Don’t lose sight of standards – especially at a time of crisis

Coronavirus may have rocked our economy, but this is no excuse to lose sight of our standards and the importance of compliance.

Calamities like these are an opportunity to showcase your commitment to best practice and professionalism to help the economy back on its feet. When candidates and clients are worried, they will be predisposed to working with those they can trust.

REC Professionals have to abide by the REC’s Code – the foundation for ethical and transparent recruitment practices. Since the dawn of Covid-19, we saw our members rise to the challenge, to support the people who have been affected the most. 

By signing up as an REC Professional, you’re also signing up to become a brilliant recruiter, while continuously progressing in your career.

Signing up is easy.

Depending on your experience, you will become an Affiliate, Member or Fellow REC Professional (recognised by the industry as AREC, MREC or FREC respectively). 

You can also claim 20% off all future recruitment training courses, exclusive lifestyle benefits and networking opportunities. Your REC Professional membership will become a way of life as you climb up your career ladder.
