Recruitment is an industry not well known about in the Armed Forces where Service Leavers follow other Service Leavers into roles such as Oil & Gas, Maritime Security, Health & Safety etc. When we approach people offering FREE training and on completion we will arrange interviews with the prospect of earning a 6 figure salary within a few short years, people are naturally going to be suspicious!!!

We encourage everyone who is thinking of completing the academy to do their own research, they will then see it is a growth industry, a challenging role with unlimited earning capacity. “Why is your unique offering being so well received by recruitment companies?” – Traditionally companies when looking to hire new talent go down the graduate route, however, new Graduates or entrants into the industry do not full appreciate the challenges and demands of being a success in recruitment, they may have 2-3 interviews, but they will not know if recruitment is for them and what to expect until they start the role. We are delivering candidates from the Armed Forces who know EXACTLY what to expect as they have completed the recruitment academy which is designed for them to have a complete overview of the role and with the role-playing, the initial skills on how to approach and call clients and candidates and how to deal with objections, on top of this they have the life skills which will help them settle in a lot quicker. The training is designed to allow the trainee to accelerate their professional development, leading to earlier promotion & responsibilities which benefits all parties. “What is the success rate of people completing the academy securing a role” – when we started the academy is was as low as 4 in 10 as we were not identifying and qualifying our candidates as well as we could have and did not have a full appreciation on what our clients were looking for, however over the last 8 months, this is now 8 in 10, we are learning all the time, have made mistakes, which is expected in a unique concept, but have learnt from this, but more impressive is our retention rate which is close to 90%, this is down to the trainees showing their commitment to move into the industry following a process than can take a few weeks, coupled with identifying, training and delivering the right candidates to the industry. “What Qualifications and experience do I need?” – Desirable but Not essential, we will look at individuals as individuals and if you have no formal qualifications but demonstrate the right attitude, aptitude and possess the personal skills and desire to succeed and have a natural talent to building business relationships from scratch in business then we want to talk with you. “What can I expect to earn?” – Recruitment is a commission driven business, therefore starting salary between £18-£28K dependant on location and the industry that you work in. Expect to earn between £30-£45K+ in your first year, and will see this raise 20-30% year on year. It is not unheard of for recruiters to be earning a six figure salary within a few short years, it is totally down to each individual. “What are the long term prospects” – Career progression not limited to time but your ability to deliver, quickly lead to Team Leader, Manager, Director, Share Options, work abroad, set up your own company “Why are ex Forces personnel sought after to work in recruitment?” – Transferable skills e.g. Accelerated learning curve, Resiliant, Good Communication & Listening skills, Team Players, Determined & Resilient, think out of the box mentality etc. “How does the Training Work and how long will it take” Training will take around 20 hours on-line, and then 2-3 hours role-playing via Skype and telephone.
