WFH in Recruitment

What Happens When Recruiters Go Remote

• Lower urgency
  The pace drops. Calls slow. Momentum fades.

• Reduced collaboration
  Ideas stop bouncing. Wins go unnoticed. Standards slip quietly.

• Weaker culture
  Belonging fades fast without daily connection.

• Less accountability
  Recruitment is a performance game — and it needs visibility.

Why It Matters

Recruitment is about energy
Energy is contagious
And you only feel it when you are in it

WFH might work for some roles, it does for my wife, it does for the roles we recruit for.

But in recruitment, it usually costs more than it gives. And I don't mean just money, I mean culture, development, values and team play. 

MAP’s Insight

At MAP Talent we have seen it first-hand.

Our best growth, sharpest performance and strongest culture have all come from being in the room together. In our culture together. 

In recruitment, being in the office is not about control, it is about development.

You learn faster
You share ideas
You feed off each other’s energy

We are all for WFH in many roles and industries

But recruitment is different

You would not ask a high performance sports team to work from home

And you cannot expect a high performance recruitment team to either.
