Schedule Debriefs to Capture Immediate Feedback

If you’re waiting to hear back… you’ve already lost.

In Part 2 of this deep dive, Jamie Lupo breaks down why most recruiters don’t have a sales problem — they have a control problem.

And that problem is killing desks quietly.

After 18 years inside LHH — one of the largest talent solutions organizations in the world — Jamie has trained thousands of recruiters, rebuilt struggling offices, and helped teams turn flat years into record-breaking ones.

In this episode, she goes tactical.

You’ll hear:

• The exact debrief scheduling move that eliminates “waiting on feedback”

• How to turn a simple reference call into a new client order

• The “slow down to speed up” mindset that increases placement ratios

• The flat desk reset framework you can implement Monday morning

• Why only a small percentage of recruiters truly control their process

• How to transform transactional recruiting into revenue-driven recruiting

This isn’t about grinding harder.

It’s about guiding the process.

Scheduling feedback before interviews happen.

Clearing candidates properly before submission.

Using references as a business development engine.

Doing more with the work you already have to do.

If you want to scale a recruiting firm, strengthen your sales skills, and increase your placement velocity — this episode is your execution blueprint.

Jamie will also be going deeper live at the This Is Your Year Recruiter Summit.
