How to work with recruiters

Working with a recruiter like Morson Canada can be the most efficient way to find your next job.

A career move is exciting – but it can also be daunting. We know you have a great deal at stake. That’s why we take the time to make certain your move will be as smooth and seamless as possible. We do the research that’s needed – and put our industry experience and expertise to work, to find solutions that make the most of your talent.

Whether you're looking for a contract or permanent opportunity, our guide below takes you through how to make the most out of working with a recruiter like Morson Canada.

Tell us exactly what you want

The first most important factor to get right is to explain where you currently are in your career and be specific about your next steps. Make sure the recruiter knows firstly what skills and experience you have in your field and secondly, what new role you are looking for. This includes details such as your salary expectations, the scope of the role, location and type of company etc.

By making all of the above information clear from day one, you avoid the risk of wasting the recruiters and most importantly, your own time.

We pride ourselves on our personal approach. Therefore we want to get to know you, so that we can find you a role that is the right technical and cultural fit.

Communicate

Good communication during the recruitment process is key, and this works both ways. Make sure you reply to all emails, return calls and keep the recruiter updated on your situation. You never know, that missed call may be the ticket to your new job!
