Recruitment Target

svandana9 · #1 (**permalink**) 25-06-2008, 01:39 PM

Hi

Please throw light on recruitement revenue issue.

one of my friend is working in recruitment consultancy. That is new set up and having only two employees as recruiter.

He has been given target of Rs. 4 lac in one month. That means with the help of one recruiter who is just fresher not trained he has to generate revenue of Rs. 4 lac. and also has to do Business Development for that Recruitment Consultancy.

and Every month they will have to double it.

Is it possible? Is the kind of target and work load is given to him achievable ?

According to my opinion it is not possible.

Please give suggestions so that i could pass on to him.

Thanks & Regards,

Vandana Sharma

Hi vandana,

i think it all depends on the profile of ur freind who is been given this work. because unless some is experienced and handled recruitments, the consultancy wont' be giving them such targets. its not difficult for a person to do so, if he has sound database and profiles of candidates.

Hi, Its simly impossible Vandana. Even today well trained Recruiters are not able to achieve Rs. 2 Lacs target with Business Development, expecting same from freshers is nothing but a rubbish thing.

I have own Management Consultancy & above thing is based on my personal exprience.

Deepak is right as well.

Really his boss might be from Sales and Marketing( Insurance) beacuse these guys talk unethical and unpragmatic concepts( DCRs,Funnel Reports) many more.
HR has nothing to do with this.Mostly Insurance guyss opening Consultancy having these notions.

I agree with Sneha that too if in IT recruitments. But you never know.

Still I don't understand why high profile targets?.............

It’s absolutely unfair but once in blue moon if any recruiter achieves such unrealistic target that does not mean you set up such target forever. Normally in consultancy firm the target is vary from 4 to 10 times of the salary being paid to recruiter. I strongly advise your friend to change job with another professionally managed recruitment firm. Many of the recruitment firm strait away gives 20%-30% of the revenue. If your friend is capable of achieving 4 lac per month probably he would earn anything between 80K to 120k per month. Any way this is my personal opinion which others may differ it.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi

Its depends on the geography ,terms they are working etc.

If the location where he is sitting is a metro and his terms is 12.5/16.67 % somewhat it can be duable .

Also he must have atleast 10 clients in his hand.otherwise it is an unrealistic target which nobody can do it.

Hi to all

Thanks to Sadhna,Deepak, Sneha, Fiza,Ravanur,Devnandha, Senthil.

Thanks for giving your suggesstions and sharing your experiences.

I will suggest my friend either to look for other Job and before joining any firm must be aware of such things.

or another alternate he can discuss with his boss about his achievable target.

Thanks once again.

i trhink that ur friend don't think that what target they r going to give him he must have to think over it and leave the job immediately since he have to leave it cause at afresher level achiveing a target of 4 lac rs in a month is a very difficult task.
