Hi!

I’m Ali Braid and I’ve worked in the recruitment industry for over 20 years, from starting as a successful temp consultant for the public sector in a national specialist agency to having a Trainer role created for me in the same business.
With The Recruitment Trainer, you are in the safest of hands. I’ve trained thousands of recruiters and believe in sharing the right techniques, tools and encouraging the right behaviours to make the most of every opportunity that comes their way.
I am passionate about life-long learning and working hard whilst having fun.  I see and share best practise every day with my clients and strongly believe in giving value and making a difference. I even dream about training! I know, I know, give this woman a life…

I believe that if you get the fundamental skills and behaviours of being a recruiter right, you WILL find success

...And Here's What People Are Saying!

I have been looking for a course to give me some inspiration and somewhere that I can check my approach and get some new ideas. This mini course has new information whilst being easily digestible – it gives me the kick I need before I pick up the phone!

I’ve been to quite a few of Ali’s open sessions over the years and they always get me thinking and inject me with some much needed enthusiasm! It can be hard to see things differently when you’ve been doing the job a while – Ali always reminds me to look for that one thing that could make the difference to my desk and to my monthly billing.

The environment is a lot more vibrant. The place just feels a lot more like a sales floor.With visibility of the league table we now have friendly competition. Great banter/fun. And I think the team see as mangers we care to get them billing.

Since completing the BD course, I’ve noticed new confidence when handling objections and pitching sales over the phone and have gained confidence through the knowledge gained from our sessions. I’ve successfully pitched and obtained business from 5 new clients since starting only 10 weeks ago. I am a lot more confident and prepared in my approach to new conversations that may have varied outcomes, meaning I gain more relevant information, leads and better relationships. I would recommend this training to anyone starting out in recruitment, it’s really good for laying strong foundations

I’m much more confident approaching candidates and knowing where to find them! Your training gave me a deeper understanding of the challenges associated with screening and sourcing candidates. I have achieved a more focused communication style which is a more goal-oriented approach. The training has allowed me to approach my work in a more structured way. Ali was great and brought a positive and enthusiastic approach

Ali brings great energy and enthusiasm to every training session making them fun and engaging. Sessions are highly interactive which promotes the sharing of ideas leading to good discussions and solutions. Ali brings a wealth of experience in her field and can therefore offer practical advice on any area of recruitment and its challenges. I would highly recommend Ali to any recruitment firm that wants to develop and get the best out of their staff.

Ali is such a fabulous trainer, she really knows how to engage everybody in the room and you will never leave a session without learning something. Thank you so much for assisting me with the foundation of recruitment!

Carolina Malko

Ali was brilliant. Had such fun, and learnt so much from her sessions. Can’t wait for our next training sessions!

Kate Tierney

Ali runs engaging and informative training workshops. I always walk away from every session with something new I can take back to my desk and incorporate into my work – I feel like this is because the theory is not only explained with great clarity, but then there’s always some form of practical/role-play to put it into practice. My confidence has definitely grown with Ali’s training, I am so grateful to have worked with her!

Razzia Gafur

Thoroughly enjoyed Ali’s sessions and every time it has been an absolute joy to be on. Her sessions are fun and engaging, but most importantly you feel much stronger and informed after the sessions. She definitely goes the extra mile and I can’t recommend her enough!

Will Miller

I really enjoyed every training-session with Ali. She is leading through the sessions very well keeping everybody always involved and interested bringing in key strengths of the different characters. That makes all taking part in her sessions bringing up their weak points. Ali’s topics and contents are worked out fantastic – they are coming straight to the relevant daily business points without having the feeling ‘now I’m getting trained‘. Ali is very refreshing Person putting in energy when it needs to be – the same she does regarding her deep knowledge, understanding and passion in recruitment. Look forward to next trainings! Thank you, Ali!

Ali was great , she asked everyone in the morning as to the areas we wanted help with & she created a plan for the day accordingly. She answered everyone’s questions & was able to come up with ideas to help the whole team moving forward, I am looking forward to putting into practice.
