My 9 Reasons to be a Recruiter

My 9 Reasons to be a Recruiter

Horizons® Bulgaria · A Recruiter’s Perspective

Why I Choose to Be a Recruiter

Recruiter as a profession in Bulgaria has evolved a lot in the last 15 years — from an administrative role a small number of lucky ones could access, to something now more sought-after than trader or manager. Finding a good, experienced recruiter today is almost as hard as hiring a programmer or software engineer.

My reasons, part one

Influence, impact, and income

1. I have influence on people’s destinies

I can help many people get a better career and change their life for good — advising on the job market and the right time for a change, and giving perspective from above.

2. I have direct business influence

I have the power to attract the best professionals and give my client priority against competitors — quietly, but tangibly, shaping the key positions in every industry.

3. I can earn well

Recruiting is among the high-paying jobs. The best recruiters know how to deliver results, attract the right professionals, negotiate well, and earn accordingly.

My reasons, part two

Freedom, flexibility, and growth

4. I can define when and how to work

I can choose which projects to accept and organize my work in the way that suits me best.

5. I can work from anywhere

A smartphone, laptop, and video calls are enough — I no longer need face-to-face interviews for every project, wherever in the world I am.

6. I can learn and grow

Working with the best companies across the hottest industries, I get access to dozens of businesses, hundreds of managers, and thousands of specialists.

My reasons, part three

Enjoyment, trust, and mastery

7. I can enjoy myself

Events, conferences, meetings, and cocktail parties — as a social animal, I meet the most interesting and competent professionals.

8. I am trustworthy and professional

I know how to keep a secret and stay discreet, apply business ethics, and keep my word — often knowing what’s happening in the business before others do.

9. I keep getting better

I learn from peers, mentor new team members, and share my experience. Daily challenges train my nerves and make me a better person and professional.

Therefore, again and again, I would choose to be a recruiter. You could choose this career too — and do it with Horizons Bulgaria. If you lack the courage, become our customer instead and work with our premium recruiters and consultants!
