Source Group International is taking a stance to improve the future. We want to rally the troops and&nbsp;remind all that women are powerful, intelligent, and capable of achieving anything they set their minds to.&nbsp;
But what does it really mean to say that the future is female? For starters, it means that we need to work towards a world where women are no longer held back by gender stereotypes or discrimination.&nbsp;
Playing the field
But it's not just about leveling the playing field. The future is female because women bring unique perspectives and strengths to the table. <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/diversity-and-inclusion/diversity-wins-how-inclusion-matters">Research</a> has shown that companies with diverse leadership teams perform better than those without, and having more women in leadership positions can lead to more inclusive decision-making and better outcomes for everyone.&nbsp;
The Challenges
Of course, there are still many challenges to overcome. Women still face discrimination, harassment, and violence in many parts of the world. They are often underrepresented in positions of power, and they still earn less than men on average. But the fact that the future is female means that we have the potential to change all of that. By working together to create a more equitable and just society, we can ensure that women have the opportunities and support they need to thrive.
So what can we do to make the future truly female?
We can support women in our personal and professional lives. We can mentor young girls and women, help them develop their skills and talents, and advocate for their rights and opportunities.&nbsp;
In conclusion, the future is female because women are powerful, intelligent, and capable of achieving great things. By working together to break down gender barriers and create a more equitable society, we can ensure that women have the opportunities and support they need to thrive. So let's embrace the future with open arms, and continue to work towards a world where women can truly shine.
Join us on our mission to improve the future and enable everyone to <a href="https://www.sourcegroupinternational.com/discover-sgi/diversity/">discover their potential</a>.&nbsp;

The Future is Female

Career satisfaction is something we&rsquo;re all looking for from our professions. Being happy and fulfilled in a job makes a difference to the quality of your work, to your performance, and to your results.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Recruitment can be a rewarding career. The chase, the buzz of a signed contract, the rewards. There&rsquo;s nothing like it but that&rsquo;s not the only rewarding thing about it, here are some more reasons why we believe recruitment is one of the most rewarding careers you&rsquo;ll ever have.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You make a real difference in people&rsquo;s lives&nbsp;
How can a recruiter make a difference to people&rsquo;s lives? You aren&rsquo;t a heart surgeon or scientist researching ways to beat life-threatening illnesses but hear us out. The average person spends over 84,000 hours across our lifetime and that should be spent somewhere they love. As recruiters, we have the power to find people that special place that they absolutely adore. Making work feel like play. We learn about people&rsquo;s stories and situations and find the best workplace for them. If that&rsquo;s not making a significant difference to people&rsquo;s lives then we don&rsquo;t know what is.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You meet a huge range of amazing people&nbsp;
Clients, colleagues, and candidates. If you&rsquo;re someone who thrives on personal interaction then you&rsquo;ll find a career in recruitment hugely rewarding. Your day will be spent engaging with a wealth of people, finding out their stories, their goals, and piecing the puzzle together.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You can progress through the ranks&nbsp;
We all love to make progress. In recruitment that doesn&rsquo;t have to be a process that takes years and years. If you work hard, get results and have the right attitude you&rsquo;ll be on the fast track to success. Many companies have a transparent structure so you can see your career progression opportunities and you have a clear path for promotion.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You&rsquo;re constantly challenged&nbsp;
No day is the same. Whether it&rsquo;s being out of the office meeting clients or negotiating contracts, something is always happening. The busy pace pushes you to face new challenges head on so you keep on learning new skills. At the end of every day you&rsquo;ll be amazed by what you&rsquo;ve achieved and how much you&rsquo;ve learned.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You have freedom&nbsp;
We will add a caveat to this one. It&rsquo;s highly unlikely that you&rsquo;ll have total freedom and autonomy. But you will be able to dictate your day, and once you&rsquo;re fully trained it&rsquo;s likely you&rsquo;ll be running your own clients and candidates. The ability to choose which tasks you do, set your own deadlines and priorities and be flexible with your workload is a big part of the role which makes it so rewarding.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You get to compete, and hopefully win&nbsp;
When you work in recruitment you&rsquo;re constantly in competition. With yourself, with your colleagues, with other recruiters. The thrill when you win is like no other.&nbsp;&nbsp;Winning relies on your innovation and ability to find new ways to attract the best candidates and clients before trying to pair the two together. There&rsquo;s no other job out there that fosters such a sense of competition and gives such delight when you win.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You influence the clients you work with&nbsp;
Knowing that your work, efforts and opinions make a difference is hugely rewarding. As a recruiter you&rsquo;re putting forward people to work in someone else&rsquo;s business, in turn they will make a positive difference to that business. The more experienced you become the bigger that impact through strategic hiring decisions and the client taking your opinions and advice on board.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
You&rsquo;re rewarded for your hard work&nbsp;
Regardless of your base salary, with commission you&rsquo;re directly rewarded for your hard work. The more successful your clients are, the more successful you are. It&rsquo;s that simple and makes for a thrilling, but infinitely rewarding career.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
When you hit a target, close that deal or conquer every challenge in front of you it&rsquo;s clear how personally rewarding a career in recruitment can be. Combine that with the positive impact on businesses, and individuals and it adds an extra level of satisfaction to your work.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Do you want to feel those rewards in your career? Leave the ordinary recruitment career behind and discover your potential. SGI are hiring across our global locations, and we&rsquo;re looking for talent to join us.

