A Day in the Life of a Recruiter: What the Role Really Looks Like
Share

Welcome to Progressing Careers Everywhere, a podcast brought to you by Amoria Group. 

In this series, we explore what life is like for those who work as consultants, from the first weeks of training to the life-changing success stories that can be achieved, all from the people who work in this industry every day. 

In Episode 2, Kai Pesch, Recruitment Consultant at Amoria Bond’s Amsterdam office, is joined by Benjamin Cole, Senior Recruitment Consultant, to take listeners behind the scenes of a typical day in the industry.  

Rather than talking in theory, this episode focuses on the reality of the role. Ben shares what a typical day actually looks like, how he balances candidates, clients and admin, and how priorities shift when the pressure is on. 

 

In this episode, you’ll hear about: 

  • What a typical day in the life of a consultant really looks like 

  • Which parts of the role are most rewarding, and which are most challenging 

  • How consultants balance candidates, clients and admin with limited time 

  • Tools, habits and routines that help stay organised and productive 

  • How priorities shift when working on tough roles or high-pressure projects
