Why Recruiting Matters: A Chat with SANINC Owner, Mark Stocker

In a recent interview with SANINC Owner and President, Mark Stocker, we turned our focus back to our roots.

What is Recruiting and Why Does it Matter?

Let’s start there. Why does recruiting matter?

Mark Stocker (MS): On the most basic level, recruiters give prospective candidates access to openings that are more confidential in nature, providing them the ability to explore opportunities they wouldn’t necessarily otherwise hear about. Most executive positions just aren’t on job boards. Those are done via confidential searches which require a relationship with a recruiter. But, beyond that, recruiters can offer a much better understanding of what career path options are available within certain spaces. It’s not just about what jobs are on the recruiter’s docket, but also what partnering with a recruiter long-term can do for your career or your company.
