  • Excellent Content for Recruitment Agency Owners

    I’m not much of a podcast person, but I’m a huge fan of the resilient recruiter. I stumbled across this podcast when I first opened my agency and was looking for guidance. Every episode provides new tidbits that I regularly apply to my company. I usually finish the episodes feeling inspired and excited about what I can accomplish. I’d recommend this for anyone in recruiting, but especially for agency owners.

The Employee-Owned Recruitment Agency: How to Turn Recruiters Into Owners, with Mark Waschek and Scott Wedel
Q: How does someone become a shareholder?
A recruiter must reach $240,000 in placement revenue over a trailing 12-month period, after which the board may invite them to buy shares. The purchase is made with after-tax money, and the share price is calculated from recent profitability and the number of outstanding shares.
