46 Chromosomes. 23 Pairs. 1 nucleus. We all start the same way and yet something in your DNA is different...

...to that of most of your recruitment contemporaries. Isotope have always felt the same way. While we might look the same as other companies that have a similar offering, we’re different & so are you. But, what’s in your DNA that makes you feel so determined to succeed, so determined to ‘do better’ than you have already?

You might be able to nail it – you might be able to say that you are more driven, more aggressive, more determined or more this or more that than every other recruiter. You might even be lucky enough to be able to point to a track record of being better – higher billings, larger teams. Maybe other people have repeatedly told you that you are destined for something ‘greater’ – wasted in doing what you have been doing?

Whatever your environment, getting ‘ready’ to start your own recruitment venture is a slow burn business. It can take months, even years for your ambitions & ideas to come to the forefront of your mind & that means it can’t be planned, timetabled or scheduled. No one can tell you ‘now’ is the right time & no one can tell you it isn’t. Sometimes it can feel like it happens seemingly instantaneously but, you & I know both know that getting to the point of being ‘ready’, is a unique & lengthy journey that only you can travel.

Each business we launch is different, each recruiter work with had their own unique ‘eureka’ moment & every motivated Entrepreneur we talk with, starts a conversation with Isotope for a different reason. After all it’s all in the DNA & while your DNA might shout & scream at times, it tends to remain unaffected by the events of today or yesterday or even tomorrow. It’s not rash, it doesn’t panic & it certainly doesn’t make a knee-jerk decision based on a few events out of their control. So, if you feel ready to start your own business – great. If you don’t just yet, then don’t worry. But either way, why not let Isotope help you make the right decision at the right time armed with the right information. Heck, why not let us use our experience & our understanding of a Recruiters DNA to show you how certain events can spark that Entrepreneurial DNA inside of you to come to the forefront. Why not let Isotope show you that you can start a recruitment business as a result of either being pushed to, being pulled towards, or a weird & wonderful combination of the two. If we’ve learnt anything over the years it’s that whatever stage of life you find yourself, the entrepreneurial question should always be the same. Is now the right time?

Is now the right time?

You are PULLED

Within any given week, how often do you think about starting your own recruitment business? Once a week, twice a week, eight times a day?

Naturally enough if you’re serious about the prospect of your own recruitment venture, you’ll think about the idea at least once a day. At least! You have another great week - it could have been that placement you’ve been working on for weeks that finally comes to fruition, or you could have recorded another week of record GP or you could have found that new hirer for your own team that you so badly wanted. Whatever the milestone, it seems that each success pulls you back to the inevitable question – is now a good time?

You never know, perhaps now is the right time to pick up the ‘phone & talk to Isotope about the ideas & ambitions you have.

You are PUSHED

People always need jobs, companies always need support with their hiring & therefore recruitment agencies always need recruiters – right?

Despite the obvious links, employment within recruitment can be unstable at times. New owners can change the landscape of a company causing you to question your role within the agency; geographies can be shrunk, verticals halved & disciplines split causing you to question your earning potential within the agency; branches can be shut & the role you loved & gave your all too is now no longer there.

So, what next? Start again in another agency & wait until history repeats itself or take a stand, make a change & talk to Isotope about how you can capitalise on your experiences so far.

You are… both?

Let’s look at the Isotope history books for this one, shall we? A high percentage of the Recruitment Consultants we work with have reached the stage of being ‘ready’ to start their own agencies as a result of being both innately pulled & pushed to do so.

While they might have always wanted to venture out on their own, the supposed stability & security of their current role had always suppressed that desire. After all you can always think of a reason NOT to take the risk – whether it be the timing, the landscape of the market or personal circumstances, you can always talk yourself out of taking the leap.

But, if you’re open & honest with yourself, you know that if you pick up the ‘phone & talk to Isotope you’ll realise that perhaps now is the right time for you.
