Using Assessment Tests As A Hiring Tool

Part of every sales manager’s job is to add to the team. Hire new talent. You think you know what you’re looking for: that “spark,” that intangible “it” factor, that “something about this candidate” that tells your intuition that this is the one. You do look at resumes and previous sales figures (if they have them), but you also look for personality, drive, determination, and people skills. Not exactly an exact science, is it? There’s lots of room for error. So how do you combat that… Continue

Is anyone out there?

Good Morning, all.

Following Katrina in 2005, I relocated to West Hollywood, CA with my band from New Orleans and fell into recruiting in Downtown LA; I haven't stopped playing music and placing people since, haha.

I'm new here and am looking to link up with other recruiters to expand my market intel and to help minimize delivery time for some of my tougher requirements- namely DoD clearance level positions- a huge thorn in my side. One of my other passions is helping… Continue

Frustration is spelled R.E.S.U.M.E.

Someday I hope to find whoever instructs my 10+ year veteran consultants to turn their incredible careers into one condensed page of confusion – and kick them in the shin.

Now I realize that there are SEVERAL schools of thought with regard to resume writing. Let’s face it – selling yourself on paper is probably one of the most difficult tasks other than perhaps – changing a tire without scratching your knuckles on the pavement. As the years have passed, I have found myself the career… Continue

The Art of University Hiring (part III)

Okay, so now let's take a look at our final 4 relationships and see what we can do to become more successful in recruiting on campuses and Universities.

Newspapers

This is an important relationship as well. Prior to the fair, advertising is key to let students know you are coming. Also take advantage of the fair packages they have and the commonly known “Career Fair Guide” that is usually separate from the normal paper or comes as an insert. This is a great way to… Continue

How would an Ideal Applicant Tracking System look like ?

Despite the widespread availability of applicant tracking and resume management solutions, none of

them really solves the hiring problem for businesses. Almost all the solutions come with high price

tags, and are bloated with features like ERP integration and succession planning that are irrelevant to

alot of businesses, leaving them with no choice but to rely on informal methods to manage job applications.

In my opinion an applicant tracking system should:

Making the Case for Executive Search

With the state of the current economy–I’ll go out on a limb and say virtually all companies–are toning down their forecasts for the coming year–battening down the hatchets so to speak. So why would anyone spend money on an executive search firm to find talent–particularly with unemployment running so high?

First, think of how hard it was to get approval to hire that open headcount. Clearly the business sees filling that role in this economy of paramount importance. Otherwise, you’d… Continue
