A Candidate's Interview Body Language

As we all know, actions speak louder than words. While you may be saying one thing, your body may be saying the complete opposite. So the next time you interview a potential candidate, focus not only on what they are saying, but what they are doing while they are saying it. Eye Contact: Eye contact helps to regulate the flow of communication, increases credibility, and conveys interest. Swinging or Rocking Leg, or Tapping Fingers: Shows the candidate is bored and impatient. Sitting or Standin… Continue

Before arriving to your next business lunch, be sure to go over these tips: Business Lunch Etiquette Tip #1: Arrive Early You always want to arrive about fifteen minutes early to a business lunch.

Why Can't the Recruiting & Staffing Industry Operate More Like the Real Estate Industry?

In the real estate industry both buyer and seller can have a representative. A listing agent represents the seller after securing an exclusive right to market a property. A buyer’s agent works to find the right property that meets their client’s requirements. A listing agent will almost always post their listing with a multiple listing service (MLS) to achieve the maximum exposure for the listed property. A buyer’s agent knows to go to a MLS to see what properties are available that meet the buy… Continue

A Positive Candidate Experience

As a recruiter you have an important responsibility, one that should be understood and upheld at all times. You are the voice, the face, and the main point of contact for your company. More often than we care to admit we forget that our candidates are not a means to an end, that they are our clients as well. Regardless of wither a situation results in a hire or not, a positive candidate experience is a must every single time. I approach every conversation as an information gatherer and find the… Continue

Internet Makes Recruiters Wimps

The HR Capitalist claims that the internet has made recruiters into sissies. Between 2004 and 2006 everyone had an email account and checked it regularly. All that you, as a recruiter, had to do was email a job description to potential candidates and you would hear back from them toot sweet. Since 2007 everyone has more than one email address. And the email addresses on their old resumes are rarely checked so you have to tr… Continue

infoGIST vs. TalentHook vs. SourcePoint vs. DataFrenzy

If you use job boards to source candidates - including pay boards, free boards, Craigslist and LinkedIn - you can either go from one site to the next duplicating your searches or you can use a resume aggregator to compile them into a single list. It is a huge time saver if you are a frequent visitor to multiple sites. This posting is not going to be a comprehensive review of each of the four

TalentHook Review - Searching Multiple Job Boards Simultaneously

TalentHook (www.talenthook.com) is one of my favorite recruiting tools. While I only use a fraction of it's functionality, the parts that I use save me a tremendous amount of time.

Harness Abandonment to Improve the Job Seeker Experience

Earlier this month, I received an e-mail from ProFlowers offering me 20 percent off if I completed my order. About a week later, OpenTable sent me a note to let me know that I missed my restaurant reservation. Neither company seemed terribly curious why I bailed out of those transactions; rather, ProFlowers encouraged me to complete my order, and OpenTable was basically just sending me an FYI. If they would have asked, I would have told ProFlowers that its fees were too hig

Wanted: Director, Recruiting Analytics

Technology cannot solve the candidate source tracking crisis by itself. Part of the solution is human. Why? Some large companies with applicant tracking systems (ATS) very capable of automated candidate source tracking have no idea that capability exists. So the technology is there, but it is not being utilized. These are major retailers, educational institutions and Fortune 5

Three New Questions for Your ATS RFP

In talking with companies about their applicant tracking systems (ATS) and, often, their searches for a new or replacement ATS, a few questions have come up that I thought I would share. I don't get to work on ATS RFPs anymore, but it would be great to be able to see the answers to some of these. Question 1: How is your system optimized for search engines? If yes to any of the sub-questions below, please provide examples with your answers. 1a: Does it generate u
