Meet Sam the Recruiter : From Bright-eyed, Happy and Hopeful, to Hardened, and Cynical.

"Gum on Shoe" Recruiting isn’t for the faint of heart—and poor Sam the Recruiter knows this all too well. Picture a wide-eyed optimist fueled by passion, genuinely excited to connect talent with great companies. Fast-forward through market slumps, endless finger-pointing (everything’s apparently Sam’s fault), and the complete lack of recognition for nailing those dream hires. What’s left? A recruiter fueled by sarcasm.
Recruiting truly is a rollercoaster—one moment you’re the hero, and the next, well, you’re just the gum stuck to the sole of someone’s shoe.
