You know you are a recruiter when...

So, instead of me writing a blog- I thought it would be great if the RBC Community wrote a blog. Make a comment by sending in your best one liner. Let's get as many as we can and then we can have Tim & Noel publish it. Be creative. I'll start it-

1) You know you are a recruiter when you find yourself eating lunch at your desk regularly so you can catch the candidate when they are available.

2) You know you're a recruiter when you go out on a first date and by the end of the evening you've learned his/her entire school and work history.

3) You think of dating as networking and networking as dating. Passive candidates are always the best for either.

5) When you go to a party, and come home with a pocket full of business cards, and the first thing you think of, is who can I call first?

you're know you're a recruiter when every time the phone rings, your spouse and kids either shut up or leave the room becaus that's "momma's money making time"

or when someone asks your 6 yr old daughter "what does your mommy do?" the answer is "she sells PEOPLE!"
