Profile Information

Name: Katie Kleisner

Job Title: Manager

Company: Baker Tilly Search & Staffing

Which best describes your profession?: Recruiter

How many years have you been in the business?: 5-9 years

Which industries do you work in now?: Financial

How many employees in your company?: >50

Which conferences do you plan to attend in the next year?: NAPS

What kind of networking are you open to?: Open networking, Referrals between friends, Very targeted/niche, Invitation only

How do you introduce yourself to people you meet in business?: I help people change their lives for the better. No really, I'm just a recruiter. My niche is accounting and finance direct-hire placement at all levels. I assist individuals looking to enhance their situation as well as companies seeking top talent.

Name someone you most admire: In business, anyone that values integrity and passion.

Which blogs would you recommend people read?: Scott Love.

What recruiting tools can you not live without?: My phone, of course and a computer. I believe in having a good tracking system for everything so a database is helpful (if you use it correctly), a planner, and a way to check yourself against your goals. It's a numbers business as much as it's a relationship business.

What do you like best about RecruitingBlogs.com...: It's nice to know there are other people experiencing the same issues as myself. If you keep an open mind, you can learn from anyone in this business regardless of how long they've been recruiting.

...and what would you change and why?: Barb Bruno says it best, "So what, now what"? I love that because people want to work with positive people that don't crumble when faced with challenges.

I'd like to discuss what any of you found valuable from Barb's sessions. I have a few things in mind to implement and I'm wondering if anyone out there has tried any of her ideas/practices.

Has anyone else out there implemented any of Scott Love's ideas? Two years ago, I wrote down the one thing that was holding me back from my own success. I forgot that I had done that until I saw Scott again yesterday and I did the same thing again. Two years later, that one thing is not longer controlling me and I increased my personal production by 52% over last year. It's interesting what you can figure out about yourself if you can be brutally honest. Wondering if anyone else has any success… Continue
