Topic: Female recruiters better at salary negotiation: proportion of female directors are more profitable and efficient than those with the lowest." Will we see a higher number of women entering the recruitment space? Will Executive management be biased when hiring an HR leader for their organization? ******************************************************************************************** Female recruiters better at salary negotiation- www.Recruitmenttimes.com article Female recruiters are better at negotiating their salaries - that’s according to a snapshot poll undertaken by Perriam & Everett, the consultancy which places recruiters, resourcers and headhunters worldwide. The poll asked owner - managers and directors of recruitment consultancies a number of questions regarding gender differences within their organisation. Most organisations (98%) said that the top performers in their organisations were pretty evenly split between men and women. There was also a healthy percentage of women in top jobs with over three quarters of respondents ( 78%) saying that half or more of their senior roles were held by females. One national finance recruiter said that four out of five of its regional directors were women. Interestingly, almost two thirds (64%) of respondents said that women were better at negotiating their salaries then men. “Men tend to focus more on the money they have earned in fees while women are better at using their softer skills to show how they add value more holistically through leadership, mentoring, and problem solving or customer service” said one respondent. “I find that often, women tend to drill down much more quickly to what they have actually achieved and, importantly what else they have contributed - while sometimes men concentrate solely on hard targets and numbers,” said another respondent “It’s these ‘softer’ skills that can really make a difference to an organisation’s bottom line”, says Aisling Tighe, Managing Director of Perriam & Everett. “Evidence of a link between profitability and women at the top is growing. Recent research from McKinsey & Co found that European companies with the highest proportion of women in influential leadership roles do better than their sector average in terms of return on equity, operating results and share price growth. Across the pond, a study by Catalyst, the US research body, found that companies with the highest proportion of female directors are more profitable and efficient than those with the lowest.” “Given all the column inches devoted to the gender pay gap and the ubiquitous ‘glass ceiling’, it’s good to see that the recruitment sector is championing the business case for gender diversity and that women, often criticised for not always asking for what may be due to them, are beginning to lead rather than follow in the salary negotiation stakes!”…; Added by 01.

I have to be honest here, I am just looking for a friend, a female friend. Because of the nature of my work I did not have enough time and as a result my love and social life suffered.

Comment on: Blog Post 'Body Language During An Interview': ngerous idea of subconsciously placing a very high importance of my first impression. We sometimes think we can qualify a candidate within a few minutes. I found it often very humbling to reason such decisions back to the how and why.Seeing that a decision was in fact based on the looks and friendliness of attractive female is sobering, and white socks are not always a sign of an inferior candidate. I do exaggerate a bit here, but seeing myself and fellow recruiters fall in the same semi conscious trap is fascinating.…; Added by Hans Dekker at 9:12am on July 20, 2008

Topic: Men affected more by graduate unemployment: sis by the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI) may be of interest to those looking to outsource back office services such as recruitment agency timesheet management to an agency. According to the organisation, graduate unemployment has worsened significantly for both male and female job hunters in just one year, but the former appear to be particularly affected. Overall unemployment for university leavers has increased by 25 per cent, from 11.1 per cent in December 2008 to 14 per cent in December 2009. However, 17.2 per cent of young male graduates were without a job in December 2009, compared to just 11.2 per cent of females. The HEPI went on to reveal that despite the male population being larger, just under half (44 per cent) of graduate jobs are held by men. According to the body, their disadvantage "appears to arise from their lower participation in higher education, and their subsequent performance there". The High Fliers survey of 100 top employers recently revealed that up to 270 students are competing for every single opportunity in the consumer goods industry.…; Added by Stewart Roberts to Total Back Office Solutions Limited at 7:46am on July 6, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'If i Ruled the World of Recruiting..I Would...': de in my questioning to my candidates the following killer question... "On average 90% of a candidates resume is the truth and nothing but the truth, 10% of a candidates resume is fabricated and does not provide the full picture, Mr Candidate what part of your resume represents the 10% ?" Now as for clients, they should learn some lessons in how to create a good impression of their company, it seems that clients tend to think that they are very much in the driving seat when it comes to the hiring process, but currently there is a skills shortage and the client needs to be fully aware that he/she is selling themselves and their company as much as the candidate is trying to impress them. One final point, as well as suggesting the candidate goes through a "what not to wear" process... how about the candidate also goes through a hygiene process too!! In my career as a recruiter I have had at least half a dozen clients inform me that due to body odour they were not able to progress the candidates application further.. Now how much is a can of deodorant these days hey?... And as for the female candidate with stiletto heals and a low cut bra don't even get me started!
