lands or vanishes into the slop. Get them right, in the right order, and you stop blending in. You start living in your prospect's head. You become the person they think of first when a problem surfaces. No new skill set required. No clever automation. Just a willingness to do the work most of your competitors have stopped doing, and the difference that makes to relationships that turn into revenue. Press play if you're ready to be remembered by high-value clients. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.

    48. The Antidote to Micromanagement

    The Great Abdication in recruitment right now is driven by weak management. Right now, "Treating People Like Adults" Is killing your performance culture. In this episode, Jeremy Snell confronts one of the most shared, most repeated complaints in modern work: the dislike of being micromanaged. Scroll any feed and the articles are everywhere. Sit in enough interviews and you will hear it again and again, consultants explaining that they are looking for a new role because the last one micromanaged them. Jeremy gets it. For a genuinely strong performer, micromanagement is suffocating. But he draws a sharp line that most of this conversation misses. When many people say they do not like being micromanaged, what they actually mean is they do not like being managed at all. Those are very different things, and conflating them has consequences across recruitment. That confusion has rippled into leadership. Managers, terrified of the micromanager label, hold back from the very things that would lift performance. Hesitation breeds tolerance. The moment we tolerate substandard behaviour, activity, or results, we endorse it. Jeremy calls this the great abdication: the quiet letting go of ownership by leaders who can see exactly what their recruitment agency needs, yet watch it slip away. In this episode, Jeremy explores: Why "we treat everyone like adults" often signals an absence of coaching culture, not the presence of maturityThe critical difference between goals, which we coach to, and standards, which we hold people accountable toWhy "I know what I'm doing" is frequently a defence mechanism rather than evidence of competenceWhat happens to a business when leaders stop holding the line, and the cost of consultants who stay inconsistentThe simple antidote that turns accountability into something owned by the team, not imposed on itListen if you lead a team where: results are inconsistent, standards slip quietly, and "next week will be better" has become the running excuse.

    47. Career Catfishing and Why Companies Fail to Hire

    Talent teams see volume and call it abundance. Hiring managers feel powerless. Candidates are bruised into transactional behaviour. The result is a mirage - a hiring market that looks functional on the surface and breaks down at the point of placement. In this episode, Jeremy unpacks why direct hiring is failing more often than internal teams admit, and what recruiters need to do about it. Volume has decoupled from quality. AI-enhanced CVs, AI-screened applications, and AI-written job specs are creating a feedback loop that hides real talent and surfaces look-alikes. What you'll take away: The difference between an applicant and a candidate, and how to use it in client conversationsWhy hiring managers feel toothless even when they are seniorThe data that proves direct hiring is breaking downA reframe of agency value: candidate control and deal creation are now premium skills, not commodity adminThe numbers that matter: 57% of applicants abandon a process that feels like it's going nowhere44% of candidates hold multiple offers in play34% of Gen Z accept a job and don't turn up on day one35% of accepted offers are reneged on (Gartner)60% know the job is a bad fit at the point of acceptanceThe finish line is the start date, not the signed contract. Human recruitment has now gone up to a premium - and this episode shows you how to prove it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.

    46. The Lost Art of Headhunting

    Why most "headhunting" today isn't headhunting at all  and what to do instead. Jeremy Snell unpacks the difference between true headhunting and the icky, mass-produced LinkedIn outreach that's come to wear the same name. Drawing on his executive search experience from the mid-90s (when headhunting was a telephone contact sport and being on the receiving end actually felt flattering), he makes the case that the craft hasn't died. It's just been buried under bad messaging, low response rates, and an over-reliance on people who've already decided to become candidates. If you're a recruiter relying on organic replies to in-mail blasts and reporting "low candidate interest" back to clients, this one's for you. What you'll hear Why the word "headhunter" has been diluted, and how that hurts both recruiters and the people they're trying to engageThe difference between sourcing candidates and engaging individuals who haven't yet decided to become candidatesThe "icky message" problem: why generic outreach trains the market to ignore youWhy response rates aren't a reflection of the market. They're a reflection of your messagingThe job-hugging epidemic and why perceived risk has roughly doubled in the last 12 monthsWhy the phone still beats asynchronous channels for genuine engagement, and why most recruiters avoid itA real example of a phone-led approach turning a non-candidate into a candidate mid-call------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.

    45. How to Prevent Counter Offers

    Counter-Offers Are Rising. Here's Why You're Losing Candidates at Two Minutes to Midnight. Counter-offer loss is climbing again - and it's not a money problem. It's an emotional one, dressed up as logic. In this episode, I unpack why recruiters are bleeding placements at offer stage, and why the fix sits at the start of the process, not the end. We cover the three forces driving the spike: a volatile market making candidates anxious, employers fighting harder to retain productive people, and compromised processes creating buyer remorse before day one. You'll learn: Why counter-offers are an endorsement, not a failure — and what that changesThe five-stage candidate confidence journey from first call to first dayThree power tools to run before any CV leaves your desk: the Values Deep Dive, the Motivation Grid, and the Ecology CheckThe Tension Ladder — a weekly health check that tells you who will actually resignThe two-number scoring system that kills false-positive pipelinesWhy "when they counter-offer you" beats "if" every timeIf you've ever heard "I just need to think about it" and felt the deal slipping, this one's for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.

    44. Recruitment Isn't Black and White

    Are Your Consultants Doing the Job - or Just Completing It? There's a crisis running through recruitment businesses right now. Consultants are drifting. Not because they're lazy, but because the conversations around their work have become binary. Did you call? Did you advertise? Have you done the database? Done doesn't mean done well. In this episode, Jeremy explores the difference between executing a task and mastering it, and why that distinction is costing agencies some of their best people. When consultants can't see a pathway to genuine improvement, the striving stops. Billings plateau. People leave. The fix isn't more pressure. It's better questions. How well did you search LinkedIn? How well did you qualify that job? How well did you leave that voicemail? Jeremy introduces the concept of levels of capability, why most experienced consultants are operating at a fraction of what's possible, and the three maturity stages every recruiter moves through: infant, teenager, and adult. If your one-to-ones sound like a checklist, this episode is for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine - The People Engine For The Recruitment Industry.

    43. How to Stop Being Transactional in Recruitment

    Recruiters are told the job is about relationships. Nobody explains what that means or how to build one with intent. In this episode, Jeremy Snell breaks down the difference between being liked and being trusted, and gives you a five-level roadmap for moving clients from casual contact to genuine partnership. The Five Levels of Trust Level 1: Entry Trust. Access without influence. Small talk and common ground. Most "good relationships" sit here.Level 2: Functional Trust. Execution permission. You get jobs with conditions attached and compete against two or three others.Level 3: Diagnostic Trust. They seek your judgment. Exclusivity and retained work start here.Level 4: Inner Circle Trust. Full influence. You frame decisions and challenge thinking before the brief is written.Level 5: Partnership Trust. Shared ownership of outcomes. Extreme loyalty and long-term value.The Diagnostic Test Write down your ten strongest client relationships. Then ask each of them for theirs. If you are not on their list, you have work to do.

    42. Personal Commitments - Standards and Goals

    Recruitment can be thankless at times. What feels like hard work and effort doesn’t always translate into results. But are we doing the right things? Are we being distracted by other work and slowly losing sight of the things that matter? When you are responsible for your own results it’s important you have clarity on three things - the standards you choose to adopt, the goals you set for yourself and the data you track to help keep you on the right path. This episode is all about self accountability, self awareness and how to find those who can hold you in check with the promises you make out loud. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Your People Engine Delivering context-rich learning and development initiatives for all levels of people in recruitment.
