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.

You know you are a recruiter when you find yourself daydreaming when the candidate is talking about what project he/she worked on a decade ago which is completely irrelevant to any role that you would EVER have available.

You know your a recruiter when you know the people in your life better than they know they know themselves. Or know your date before you go out. (Bad Google habit) ;-)
