"Luck is an accident that happens to the competent."- Albert M. Greenfield This week marked my 1st work anniversary at ICONMA —a mix of pride and excitement. However, it also brought my first setback - the very next day after completing one year I had my first Back Out - leaving me grappling with feelings of dismay and questioning my competency. Does my lack of luck reflect my competency, or is luck just enigmatic? Recruitment isn't a walk in the park. You get many roles that differ vastly from their descriptions - You learn the divergence in the client call. You work hard, be patient, and submit the best you get to the client and the requirement gets closed. Is this enough to shake the confidence in our comprehension and hard work? You invest in candidates, and foster relationships, yet there's always the risk of losing them to a better offer. Is this enough to shake our credibility and the rapport we meticulously build from the 1st call? Despite all these odds, you place many candidates successfully and there is your 1st Back out, despite diligence, a harsh reality even though it's anticipated. It HURTS!! Even being a Psychology student, understanding human behavior feels intricate. But dwelling on disappointment won't alter the situation. Let's channel this into harder work and increase our chances of coaxing luck onto our side. #workanniversary #recruitment #recruiting #usstaffing #corporate #hardwork #motivation #recruiterlife #recruiter
