How to get people to arrive on time in the IT recruiting industry

When working in such a fast paced industry such as the IT recruiting industry, there are many meetings and appointments that you will need to attend and others will have to join as well.  Between client appointments, interviews and meetings with other IT recruiters Boston, time is limited in a work day.

So how can you make sure that your technical recruiters and IT staffing salespeople to arrive on time? The first thing you should do is make sure that you always arrive on time.  In the IT staffing industry, it is extremely important to have a good reputation.  Always being on time and ready to start will make others trust you and know that you as a manager will work in the allotted time given.

Once you have established your reputation for being on time, work closely with those who are notoriously known for being late.  Provide them with a warning, not only explain the consequences of their tardiness, but the ramifications of their actions.  You must treat all of the employees in your IT recruiting company the same.  Sometimes setting an example with an insubordinate employee is best.

As an IT staffing manager, you should always lead by example.  If you tell your team there is no working from home, yet you’re on a conference call from your home, you’re not going to gain the trust of your employees.  If you confront an IT recruiter for being late, then come in late the next day, you’re going to lose credibility.  Therefore, always be sure to practice what you preach.
