A must listen for season and rookie recruiters alike

Ben is masterful at how he pulls information out. Every single guest drops amazing information and tips and Ben doesn’t get in the way of them talking but keeps them on track to make sure you get the most out of every podcast. They must listen. I don’t care if you’re a new recruiter or a dinosaur like me. There’s so much to learn from all the guests on his podcasts.
