The interim market swings in favour of quality interim professionals. Top interim professionals know how in demand they are, what their offering is, the value they bring to an assignment and the legacy they leave behind.

It’s important to keep abreast of what’s going on, but not be overwhelmed by it. I use a variety of methods to keep myself educated:

Most businesses will use a contingent workforce, made up of freelancers, consultants, temporary workers, and interim professionals.

Your recruitment partner, be that internal or external, should be your guide on this. Sometimes it is easy to identify from a CV.

This will differ from consultancy to consultancy, job to job, level of seniority of role etc.

Quite simply a Recruitment Consultant is someone who focuses specifically on recruiting and all their activities are dedicated to this process.

I could spend a very long time answering this so I’m going to focus on a few key areas which, in my opinion, are the foundation blocks of the recruitment process.

If you’ve been using a temporary agency or consultancy worker, you may decide you would like to employ them on a permanent basis.

Interim professionals charge a day rate based on their track record, experience, seniority level and the value the business will receive from that interim solution.

Depending on your experience, you may view recruitment businesses as a necessary evil or a vital part in helping to secure the right candidate for you.
