On this week’s AIBF Business Talk, entrepreneurial brothers Niall and Declan McNiff of Realtime Recruitment discuss their journey in business with AIBF CEO Elaine Carroll. 🎙️
Realtime Recruitment, specialising in tech & transformation recruitment since 2005, reflects on their upbringing, learning customer value from their entrepreneurial parents. 🛠️
With offices in Dublin & Belfast, they help clients of all sizes successfully scale their teams to deliver projects all over Ireland and the east coast of the USA.
The duo’s inspiration stemmed from their risk-taking mother, who ran a successful fashion business for 34 years, emphasising customer relationships. Their entrepreneurial path was natural, fueled by sibling rivalry and trust. The core of Realtime Recruitment's success lies in their strong client relationships, boasting a 97% retention rate. 💼
In this podcast we hear how working as siblings brings unique advantages, fostering honesty and constructive criticism essential for growth. Challenges, like self-doubt, were overcome through trusting the process and intentions. Beyond financial success, their fulfillment lies in seeing staff and clients flourish, alongside life-changing opportunities for candidates. 🤝
Their advice to younger selves emphasises remaining calm amid challenges and delegating responsibility. They credit their synergy to straightforward communication and quick decision-making, enabled by their complementary strengths. Maintaining work-life balance evolved with time, prioritising family and hobbies. ⏰
Innovation drives their motivation, understanding the need to adapt in a rapidly changing business landscape. They encourage aspiring entrepreneurs, especially siblings, to seize opportunities, define roles clearly, embrace criticism, and learn from mistakes. 🚀
