Dear Friends,

I have been in discussion with few of my ex colleagues and learned something which i feel is not the right indicator of the role fitment. Majority of the hiring managers are being choosy about the domain expertise and reluctant to consider the candidates from a different domain expertise, no matter how good they are in their area of expertise. A recent case, i referred a fantastic (IT)Recruiter to a great eCommerce organization, they liked his expertise in Recruitment, but not going ahead as he does not have prior experience in eCom industry. Somewhere i feel it is not right as gaining that expertise should not take much time and this is how we promote diverse mindset within the team and organization. Your views pls.

Regards

Sunil Kumar
