Requirements
At the start of our collaboration, the recruitment consultants at HR Consult Group AG were predominantly aged between 40 and 55 and could look back on successful careers as managing directors, managers – such as sales directors, etc. The situation was broadly similar for all of them: they had already achieved everything in their professional lives – a great career, a house of their own, and children who were now independent.
Everyone was asking themselves the same question:
What kind of work will I be doing for the next 10–15 years, perhaps right up until retirement? The desire to finally make decisions on my own terms, to break free from existing structures and to shape my daily life in a way that is enjoyable, motivating and, on top of that, lucrative. I’ve toyed with the idea of self-employment on several occasions, but haven’t yet come across the right opportunity or had the right idea for it.
One possible „Plan B“ is a career in HR consultancy. Your specialist expertise makes you a respected partner at the level where decisions are made. With HR Consult Group AG, you have the opportunity to establish a lucrative career and build a secure business model for the years to come.
If you’d like to capitalise on your strong and resilient professional network, joining a network of highly professional headhunters could be your „Plan B“ for a successful next step in your career.

Has the coronavirus had an impact on business as a recruitment consultant?
Yes, absolutely. The crisis is highlighting the weaknesses in our clients’ business models and the resulting staffing requirements. These needs must be met. However, turbulent times also show just how important it is to constantly reinvent oneself – otherwise, one’s own business model will not be sustainable either.

Does a highly specialised recruitment consultancy – as a people business – still have a future in the digital age?
As long as there are people, there will always be „people business“. The digital future will be shaped by the right employees. These employees need to be found. An understanding of the company’s and the industry’s DNA helps in finding the right people.
