Situation I was working with HR consultants company where I was a telerecruiter.The client companies has set a specific target to recruit from our consultancy.I was an average performer in recuitments.Our team members were given individual targets.

Task The task was to create a pool of candisated by lining up suitable candidates, shortlisting them on the telephonic round on the basis of their communication skills, their education, previous work experiences, reasons for job changing etc.This was a lengthy task as we had to first screen the people from job portals, shortlisting the suitable profiles,calling them to the consultancy office where they will be interviewed by the client HR.They would go through the set of rounds and then finally selected.

Action Since the individual target was tough, I planned and made a goal to line up atleast 30 suitable candidates that day.I had the idea that maximum line up will turn good probability of hiring.

Results The outcome was stupendous. I had 22 recruitments that day.A great acheivement for me.I got a special perk along with my salary that month.

Good Luck!
