Enjoy this specially curated collection of 31 Recruiter memes that highlight the uniquely universal moments shared by recruiting professionals across industry, region and company.
Recruiter Memes About Candidates
Candidates – gotta love them in all of their various iterations. From the unprepared to the self-promoting, the jack of all trades to elusive purple squirrel; those who show up half an hour early for interviews to those that cancel 10 minutes before their onsite interview.
Here are a few comical reminders of the moments that make us chuckle.

Recruiter Memes About Interviewing
As Smart Recruiters explains, the hiring process is the process of reviewing applications, selecting the right candidates to interview, testing candidates, choosing between candidates to make the hiring decision and performing various pre-employment tests and checks.
When the hiring process works, it's a thing of beauty. But when it doesn't, it creates an undeniable pain for both recruiters and candidates alike.

Recruiter Memes About Recruiter Wins/Fails
As we explore the many recruiting blunders made by our candidates and hiring managers, we must stop and acknowledge the missteps we experience in a typical day in the life.
Whether we're moving too fast and forget to make a scheduled call, or we fail to follow up with a hiring manager or candidate when promised, it's important to recognize our errors, make amends and keep moving.
In the words of Payne Stewart, if you can't laugh at yourself, then how can you laugh at anybody else?

Recruiter Memes About Hiring Managers
We love to hate them and hate to love them. But in truth, we're just BFFs in the making.

The process of "identifying, researching, generating, and networking with potential job candidates in order to convert individuals into job applicants" is no easy feat.
