Eric gained a considerable strategic management and leadership experience within the retail industry for over 30 years, in an international scale. Armed with his insight in people management and a diverse cultural experience, he further expanded his portfolio of expertise by working with Euroasia Philippines, Inc. (EPI) an established overseas manpower agency. His work with EPI mainly focused on providing structure and developing HR policies and procedures for clients in Madagascar. It was during this time that he saw the increasing demand for a competent and efficient management team and the need to improve current recruitment practices being employed in the market. Back in the Philippines, the economy continues to grow and the need for a competent labor force is ever increasing, paving the way for Euroasia Executive Search to be born.
Aligned with Eric’s vision of helping companies grow by adapting best practices and strengthening the management team, EESI is fully committed to find qualified candidates that meet the strategic requirements of our clients.
I have been around HR and labor professionals my whole life but it was with EESI that I actually learned to be a recruiter. My work entails that I wear many hats, and certainly, the recruiter hat has been one of them. Every so often, you meet people whose spark and passion for what they do is so apparent, you cannot help but feel inspired too. At times, you’ll find diamonds in the rough – people who surprise you for being unexpected and yet may just be the one you’re looking for. The thrill from new discoveries, the awe for others’ talents, the humility from rejections- these are what drives me in the recruitment industry.
My passion for recruitment comes from the unique opportunity to create meaningful connections between companies and people. As a Business Development Manager, I enjoy being at the center of that win-win situation, helping organizations find the right talent to achieve their goals while also guiding individuals toward opportunities that can transform their careers.
A recruiter’s work, honestly speaking, can be stressful. And yet, it always comes with that feeling of fulfillment – whenever you help an organization find the person they need, or when a displaced professional gets the job offer to share with their hopeful family. That keeps me going.
The best things about being in recruitment are that you develop yourself personally and professionally, and you change people’s lives. By guiding them to opportunities that fit their skills, expertise and experience, you help them achieve the very best for them.
Being a recruiter is a rewarding job. It is a mutual relationship between clients, the recruiter, and applicants. I grow as a recruiter, because there is always something to learn, whether the position I work on is something I know well or is new to me.
The best part about working in recruitment is the connections you can make. You will have the opportunity to learn about their journeys to becoming professionals in their respective fields. It’s interesting to learn all about various roles and how important they are to an organization.
The best part of working in recruitment is meeting people from different industries and learning from their experiences. In almost four years, I’ve built connections with many, and some have even become friends. I’m always grateful when they remember me, check in, or thank me for the support I gave them.
Honestly, the best part of working in recruitment is that I enjoy every step of the process—from writing job ads to onboarding new hires. It’s rewarding to see candidates land the right job, and I love being part of that journey. Of course, there are frustrating moments, but I try to look on the bright side of situations.
