subject: How To Find A Career In Airport Recruitment In 2010 [print this page] Finding a job is quite a tough askFinding a job is quite a tough ask. But what about finding a job that puts you on the other side of the interview panel?That is what you are seeking to do when you look for a career in airport recruitment. 2010 is a year when a large number of people will be absorbed - or reabsorbed - into the airlines industry. With the recession, travel - both for recreation and business purposes - was at an all-time low, and these levels are finally rising as the global economy makes a return to normal. This is why recruitment officers and agencies are in high demand at the moment. Airports require an extremely large set of personnel, especially for busy airports in metropolitan cities. People are required to ? help clean and maintain both the aircraft and airport, ? ensure that check-ins are made on time, ? transport and tag materials such as luggage and trolleys, ? answer the queries of passengers, ? perform security checks, ? Man the control tower... And to perform a large number of miscellaneous tasks, ranging from unskilled labour to highly skilled. Typically, airlines tend to outsource their recruitments to recruitment agencies. The bulk of recruitment agencies are run by entrepreneurs who set these up themselves. As a result, the best way to find a career in the field of recruitment is to set up one's own agency or to find new entrepreneurs looking for staff for their agencies. These jobs can be found through the usual avenues - local papers, networking with business professionals, using social media, and occasionally job portals. Note, though, that you will see very few job portals advertising openly for recruitment personnel - you will have to dig a little deeper to find these jobs.To work in the recruitment sector, a specific set of skills is necessary. For example:? Public relations. To work effectively with both the employing agencies and the hopeful employees, one must be able to communicate well and generate positive responses.? Psychology. Working with human resources requires the ability - whether innate or learned - to evaluate them. If this sounds somewhat inhuman, let me put it this way - you need to know what jobs your candidate will be suited to in order to give them the best. ? Knowledge about the sector you are working in. In order to recommend jobs, you need to know exactly what the requirements - written and unwritten - are. In case a candidate applies for one job but is actually suited for another, the recruitment officer should be able to make suggestions. Another feature of airport recruitment agencies is that a single airport usually trusts a single agency or a very small number of agencies to deal with its entire recruitment process, for all posts ranging from janitor to airport manager. If you can place yourself with an agency working with a large and busy airport, you will definitely find yourself some very lucrative deals before long. The profits are growing even faster in 2010 because more and more people have decided to invest in airline stocks. Strike while the iron stays hot!
