Comment on: Topic 'Where is the sense of urgency?': side for 2 decades and have worked for small to large fortune 500 companies and it's the same. Hiring managers don't make hiring a priority and unless we drive it and really drive it, you lose momentum and then when it's time to point fingers, it's usually always pointed at the recruiter. Now when I say drive the hiring managers like a drill sargent, I'm only saying that in kind. After all, they are our internal customers and in order to have credibility and a good working relationship, we have to play well in the sand box. Right? However.............you can drive with a sense of directness that lets them know you mean business and you're the driver of the car and will lose candidates if there is a lag in the process. I've walked into roles where there was never before a recruiting manager, and hiring managers relied only on the "other" HR people to help them with hiring. Since it wasn't part of their core compentancy AND the "others" don't typically enjoy the recruiting function, they would take all the time in the world to fill a job in order to avoid doing it. As the newbie, when you walk in with a different set of expectations, they're not quite sure how to deal with you. It's like being the new and rare animal in the zoo. They just stand and stare at you. Not sure what to make of you. We then have to show them what we do. But if you command with a friendly and kind touch, but are rather directive like your life depends on it, and you get great results, I have found that they fall into line rather quickly and then can't live without you and move like lightening each time they have an opening. Do you have a defined process outlined? If so, meet with them and guide by that. If you don't have a process defined which literally shows them how A moves to B which then moves to C and so on, then make one and live by it. People get processess. After all, hiring is one of the most important functions of a company.…; Added by Peter Ceccarelli at 7:23pm on January 27, 2010
