Fanatical Military Recruiting

The Ultimate Guide to Leveraging High-Impact Prospecting to Engage Qualified Applicants, Win the War for Talent, and Make Mission Fast

De: Jeb Blount

Narrado por: Jeb Blount, Jacob Harden

Smart, competent, and capable people are rare and in high demand. Every organization-from commercial enterprises, healthcare, non-profit, sports, education, to the military-is in an outright battle to recruit and retain these bright and talented people.

Rather than bullets and bombs, the war for talent is won through high-impact prospecting activity, time discipline, intellectual agility, emotional intelligence, and human to human relationships. On this highly competitive, ever changing, asymmetric battle field, to win, you must operate a level of excellence beyond anything asked of military recruiters before. Yet, in this new paradigm, many recruiters are struggling, and most recruiting units are staring down the barrel at 50 percent or more of their recruiters consistently missing Mission. It is imperative that we arm military recruiters with the skills they need to win in this challenging environment. The failure to make Mission is an existential threat to the strength and readiness of America's fighting forces and our democracy.

Fanatical Military Recruiting begins where the Recruiting and Retention colleges of the various branches of the military leave off. It is an advanced, master's level training resource designed specifically for the unique demands of Military Recruiting.

Rejection is never taught

The book itself was very informative and helpful as a starting recruiter. Going on exercises, missions, deployments we train for all those things but for recruiting… nothing prepares you for the rejections that are to come. It’s definitely draining but learning to overcome that hump, it definitely builds character.

Recruiting I was doing wrong

Def like and already have been using it as tool and reference book to stay on track

Motivated

As an Army recruiter and ARC instructor this book really connects what we teach at the college and what needs to happen in the station. This is a must read for all recruiters in my opinion!!!

Great Book!

A must read (hear?) for all military recruiters. Loved this book. Been in recruiting for 5 years and this book made me realize multiple places I can improve on.

from a recruiter on current mission

my interpretation of recruiting when I initially started what's that of any NCO who had been given a new billit or broadening assignment. Get after it, stay hungry and exceed expectations. This is all easier said than done when one has not experienced the recruiting atmosphere along with the trials and tribulations that the recruiting Mission brings. with that being said I want to thank Jeb for writing this book and breaking down the steps to become a successful recruiter in a format which is easily digestible.
