In this brief monologue, the speaker advises recruiters to schedule a follow‑up call with the client within 48 hours of the initial briefing. By explicitly asking the client for a convenient time, recruiters secure client buy‑in, obtain prompt and honest feedback on candidates, and alleviate team frustration caused by delayed responses. The speaker emphasizes that this simple step leads to a higher acceptance rate for submitted candidates, making the recruitment process more efficient and collaborative.

and just ask, when are you free in 48 hours' time? What time works? And it sounds silly, it's so small, but God, it helps so much because my team get frustrated when they're not hearing back on their candidates. And every recruiter feels it. So getting that buy-in from your client, say, look, brilliant brief, thanks for giving us an hour. We try and make every briefing call an hour if we can. 48 hours, I need to speak to you again. Oh, that's, that's quick. That's exciting. Say, yeah, it is exciting, but we're going to need your honest feedback and we're going to need you on the call. And once they've bought into that, they tend to see a higher percentage of the people we then send. Yeah.
