Good Headhunting with The Headhuntress
Good Headhunting with The Headhuntress Good Headhunting with The Headhuntress The Headhuntress stays true to the recruiting business.A recruiter watching the show will say over and over again, Its just like that and That always happens. Its worth putting on your DVR, if only to give your spouse a glimpse into your what you deal with every day.About half of the show is dedicated to job coachingand counseling candidates. On the debut of The Headhuntress, she coaches a former porn actor and a hapless women that professes a faith in numerology. The emphasis on job coaching may just be for TV the general public will appreciate that more than the part about taking job orders and filling reqs. Wendy has some fun tricks for coaching candidates, including going up and down in an elevator with a candidate while she performs a literal elevator pitch. In another scene straight out of The Kings Speech, she coaches an introverted candidate until he is yelling Im a Winner at the top of his voice. Her best advice of the first show was, however, given to her staff. She prods them into following up with candidates by saying You have to keep close to your talent. To fill a job and close candidates, she says to pretend your life depends on it. Its that kind of sage headhunting advice that has probably never seen the outside of an office, much less the light of semi-primetime TV.If youhaventseen the first episode, I wont spoil it for you. However, her client does end up giving her some high praise Good headhunting Its at that moment that Wendy, like any recruiter, is transfixed the brief,transcendentmoment when the candidates talent is the headhunters, before they are again at zero and its time to just fill another job. The Headhuntress truthfullydocumentsthe ups and downs of the headhunting business, and at least on the first show, I thought there were more ups than downs.
