Rookie Academy (Open Programme)
Two-day, in-person foundations for brand-new & EARLY-STAGE recruiters
Recruitment is hard when no one explains how it actually works.
This Academy gives rookies the foundations they should have from day one, not just scripts to copy or tick-box processes.
WHO IT’S FOR
Who this is built for
Completely green rookies starting their first recruitment role
Recruiters in their first 6 months who never really got the foundations
Graduates or career-changers new to recruitment
Agencies hiring one or a handful of juniors who want to give them the best start
What it’s not
Not for experienced recruiters looking for advanced BD tactics
Not scripts, hype, or “say this and bill more” shortcuts
Not theory. this is about real-world foundations and behaviours
WHAT THEY LEAVE WITH
WHAT ROOKIES LEAVE WITH
