Recruitment is like walking on a tightrope You have to maintain your balance Every minute, every second While different people try to distract you From different sides The candidates, the clients And finally, the boss One mistake and it will be the end for you You may think I'm being overly dramatic But trust me, you'll soon understand Handling multiple roles For multiple clients And speaking with multiple candidates Is enough to send your brain into a tizzy And cause your heart to beat Way faster than what is considered normal When you successfully close a role It is considered "all in a day's work" On the other hand, when something goes wrong You're on the chopping block right away Recruitment is indeed like walking on a tightrope But it is also a tug-of-war In which you get pulled from three sides Yep, you guessed it The candidates, the clients and the boss A war in which there is only one loser And that is you I am sorry for being such a killjoy But I believe in laying before you The harsh realities of this profession Rather than giving you any false hopes After all, as a famous professor and wizard once said "Numbing the pain will make it worse when you finally feel it"

The Harsh Realities of Recruitment
Recruitment is like walking on a tightrope You have to maintain your balance Every minute, every second While different people try to distract you From different sides The candidates, the clients And finally, the boss One mistake and it will be the end for you You may think I'm being overly dramatic But trust me, you'll soon understand Handling multiple roles For multiple clients And speaking with multiple candidates Is enough to send your brain into a tizzy And cause your heart to beat Way faster than what is considered normal When you successfully close a role It is considered "all in a day's work" On the other hand, when something goes wrong You're on the chopping block right away Recruitment is indeed like walking on a tightrope But it is also a tug-of-war In which you get pulled from three sides Yep, you guessed it The candidates, the clients and the boss A war in which there is only one loser And that is you I am sorry for being such a killjoy But I believe in laying before you The harsh realities of this profession Rather than giving you any false hopes After all, as a famous professor and wizard once said "Numbing the pain will make it worse when you finally feel it"

Nice to meet you It’s not nice to meet you. You’re just another one. Another one what? That’s ok, I’m just glad you came. Another person to promise me things Another person to let me down. I didn’t want to.   I know you didn’t want to. I’m sorry people have let you down. I can’t promise I won’t. I’ll do my best. You want to know my life story I have to repeat it again. When will this stop. I hate you. No, you tell me what you want.   What do you need now? You can hate me. But I don’t hate you. I don’t want to take the pills. They make my head foggy. I need to sleep. I need food. I’m hungry. Why don’t you hate me. Everyone else does. Who is everyone? I think you are very brave. Why don’t you sleep then? You are safe here. Brave. How am I brave? People are watching me. I can’t sleep. Not safe. Because you asked for help. You are safe. I’m watching you yes. To keep you safe. Here’s a sandwich. Eat. Then sleep. Are you cold? I don’t want to. You don’t get it. I haven’t eaten for days. You are nice. Not cold. But I haven’t showered for days. Well shower. That’s your room. I don’t get it. You are right But I know you are exhausted. Here are some clean clothes. You are going to be ok. I promise How do you know it’s going to be ok? I am so tired. Will you watch me all night. I’m scared. I know you are. I’ll be here all night. Lay down now. Tomorrow will be better. It will get better.  You will get better. I don’t hate you. The sand which was good. If you say so, I hope so. Goodnight. Sleep well, goodnight.
