A Great Investment

I'm a Human Resources Manager based in Southern California and a lot of the Recruiters and Human Resources professionals I network with have recommended Lou Adler's book and workshops to me. I thought I'd purchase this book to see what new techniques I could learn and I am glad I made the $30.00 investment.

A lot of Hiring Managers make decisions based on gut feel or based on how much they like the candidate. And often, they get disappointed when the new associate does not deliver or lacks the motivation to do the job. Hire with Your Head provides you with tools and processes, such as the 10-Factor Candidate Assessment, an invluable tool in assisting Hiring Managers and the interview team make an objective decision and avoid the costly mistakes of a bad hire.

Whether you are a novice or a pro, if you want to improve your skill in selecting and building a winning team, invest in this book.

Hire With Your Head by Lou Adler is a must read book for all recruiters, experienced or not!

Lou Adler's 'Hire With Your Head: Using Performance-Based Hiring to Build Great Teams' was the first book I read after getting into the retained executive search business (after 20+ years in another career), and it helped me get a solid footing to my new career. It is chock full of practical and enlightening bits of Lou's wisdom based on his successful retained executive search career which now spans 30 years. As others have said, this is the highest value a recruiter could get for $20 and, in fact, it's good to re-read as a reference book.

Hire with you Head - a Must Read for results-oriented Recruiters

Lou Adler knows his stuff! Lou is a veteran recruiter and a leader in educating Recruiters and Headhunters. I have always enjoyed his work and style of training. Lou really believes in correctly following the entire recruiting process from start to finish and not missing any steps. Hire with your Head is about a systematic approach to recruiting. Lou writes about actively recruiting passive candidates, being prepared (doing your homework up front) to "how to" get better results from your job postings, to maintaining control of the candidate process. But in this book there is much, much more.
Whether you are a third-party headhunter or an in-house recruiter, you will learn many things from this seasoned recruiting guru. I know I have.

Great, Practical Advice for Today's Recruiter

As a long-time Recruiter(both Corporate and Executive Search) and now a Recruiting Manager, I wholeheartedly recommend Lou Adler's Hire with Your Head. With his Performance-based hiring system, Lou recommends a process which starts with truly understanding what the candidate can "do" in the job, not focusing on what qualifications the right resume should list. From advising you on how to build your Performance Profiles, to sourcing in the right places with the right message, to a 2 Question Performance-based Interview, to Closing the top candidate, Lou's message is spot-on for the Recruiter who wants to attract the top talent. Written in direct, easy to apply language with real-life examples, I have made Lou's book my go-to spot for advice on coaching the recruiters on my team. The appendix if full of forms and templates to get started right away with his recommendations. A great resource!!!
