Dear seniors,

I have 3 years of work experience as a faculty in ORACLE and SAP-ABAP. Currently, I am pursuing the final semester of MBA (HRD) through distance learning. I would like to transition into IT recruitment. What technical skills are required to become an IT Recruiter?

Please kindly suggest to me.

Hi Suresh,

IT recruitments is a vast field. I shall try to list down the basics which I think should give you a headstart:

1- A basic understanding of the IT domain, e.g., process flows from getting a requirement to designing a software package, the components that go into it. To simplify - If you were asked to recruit a SAP consultant, you would need to know first if you had to recruit a Technical or a Functional consultant.

2- Technical Jargons - understand what the software lingo is all about - programming, development, support maintenance, front-end technologies, backend technologies, etc. To start with, any recruitment person with a non-tech background needs to at least understand the basic flow of the technological process.

3- At least attempt to get familiar with most of the technologies in the market - e.g., Microsoft, Embedded, Mobile Apps, ERP, etc. (depending on the kind of IT vertical you would like to handle).

4- Hierarchical structures, i.e., an IT designation and job profiling are different from a non-IT setup. Hypothetical example - An AM-HR in a manufacturing company would be a very senior experienced person with at least 10 years of minimum experience; on the contrary, in the IT world, it could be a person with 3-4 years of experience.

5- With a little hands-on experience, a recruitment person will be able to understand the market, the business cycles, the salary parity, etc.

6- Ability to communicate (verbal/non-verbal) effectively is a must for a good recruitment professional.

In addition to the above, a lot of soft skills are equally important as this profession deals with getting the right man for the right job.

Hi Deepthi,

I am Deepthi, and I am new to this forum. I am working as a Technical Recruiter in Hyderabad. We have our own H1's that I need to market. I would like to know which field in recruiting is better - Marketing or Recruiting. Please let me know.

Hey Deepthi,

Both recruitment and marketing are equally challenging. For marketing, you need to contact to place your consultants, which you will get from recruitment. You will have a better hold if you work on recruitment and then move to sales.

Hi Suresh,

In IT recruitment companies, firstly you will be starting as a fresher even if you have 3 years of experience. If you are strong technically, it should not be difficult to join companies like Artech or FCS. These are large companies that hire freshers and provide training on technologies and roles as needed.

You also need to decide whether you want to focus on domestic or US recruitments. If you are considering the monetary aspect, US recruitments would be the best choice. Deserving candidates can earn as much as 50k to 1.5 lac per month, depending on their experience and skills.

If you would like to learn more about recruitments, please feel free to email me.

Dear Renu,

Hope you are hale and hearty. Thanks for the valuable information you have provided. I have just started my career with a recruitment consultancy and have only 4 months of experience in this industry. At the moment, I recruit for logistics and insurance, but I am looking to transition to a technical or IT Recruiter role.

I am willing to work as a fresher in the IT domain. I would appreciate it if you could guide me on what steps I need to take for this transition. Additionally, please recommend some companies and consultancies that specialize in IT recruitments and hire freshers.

I am eagerly awaiting your valuable response.

Hey, I have done B.TECH in Electronics and Communication. I want to know about SAP. Everyone says that SAP is a growing and demanding field, and you can get a good salary in this field. Could you please tell me something about a career in SAP and which one is better: SAP or IT recruiter (US process)? I am confused about both of these fields and which one to choose.

And which module is best in SAP.

Dear Seniors,

At last, finally, I have seen this post. I am an HR non-IT recruiter with 2 years of experience. Now, I am looking for a job change as an IT Recruiter because there are so many vacancies available. My question is simple: Do I have to learn Java, Linux, .Net programs, and other domains to become an IT recruiter in these areas?

Kindly reply to me, please.

I have completed an MBA with a specialization in HR and Marketing. I have been trying to secure a job in companies as an HR executive, but I have not had any success. As a result, I worked in a recruitment firm from September '13 to February '14. However, I had to leave the job due to some personal issues. Now, I am seeking to join a company even as an HR trainee, but I am only receiving job offers as a recruiter in consulting firms. I am keen on joining a corporate company rather than a consultancy. I appeal to the seniors for help in making a decision as I need to finalize my choice today. I currently have a job offer from a consulting firm, and they expect me to start on Monday. However, the offer comes with a lower salary due to the gap in my employment from February to June in Patna. I am unsure whether I should wait for an opportunity from a corporate company or accept the offer from the consulting firm. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Friends,

Currently, I am working as an IT recruiter and am looking for a job change in corporate companies. Recently, I attended an interview at an MNC company for an IT recruiter position. During the interview, the interviewer asked me some questions to which I was unable to provide answers. I would appreciate your help with these questions:

1. How will you source profiles if you receive a niche skill set requirement that is not available in the market?
2. What are the challenges you have faced in recruitment?
3. How can you identify a fake candidate while sourcing genuine candidate profiles?
4. What are the latest IT technologies available in the market?
5. What are the latest trends in recruitment and selection processes?
6. What is Headhunting, and how is it done?

Please provide answers to these questions as it will help me prepare for my next interview.

Thank you,
Prasad
