A good employee is always a good asset to the company. No doubt! But hiring the perfect employee is no easy task. Choosing that one perfect application from the stack of a zillion takes a lot more than just checking the technical knowledge and background of a candidate. It all depends on the qualities of a good recruiter. So, what makes a good recruiter?
1. Communication- The recruiter should be an expert here. Apart from being able to extract every hidden motive of the probable candidate, he should be able to convey clearly the visions of the company. The candidate understands the company through you. The way you say, the way he perceives. Mind it!
2. Understanding of the roles that the company is hiring for- Hiring a candidate for a particular role is no child’s play. The recruiter should first have no doubts about the role he is hiring for. For a candidate who is good at marketing may not be good at promotional sales.
3. Strong understanding of the domain- Domain knowledge of a recruiter to a job-hunter is like Batmobile to a Batman. No one would take a job if he/she realises that he knows more than the recruiter. For though one looks for a job to contribute in the growth of a company, he also looks for the scope of learning and his personal growth.

4. Ability to empathise with the candidate- The candidate would be scared to death during the interview session, no matter how many confidence boosting videos he saw. The recruiter should acknowledge that and make him comfortable enough so that he can take the recruiter in confidence enough to show him his true self. And a good employee is always a unique employee, true to his colours.
5. Ability to maintain a relationship with the candidate- Often recruiters ignore this. It is an extremely short-sighted view that if a candidate is rejected, he is not suitable for the company at all. What one tends to forget is that a company runs on several roles, each different than the other. Even though you might not want to hire him now, in future you might. Maintain a relationship with the candidate throughout the entire process of hiring.
