Tuesday is happy day

Great day to day. Made 2 deals (1 replacement so no fee) and both were great. Remember a couple days ago I had mentioned I had helped a client with a problem with a candidate they got on there own. Well, they hired my candidate instead. How cool. KARMA baby! I have been really pushing hard the last few days and have gotten tons of interviews set up and have about 6 more to get scheduled this week. I may hit an all time number of 1st time interviews like 40+ this month. I want to talk a little bit about marketing. I really do not have a problem marketing in fact it seems like every marketing call I make i could get a job order if I wanted to. Here is the question: What do you say for the "Send me a resume" objection? I have heard a lot of good stuff over the years like: " are you hiring him for his resume?" "Great I will have it hand delivered tomorrow by the candidate" or "What did I tell you to make you ask for a resume?". These are all good, but, My personal favorite is " Mr. Employer, I have been doing this for a long time and there is only 3 reason why someone asks me for a resume. 1. They have an interest and want more info. 2. they here this from recruiters then when they meet or talk to the guy they realize the recruiter was inflating the guys experience and 3. You really have no interest but, you are to nice of a guy to go tell me to pound sand. So which is it?" This works 99% of the time and even if they do not have an opening it results in a good conversation that can lead to more down the road. Well have a great night and remember. Feel free to ask any questions, I will answer them.