One of the most rewarding careers you'll ever have

It feels that personal branding has become the buzzword of choice recently. Unlike other buzzwords, it&rsquo;s one that&rsquo;s here to stay. But what is personal branding? Do you need it? And how do you uncover your personal brand?&nbsp;
&nbsp;
We&rsquo;ve got all the answers you need to start harnessing the power of personal branding.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
What is your personal brand?&nbsp;
We all understand what a business brand is - it&rsquo;s the colours, logos, words, voice and tone that a business puts out there to identify itself. A personal brand is the same. It&rsquo;s the sum of all the parts you put out into the world - whether online or in person to promote yourself.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
That might be through your social media profiles, your website if you have one, the way you conduct yourself in meetings or in emails. It&rsquo;s everything about your skills, personality, experience and conduct that create your unique self.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Why is your personal brand important?&nbsp;
From a professional standpoint it&rsquo;s crucial to discover your personal brand to understand the impact you&rsquo;re having. Particularly in a career such as recruitment where relationship building and networking are entwined with your success.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Your personal brand is what makes you stand out from the crowd, it&rsquo;s what people remember and it&rsquo;s what makes you likeable, or not.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
When everyone in a business is exceptional the differentiating factor is their personal brand. It&rsquo;s part of your credibility, your presence and your career. Without it you blend into the background and when it comes to new opportunities or promotions you have to fight to get recognition. When all other areas are tied, those with a strong personal brand will already have made the necessary impact making it easier for them to progress.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
How do you discover your personal brand?&nbsp;
Once you understand the concept you can start to discover what your personal brand is. It&rsquo;s likely that, especially online, you&rsquo;ve already got the start of a personal brand but the key is to be more intentional about developing it.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Here are some tips to get started:&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Find your why&nbsp;
Start by thinking about what motivates you, what gets you out of bed in the morning and what you want to achieve. Then take a moment to reflect on what achievements and skills you&rsquo;re proudest of.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Identifying what drives you, what you enjoy and your goals will help guide the content and focus of your personal brand.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Discover your values&nbsp;
Do you know what you care about? To progress your career you need to make sure that what you care about and your values have synergy with those of your employer. That&rsquo;s not to say they need to be exactly the same but there needs to be some connection.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
When your goals align with those of your employer or client, your work takes on a new level.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Uncover your audiences&nbsp;
Who are your stakeholders? Employer, colleagues, clients, past employers, friends, professional network? Understanding who is in your sphere of influence will help you take charge of how your personal brand needs to develop.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Audit your current brand&nbsp;
Even without trying you will have a personal brand. You need to uncover what that is. Talk to friends, colleagues, your line manager and take a look at your online presence. You need to know where your starting point is and whether you&rsquo;re happy with it.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
How do you build your personal brand?&nbsp;
The key to building your personal brand is visibility. You don&rsquo;t have to go from being an introvert to an extrovert. It&rsquo;s about being authentically visible.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Make sure your online presence is up-to-date and reflect your values and goals then share relevant content that you connect with.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Network and share your details with interesting people and then follow up.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Dress in a way that is you but also supports your professional goals.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Actions speak louder than words so make sure your actions encapsulate your values.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
Most of all, be aware that you have a personal brand, what it is and what you&rsquo;d like it to be. Once you do that it&rsquo;ll be far easier for you to be authentic and make an impact.&nbsp;

