Account Manager – Account Management

Well organization will expect a senior recruitment professional to participate in the revenue generation 'directly' like, Account Management rather than keep supporting as a Recruiter/ Lead Recruiter through which both parties would get benefited.

So, that's the 'change', which not everyone is comfortable about. There is definitely a difference between making a call to a candidate and a call to client. As a recruiter, you are only managing the expectations of one-end, the candidate, and possibly you can fight with another end, which is your account manager. But having put yourself in the shoes of account manager, you can no more 'fight', you need to meet expectations of both the ends, that's the change. Unless you do so, you can't 'generate revenue', means no success.
