Comment on: Blog Post 'INTERVIEWING IS NOT A GAME': red but flexible and more organic approach to interviewing. I still make sure to gather the information I need, but I enjoy using different approaches to get it. Those approaches differ depending on the communication style of the person I'm working with. Some will argue that it is critical to put everyone through the same exact process to ensure consistency and validity of results, but I respectfully disagree. Not only does this approach yield positive results for me, it also keeps me challenged and fulfilled because there is always something new to discover or mine in each interaction. Slightly off your original point of not making IV'ing into a game, but I felt like sharing that.…; Added by Christopher Perez at 11:50am on February 3, 2011

Comment on: Blog Post 'How Do I Get The Phone to Ring?': not be relied on as the only source to drum up candidates. The other thing that came to mind in this approach was the metrics in the success rate. Of the 3 candidates interviewed, it would be interesting to know if they came from the batch of returned calls or from the 4 people directly approached which might also shed some light on the most effective approach. Regardless, with less then 10% of calls returned from voicemail, it is quite obvious that in order to improve your success ratio, something there needs to change. Either the voicemail script needs to be improved or you need to work harder at making direct contact with target candidates. But make sure you know as much as you can about your target before you make the call and tailor the approach to their background as Andy Lucas described. They need to feel like this is an opportunity made for them.…; Added by Wendy Kerkhoff at 1:24pm on March 4, 2010

Comment on: Blog Post 'Who is (really) the client? Caution...not for the faint of heart.': expect it's meant to be, I think there is an in between. Yes, we need to sell our self, but we also need to let a potential client know we are selective and we would like them to be one of our select clients. But make them prove themselves worthy of our business. No. Just like in an interview, the best conversation between seller and buyer is an open conversation so we determine the client's needs and can advise how we can fill those needs efficiently and effectively. One approach I particularly liked in my sales training is the get to the point up front approach. When opening the meeting you state, "Mr. Simmons, the purpose of this meeting is to see how we can work together. My goal is to add you to our select list of clients." Then, you launch into a two sided conversation, and if you sell yourself and your business, you walk out with a client. …; Added by Gay Carter at 1:20pm on February 14, 2011