Discovering your career in recruitment in London

Whether you&rsquo;re looking for that elusive first job or shifting your career focus, landing your dream role in recruitment can feel a bit tricky. When you peel back the mystery it&rsquo;s relatively straightforward, as long as you&rsquo;re willing to go the extra mile and commit yourself to the process.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
We&rsquo;ve raked through our collective experience and pulled together our 10 steps to making that jump.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
1. Understand yourself&nbsp;
Recruitment is a fast-paced, exciting career path and you need to make sure that you&rsquo;re going to thrive in that environment. If you&rsquo;re thinking about starting your dream career in recruitment it&rsquo;s worth taking some time to think about your skills, weaknesses, ambitions and priorities to make sure that you&rsquo;re applying to the right roles.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
2. Do your research&nbsp;
Do you want to work in-house or for an agency? Both are recruitment but they have their own quirks and benefits. Making the right decision for you will be the foundation of your career. Talk to others in those positions and do your research, identifying which route is best for you and who those employers are.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
3. Build your personal brand&nbsp;
What is a personal brand? It&rsquo;s all the information you put out into the world and how you put it out there. Making sure your CV is high-quality, your LinkedIn profile is up-to-date, your social media platforms are either locked down or the content is suitable for a potential employer to view. It&rsquo;s also worth doing a google of your name and seeing what comes up.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
4. Target your dream employer&nbsp;
With your research completed, you can start to keep an eye on opportunities at your dream employer. If they don&rsquo;t have any advertised vacancies then it&rsquo;s always worth contacting the hiring manager directly for an informal chat to make yourself and your ambitions known.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
5. Look for opportunities&nbsp;
Job boards, LinkedIn, word of mouth, company websites. Your job is to become the Sherlock Holmes of the recruitment world - sniffing out your opportunity. Don&rsquo;t wait for it to come to you, be proactive and if you still can&rsquo;t find anything online, pick up the phone and start calling agencies and businesses to create an opportunity.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
6. Network&nbsp;
If you aren&rsquo;t getting anywhere through traditional methods then it&rsquo;s time to start building a network. Do you know anyone who works in the sector or companies you want to work? Do any of your friends know anyone? Are you connected on LinkedIn? Put yourself out there and start building your network.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
7. Planning and preparation&nbsp;
An interview isn&rsquo;t the time to wing it. Take your time and prepare yourself. Think about the type of questions you might be asked and your answers. Research the company and think about what you want to find out about them. You want to build a rapport with them and this is your opportunity to get under the skin and find out if it&rsquo;s the right place to kick start your career in recruitment.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
8. Smash that interview&nbsp;
Take a deep breath, lay off the caffeine, arrive 5 minutes early, have your questions ready and be your best self. Use all your research, practice and passion to show them why you would be amazing at the role.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
9. Decision time&nbsp;
Even if your dream employer offers you a position, take a moment to think about it properly. Is the package what you were expecting, what promotion opportunities are there, does the start date work for you? You need to think long-term when making this decision, so don&rsquo;t rush into it.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
10. Keep one step ahead&nbsp;
Congratulations on your new job! Recruitment is a roller coaster of a profession so strap yourself in. But don&rsquo;t settle for average. Progress your career by keeping one step ahead. Seek out any opportunity, constantly develop yourself and build your network.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Launching your dream career in recruitment comes down to a few key factors. Passion, determination, preparation and perseverance. With those 4 qualities you&rsquo;ll be unstoppable, not just in landing that first role but in building a long, happy, rewarding career.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Take it one step at a time and if in doubt borrow the Scout&rsquo;s motto and &ldquo;Always be prepared&rdquo;.

Why choose a career in recruitment? Working in recruitment is a rewarding experience for many people. If you’re an outgoing person with a passion for helping others, you might be thinking about a career in recruitment and a career at SGI. Here are some reasons why working in recruitment is a great career option. Freedom to manage priorities Once you are trained, you’ll start to build your own base of clients and candidates. Most recruitment desks are remunerated mostly by the commission on placements. So, you’ll be motivated to work hard and follow approaches that yield the bestresults. This is good for you (as you’ll earn more bonuses) and good for the company. That gives you a lot of freedom to manage your own time and set your own priorities. Uncapped earning and progression Most recruitment firms offer commission with no ceiling. This means that the only limit to how much money you can make is your own dedication. Recruitment companies also usually offer very good progression tracks for all roles too. So you’ll have room to grow and earn promotions. It’s not uncommon for a Junior Recruitment Consultant to earn a promotion within the first 6-12 months. Helping others achieve Where you work is a big part of your identity. And that’s true for your candidates as well. By finding attractive placements for your candidates, they’ll experience a <a href="https://www.futurelearn.com/subjects/business-and-management-courses" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">sense of achievement</a>, improved self-esteem and high life satisfaction. Plus, when you find great candidates for your clients, they’ll reward you with loyalty and repeat business. Helping others achieve their goals feels pretty good too. <a href="https://www.sourcegroupinternational.com/leave-ordinary-behind/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Leave Ordinary Behind&nbsp;</a> Variety each day If you hate drudgery and the routine of most working environments, recruitment is ideal. No two days are the same. On any given day you could attend client meetings, screen candidates over the phone, conduct face-to-face interviews, pitch for new business, negotiate contracts or prepare reports. Since most of the work is self-directed, there’s no excuse to be bored. As you can see, joining the field of recruitment has a lot of great characteristics. At SGI, we’re looking for new talent to join us across our teams. Hardworking, super motivated, gritty. If that’s you, then join SGI, hack your own career, accelerate your earning potential, and have a lot of fun. <a href="https://www.sourcegroupinternational.com/contact/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Let’s chat about your recruitment career.</a>

The SGI Rainforest has reached 1000 Trees!
&nbsp;
In January 2022, SGI partnered with environmental organisation <a href="https://ecologi.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ecologi</a>. We aim to fund the planting of hundreds of trees throughout the course of this year, every placement we make at SGI, we plant a tree. We'd just like to say thank you for our progress so far, we've planted 1000 trees with the support of our customers.
&nbsp;
It's a brilliant start and we're not even halfway through the year yet! Our CSR promise is about working with communities, for the communities and seeing measurable change, and this initiative does just that. It's an impactful climate change project, which sees our funding support a range of projects to reduce the greenhouse effect.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Here's to the next 1000 trees!&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Thank you!
