Original –

I am working in a headhunting company and this is a stressful work. I’m just work in this company for two weeks but my teacher is the boss there, so my cases are very difficult. My new client is an America software company, they sale BI products to others and they want to recruit some account sales. They want the candidate has software sale experience more than 8 years, they must come from Microsoft or HP and they have their own clients in Public or High Tech. It’s very hard, although they pay high we still can’t find the person who they want.

I am working in a headhunting company and this is a stressful job. I have just worked in this company for two weeks but my trainer is the boss there, so my cases are very difficult. My new client is an American software company, they sell BI products and they want to recruit some account salespeople. They want the candidate to have more than 8 years of software sales experience, they must come from Microsoft or HP and have their own clients in the Public sector or High Tech. It’s very hard, even though they offer a competitive salary we still can’t find a suitable candidate.
