What's the worst thing that can happen from really good recruiting? To better understand how we can all get better at sales and better at asking people to join SigEp, we spoke with brother Sean Anthony, Dartmouth '06.
When you think of someone in sales, you might imagine someone going house to house, knocking on doors trying to convince people to buy products, or maybe a car salesman. People tend to think of an unflattering image. On today’s show, we learned that sales doesn’t have to be a dirty word. More specifically, how selling someone on joining SigEp can be beneficial to both you and them. Whether you’re a professional recruiter, you're trying to convince a friend why they should eat at the restaurant you like or asking someone to join SigEp, sales is something we all do everyday. To better understand how we can all get better at sales and better at asking people to join SigEp, we spoke with brother Sean Anthony. Sean is a graduate of Dartmouth College, who will be the first to tell you he wanted nothing to do with Fraternities as a freshman. Sean talks about how that changed and how he took what he learned recruiting and working professionally for SigEp after graduation, and turned it into a really successful career. After SigEp, he went on to work as a recruiter for the retailer Abercrombie & Fitch. And now, Sean is the advanced services recruiting leader for KForce, an award winning professional staffing agency.
