What Are the Must-Have Skills for a Successful Recruitment Manager?

Hi,

Could someone shed some light on the prerequisites that a good recruitment manager must possess?

Hi,

Experience of full recruitment life cycle, high ability to understand the job requirements of the client, and competency in mapping consultant profiles against the requirements. Recruiters with excellent command over English should be sincere, very consistent in sourcing the best resumes in the least turnaround time. They should be proactive, highly energetic, target-driven, enthusiastic individuals with good communication skills (oral and written). Must be open to working long hours independently and delivering under intense pressure and high company expectations.
