Thankfully, working with a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livecareer.com\/resources\/careers\/planning\/how-to-find-a-recruiter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">remote recruiter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can help you level up your search. Working with recruiters in the wake of COVID-19 is definitely different than it was previously. The pandemic\u2019s impact has affected businesses around the globe, and the norms of hiring and recruiting have changed. What are some of the perks of working with a recruiter virtually?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with a recruiter gives you the opportunity to:<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Narrow down your job search by easily finding roles that match your requirements.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expand your network quickly thanks to the recruiter\u2019s connections.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Streamline the process of getting a job interview.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that recruiters have a stake in making sure a job is a good fit for you, but they aren\u2019t career coaches. Rethink the idea of working with a recruiter if you\u2019re still figuring out what your ideal job position would be. Most recruiters can\u2019t help you unless you know your ideal career path already. Here are some tips for working with a recruiter online seamlessly:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>1) Leverage your personal and professional contacts<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reach out to personal and professional contacts\u2014 friends, family, previous employers, mentors, and your university alumni network. Maybe they can introduce you to any recruiters based on their experiences. Mutual connections help create a strong start in a recruiter relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2) Evaluate recruiters based on your own criteria<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if someone is highly recommended, do your own research before you work with any recruiter. Realizing how recruiters find candidates can help you increase your chances of finding the right job quickly. Consider if the recruiter is organized and tech-savvy. Also, be sure the recruiter is professional, responsive, and makes sure he\/she has your best interest in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3) Keep in touch with recruiters on LinkedIn<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recruiters use LinkedIn to find candidates using keywords that relate to background information such as work history, job title, and university. Be sure your profile is helping them find you. Ask yourself if your LinkedIn profile is optimized with the right keywords. Did you change your LinkedIn settings to notify recruiters that you\u2019re open to opportunities? Are you an active participant in LinkedIn Groups related to your industry? Are your skills\/endorsements sections updated?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>4) Find recruiters who understand your niche<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding a recruiter who fully understands the nuances of your industry is time-consuming but worth it. Working with a recruiter is a smart move for goal-oriented job seekers. Some of the best recruiters tend to be niche, industry-focused recruiters. Remember, only working with non-specialized recruiters on Linkedin has limitations. Use recruiter directories that help you find skilled recruiters who understand your niche.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>5) Foster positive relationships with recruiters<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get in front of as many recruiters as possible to increase your chances of success. Recruiters know you\u2019re working with multiple different people, but don\u2019t make it obvious. Avoid mistakes by using an organizational method to manage information about the recruiters you\u2019re working with so you don\u2019t mix them up. Prove you remember small details about your interactions with your recruiters. This will help strengthen your relationship with every recruiter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re new to working with recruiters, don\u2019t be disappointed if your efforts aren\u2019t paying off in the beginning. When you build meaningful, professional relationships with recruiters over time, you&#8217;ll start to see how beneficial the partnership can be.
