Recruitment has 2 important relationships, one with the client and one with the candidate. What I have found is important is that clients and candidates need to know that they can trust you to provide a quality service time after time. This keeps them coming back for more, and allows you to develop a relationship from which you both benefit.
Some of my best tips to form a trusting relationship include:

• Listen carefully to your clients/candidates wants, needs and objectives
• Identify the issues they are facing
• Determine if you can be of value by solving their issues and then deliver on this
• Communicate as often and as openly as possible
• Care for them – go that extra mile
