My this is an interesting
thread...I no longer have one of those jobs where I can be by the computer a lot
so I have to catch up on Ride camp in batches when I have some free
time.
Stacy...by the way we have
something in common...I used to be a recruiter myself. Did everyone from
temporary office personal to Technical to Executive Search (both contract and
retained).
Now I am a District Sales Manager
for Avon and while recruiting is still a HUGE part of my job, it's a different
kind of recruiting as I am also responsible for managing and developing the reps
in my District as well as meeting district wide sales goals and
such.
My job is NOT easy, but I do love
it as for the most part I schedule my own time and so I can often work my day so
I can get an afternoon or evening ride in. Hard to this time of year as
4th quarter is nuts for us...but most of the year it's a flexible
schedule.
That flexible schedule is
especially handy when planning ride weekends or if I need to work from home the
Monday after a ride and take it kinda easy. Basically my boss is easy to
please and as long as I'm hitting my sales plan I have lots of
flexibility!
Life is good...off to catch up on
more of this interesting thread.

Re: [RC] Occupation - Stacy Sadar
Executive Recruiter....Headhunter...Body Snatcher...or any of those other
terms people have come up with. I prefer Executive Recruiter since
it sounds like the "professional" occupation that it is. All the
others sound like, well....let's not go there. lol
It not only helps pay the real bills but also all the play time too!
Flexibility...YES. Work hard, play hard is definitely the rule of thumb
around here.
