Underrated if you're patient with people

Started at 7am last Tuesday screening resumes for a regional healthcare client, about 60 applications for three nursing supervisor roles. Spent the morning on calls, found out two candidates had already accepted elsewhere, which is normal but still annoying. Lunch at my desk, then afternoon was all scheduling interviews and pushing back on a hiring manager who wanted someone with ten years experience for an entry-level salary. That part doesn't get easier no matter how long you do this. The rest of the day was follow-up emails and updating the applicant tracking system. By 5:30 I had filled one role and had solid leads on the other two. Not glamorous, mostly talking to people and managing expectations on both sides. Pay is decent for the region, better than most admin work, and you actually see results fast compared to a lot of jobs. The downside is some weeks nothing closes and you feel like you're spinning wheels. honestly if you need constant momentum this will frustrate you. Worth it if you like solving people problems more than data problems.

Solid work if you actually like people more than spreadsheets

I spent fifteen years in recruitment and the thing that still surprises me is how many people pick jobs based on salary alone. Then they're miserable eighteen months later. Talk to me about what drains you and what doesn't, because that matters more than most people think. The work itself is steady, you're matching people to roles, having real conversations, and yeah some days it's just a lot of phone screens and follow-ups. But if you're someone who gets energy from figuring out what makes a person tick, this is a good fit. The pay is decent for the hours, better than a lot of admin roles, and there's always demand somewhere. Just don't expect it to be glamorous. It's mostly listening, coordinating, and being organized enough to keep twenty things moving at once.
