Not to create a great debate over me being a JB Recruiter, But a recruiter not taking no for an answer would make him a great recruiter, not the worst recruiter in the world. A recruiter who took no for an answer the first time a driver said it wouldnt last 2 weeks.
Anyone with any sort of sales background would know that about 80% of all sales are made after the first "NO". Thats no different than recruiting. About 80% of my hires are made after the driver says the first "NO".
Example: just in the last two days, I have set up 7 drivers with on a class B job. The majority of those calls started out with the drivers saying something like "Is this JB again, I told you people I only had a class B so no you cant hire me" Not many people know we do have some class b local jobs. Should I have taken "no" for their answer, or should I have said, "Wait, I have a class B job"? We might have called them 100 times before and not had a thing to offer him.
