Choke Point 4: Going Direct — Take Control, Cut Out the Middlemen
In recruitment, hiring decisions often come down to one thing: comfort. Employers assess compatibility, culture, and value far beyond just your CV. But what if the blocker to your next role isn’t your skills—it’s the recruiter in the middle?
Most recruiters control access to opportunities and influence offers, including salary. Did you know that by bypassing recruiters, you could secure a salary that’s 27% higher than through traditional routes? Recruiter fees, often around 23%- 30%, are built into the offer—lowering your base salary and future growth potential.
With over 1 billion profiles on LinkedIn alone, and companies investing more in internal talent management, businesses are increasingly going direct to secure top talent, without relying on recruiters. It’s time you did the same.
Delivered over 3 personalised 2-hour sessions this workshop teaches you how to become your own headhunter, researcher & mapper, positioning yourself directly into companies. By mastering this approach, you’ll be more in control of your current and future choice of role, cutting out the middleman, and avoiding the “numbers game”—leading to faster, more lucrative job opportunities.
