Job Seekers typically see things from the perspective of their career, and that is understandable, but recruiting is not about careers. It’s about building great companies or making companies better. Great careers and great career moves are a by-product. In a lot of cases we feed the misconception. “Find your ideal job at XYZ Company”. Everyone’s skills are needed somewhere. The key for a candidate is to find the place where their skills and abilities are needed to make an organization better. That’s the best career fit, and that’s the situation where everyone wins. Great work in recruiting is always centered around making businesses better. Todd Kmiec Todd Kmiec and Associates
Some candidate is going to turn down your offer. The ideal candidate that would be a huge asset to your team, in some cases won’t consider a change. A great employee and key part of your business is going to leave at some point for some reason. These things happen. They are unavoidable. Smart businesses don’t let this cripple them. They don’t allow it to have a significant long-term impact because they have solid talent flow. Constantly recruiting, filling positions with the best talent you can find, doing great work, letting the world know, promoting for great work. Consistent talent flow makes a turn down or employee loss insignificant and keeps you on track. todd@toddkmiec.com http://www.recruitingblogs.com/profile/ToddKmiec https://www.facebook.com/pg/Todd-Kmiec-and-Associates-194864617211094/about/
Making mistakes on your resume is a sure way to get you overlooked. Presenting yourself in a less than favorable light will do that as well, but not just on the resume. Jobvite’s 2016 survey of 1,600 recruiters and HR professional found that 72% of respondents had a negative reaction to typos. Other social media sins include sharing photos of marijuana use (which 71% of respondents couldn’t stand), oversharing in general (60% of respondents weren’t fans), and posting pics of alcohol use (which ticked off 47% of respondents). If your image is out there where it can be found, it better be solid. todd@toddkmiec.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/toddkmiec/
