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…

Airlines are complaining about a pilot shortage. A recent article stated that the shortage is best understood as an obvious manifestation-and perhaps the nadir-of a long-term deprofessionalization of what was once a solidly middle-class career: We made the pilot occupation so unattractive, so tenuous and poorly paid, that people stopped wanting to do it.
That’s how you shrink a candidate pool.

It’s that time of year again. Fantasy Football. Seems like it is everywhere. The popularity of fantasy football shows how fun it is to put together an unrealistic team and to go compete with it.
Falling into that mode in your recruiting program can be a big mistake. Fantasy teams aren’t real, but great teams are. You can’t build a dream fantasy team in your business, but you can build a great team that is incredibly productive. Trying to build a fantasy team in business diverts…

Ah, phone screens! That special time for HR and job applicants to get to know each other over the course of an awkward call.
It’s the hiring equivalent of a phone call before meeting your Tinder match in real life. It’d be nice to get right to dinner and drinks, but first, you have to make sure your…

Browsing Twitter one day I came across a pretty senior level role for a prominent UK organisation. Nothing unusual there. But, upon reading through the job advertisement it soon became apparent that no thought whatsoever had gone into its make-up. Indeed, this job post was over 200 lines long and consisted purely of dull cut and pasted, bullet-pointed content lifted straight…

Among the many buzzwords circulating throughout the recruiting and staffing industry, none perhaps is said with more trepidation and contempt than millennials. The term for many a hiring manager and seasoned recruiter conjures images of some bearded hipster who wants to bring his two dogs and papoose-bound newborn to work. And while that image may not always…

John Wooden, famous UCLA basketball coach and one of the greatest coaches in any sport ever used to preach that you must focus only on the things that you can control.
Great advice for hiring managers and recruiters. You can’t control a turn down. You can impact it by providing an attractive opportunity and offer, but you still can’t control it. You can’t control a crazy salary demand and you definitely can’t control the size of the candidate pool for a certain skill…

Lost productivity due to eclipse watching was reportedly over 700 million dollars. That’s a day off or two for a bunch of people. Not everyone, but that’s a lot of productivity out the door. With the recent hurricanes we have a bunch of days off for fewer people, but still a lot of lost productivity.
These numbers are minor compared with the lost productivity that we see every day from poor effort, lack of effort, and wasted time. Employees who are dedicated and work hard are…

Education has no limits or ends. Whether you’re an authority in your field or just a fresh graduate, there is no point in time when one can say that they have reached the brims of education. Thus, the nature of education is that it’s ongoing. There is always something new to learn in virtually all aspects of life. The same…

Your resume is a work of art. Your cover letter is perfect. And no one fits this job better than you.
But here goes the problem:
You're a 100% introvert who, put it nicely, doesn't like ongoing interactions, greetings, handshakes, questions, and being the center of attention. In other words, you can't stand anything related to successful job interviews.
Yes, it's tough. It's stressful, challenging, and terrifying. But no matter how introverted you are, you won't be able…

The way of Recruitment has changed dramatically over recent years. In the world of recruitment people start using social media in talent acquisition.
When people think of social media as a recruitment tool, they immediately think of LinkedIn or facebook. Actually both are the social media tools and are primarily targeted at the jobs space; however, social media provides many more channels to recruiters than…

Making a strong impression during an interview makes or breaks your chances at landing a job. Being called in for an interview is always a good sign. Based on what the employer has seen on a resume, he/she thinks you might be a good fit. The interview, however, has to go over extremely well in order to receive a job…
