The 20 Best Pieces
of Advice Recruiters
Have Received
Talent acquisition leaders share the best words of wisdom
they’ve ever received from family, friends and colleagues.
“Manage candidate expectations.
Don't say something you don’t
mean and if you make a promise,
follow through.”
Kelly Ann Kuntz
Sourcing Recruiter
The Bergaila Companies
“Humanize the
process.”
Jer Langhans
Talent Director
WhitePages.com
“Work smart
and don't ever
compromise your ethics!”
Owen Williams
Director of Talent Acquisition
Belk
“Everybody in sales is a 'people-person’.
In my first interview out of college, an interviewer told me this
after I said one of my strengths was that I was a ‘people-person’.
Learned more from that than any other interview feedback since.”
Jonathan Garner
Corporate Recruiting Manager
Cloud Sherpas
“Be a leader,
not just a supervisor.”
Andy Kim
Talent Acquisition Partner
Trace3
“Some jobs just don't need
to be done. Move to
something more productive
and do not look back!”
Ken Dean
Talent Scout – Recruiter
Varian Medical Systems
“Be honest with everyone,
no matter how much the
truth may hurt.”
Dr. Nicholas Thomas
Assistant Professor
Iowa State University
“Be quiet and listen.
Don't offer more information
than what is needed.”
Cassandra Stewart-Wagner, SPHR
Recruiter
Healthcare Management Solutions, LLC
“You can't always control what
happens, you can control how you
react to it.” – Mom
Chevalier Francis
Technical Recruiter and Business Development
Business Control Systems
“Don't jump to conclusions;
review all sides before making
impactful decisions.”
Patsy Raveneau
Senior Consultant, Employee Relations
DNV GL
“Plan ahead in case you need
to prepare for the worst.”
Samantha Maldonado-Quiles
Talent Acquisition Recruiter
Foot Locker, Inc.
“Do you research, discover pain points,
have a solution. Then start at the top
when making that call to potential clients.”
Paul Alfred
Social Media Recruiting Consultant
PointClickCare
“Be honest and forthright with people. Hiding
the truth doesn't help anybody, especially not
yourself! Sugar coating a bad message or
over stating an accomplishment doesn't help
anybody not even the messenger.”
Fabien Desmangles
Recruiter
Dassault Systemes
“My father left me with many valuable pieces of advice, but the
one that sticks out the most is a joke: ‘What did the snail say
while riding on the back of a turtle? Whheee!!’
It's all about perspective! Keep yourself grounded and take the
time to try to understand the perspectives of others.
Dana DiStefano, SPHR
Manager, Talent Acquisition
Independence Blue Cross
“Consistency is key to success.”
Sabrina Crouch

human beings. Act accordingly.
Be honest, be nice!”

“Eat your vegetables.”
Dan Peters

when you're talking.”
Kristin Krause
Recruitment Specialist
GE Canada
“Follow your gut…
if it doesn't feel right, then
it probably isn't right!”
Amy Fischer
Talent Acquisition Associate
The Andersons, Inc.
“Never get comfortable!”
