The home of recruitment professionals
Recruitment is a fast paced, dynamic industry that has grown in the UK by 635% over the last 15 years. The market place during this time has changed significantly, and the choice and variations of recruitment specialisms that now exist is vast and still growing.For 80 years, the REC in its various forms has been proud to represent both corporate businesses and individual recruiters.
More than ever it is vital that in addition to the corporate support that thousands of recruitment companies rely on as REC members year after year, that each and every individual involved in the profession of recruitment has membership of a reputable professional institute, that recognises and promotes their own high standards and brand.
Delivering the highest standards of service to clients and candidates alike is core to being recognised as a true professional, so is being an individual member of the REC’s Institute of Recruitment Professionals.
