Dear Recruiters, it’s time we talk about our wellness too. 🧡
We often hear about candidate experience and hiring manager satisfaction...
But how often do we hear about recruiter experience? 🤔
We are chasing numbers 📊, driving closures 🚀, balancing deliveries, managing expectations...
Yet somewhere between all the hustle, we forget about ourselves.
Our mental health, our self-care, our families, our own peace of mind. 🧘♂️
And then...
A recession hits.
A budget cut happens.
And sadly, we are among the first to face layoffs. 💔
Every CEO proudly says, "People are our greatest asset!"
And guess who brings those assets into the company?
Recruiters do.
We are the very first handshake to every new dream entering the organization. 🤝
Yet, more often than not, we are still treated as a supporting function — not as strategic partners who build the very backbone of the company. 🏢
Today, I'm not here to rant.
I'm here to share a heartfelt reminder:
👉 Take a breath. 🧘
👉 Reflect deeply. 🪞
👉 Ask yourself — Is it worth sacrificing your mental health, happiness, and family time for an organization that sees you as just a number?
💬 It's okay to care deeply about your work.
But it's even more important to care equally deeply about yourself.
You are more than KPIs.
You are more than offer letters.
You are the silent architect of every great team ever built. 🌟
Take care of yourself, because YOU matter too. Selfcare Sunday Recruiters - I AM A RECRUITER
If you relate to this, share it forward.
Let’s break the silence around recruiter wellness. 🧡
