As a long time recruiter, I have been privy to all the secrets that we hold as recruiters and I believe that for modern-day recruiting – we need transparency.
What do I mean? Here are three examples off the top of my head:

Suddenly followers retweet the link and the job advert reaches hundreds if not thousands of people in a single…

Skipping all suspense, I will just say that the minimum requirement for improving quality of hire is that the quality of the hire is measured.
As Peter Drucker said,
If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.
Well, duh (some of you might be thinking). I know…it seems obvious. However, do you get any reports on how well your hires are…

Scouting for talented individuals has never been simple and so for recruiters to advertise job specs to get the word out for a vacancy to be filled is just as difficult without cost effective methods. While most recruiters prefer traditional methods of recruiting as against modern ones, the efficient and cost effective method of recruiting that is now making the…

So, you are done with the preparation of your resume but then, you are some major flaws in it. Life is an unpredictable journey. It might just have happened that your previous work didn’t end on good terms or there is a hole in the history of your career.

Everyone – I mean every recruiter, manager, interviewer, interviewee, et al – has an opinion about what should happen in a job interview. Opinions aside, I want to explore one thing that should rarely, if ever, happen. Few exceptions withstanding, I’m going to say that you shouldn’t make a decision during, or even shortly after, an interview. That’s it. Could end right here,…

Instagram has a new API. Now, I'm confident that most people in the recruiting industry go "oh, ok" and move on because it just doesn't really matter to their recruiting and employee engagement efforts.
Yet.
This API is an indicator that maybe we should start paying attention to how we can reach our audience on Instagram; we don't have to let the marketers have…

Today’s candidate finding your job description on your company careers page is not going to be their first interaction with your brand. More than likely that candidate has done some research on you long before they ever make it to the apply stage. Today’s candidate will dig into your social media accounts to know what the culture is like, they’re connecting with your…

Most resumes suck. And, most job descriptions suck equally or worse. Let's put that stake in the ground. It's a miracle companies ever find candidates for open positions who have any chance of succeeding long-term. Most companies don't know how to articulate what they want and most interviewers wouldn't know it if they saw it. I guess dumb luck must play some role in the…
