If you’re the loud, dramatic, fast-talking recruiter, you’re the PHONE. Make a giant paper mache phone that you can comfortably fit inside by poking holes large enough for your head and limbs. You can replicate your desk phone with additional spray paint colours or draw a screen with your voicemail message written out.

If you’re the eccentric, fun, optimistic recruiter, you’re the POOL. You’re the water, so gather as many traditional backyard swimming toys as you can and wear them up and down your body. If you’re not in the mood for shopping, print and mummify yourself with resumes of fake strong candidates.

Dive into the festivities as the optimistic Pool recruiter! Deck yourself out in swimming gear and floaties, or wrap yourself in resumes for a quirky twist. Get ready to make a splash at the Halloween party!

Materials needed: Blue morphsuit, inflatable floaties, snorkelling gear, rubber ducks (optional)

LinkedIn

If you’re the social, constantly-on-their-personal-phone recruiter, you’re the LINKEDIN. Find a huge square cardboard box and paint the LinkedIn logo on all sides. Like the phone, you need to comfortably fit inside so poke holes large enough for your head and limbs. You earn bonus points if you bring toy mice and build a board assembled of only keys.
