Candidate attraction

Our Networks Referrals

Each consultant at COREcruitment has a niche area that they work in, and withinthisnicheareathey are partofmanydifferentnetwork groups. Consultants use these network groups to their advantage. As we’ve mentioned,referralsarea big part of our candidate attraction and good people know good people. Consultants make aconscious effort to attend any relevant networking events, so when wesay theyknowtheindustry insideout-theyreallydo!

Working within these niche areas alsomeansconsultants are constantly working on similar roles. Therefore, consultants knowas soonas theyreceiveavacancywhois available, who would be suitable andwhomayhavea referral.

Some of our top candidates are known as ‘passive candidates’ which means theyarenot actively looking but we always keep an eye out for them and contact them if any suitable roles comeup.

We have a target at COREcruitment that 40% of our placed candidates will come via referrals and recommendations – good people tend to know good people. We actively incentivisecandidatestoput us in touch with their friends / colleagues and contacts to find a higher number of ‘passivejob seekers’.

More recently our focus has been on using social media to attract candidates. We see this as being a key area of growth for us as a business and 12 months ago we appointed an inhouse web development and SEO specialist to manage our social networks and on-linepresence.

Social Media

It is important to embrace social networks as part of any business’s recruitment strategy. COREcruitment has adopteda2-tierstrategy:with morerecruitment orientated wearemoregeared towards actively networking with potential candidates; on networks that are more socialbynaturewe

International team

Irene Garcia Bedoya – Head of Operations - EUROPE

After finishing her Bachelor's degree in Hotel Management, she moved around the world working in hospitality until she found her home in Amsterdam. She took a break from the industry, but it was short-lived. Passion always returns!

Beatrice Forest-Valentine - EUROPE & INT'L

Beatrice joined the COREcruitment team in November 2012 and successfully completed our in house training program. With an early career in France, Canada and the UK in positions with the Front of House and F&B Division within luxury boutique and Internationally branded Hotel Operations Beatrice has gained an excellent knowledge of the Industry.

Maria Angulo - EUROPE

Maria's initial career path started in psychology but when she moved to The Netherlands, she decided to get into the hospitality industry, a sector she was very interested in. She joined our team in 2022 and is loving the rapport she is building with her clients and candidates alike across Europe.

Els Petitjean - BENELUX

After nearly having spent 25 years away from Europe it was time to return back to The Netherlands. To be able to find the perfect match for the client and candidate really gives her so much joy and excitement. Being born and raised in Belgium originating out of a hospitality family there was no way that she would not have a career in a similar field.
