Why should you have no more that 2 or 3 interview stages? Candidate Experience: Lengthy and complex interview processes can be taxing for candidates. Multiple stages can lead to fatigue, frustration, and a negative overall experience. A streamlined process with fewer stages can help maintain a positive candidate experience and reflect positively on your company. Time Efficiency: A shorter interview process saves time for both candidates and the hiring team. This is especially important when competing for top talent in a competitive job market. Candidates who are in high demand might lose interest if the process takes too long. Risk of Losing Candidates: The more stages in the interview process, the higher the chances of losing strong candidates to other opportunities. If the process is overly prolonged, candidates may receive and accept offers from other companies before your process is completed. Candidate Perception: A concise and efficient interview process can signal that your company values efficiency and respects candidates' time. On the other hand, an overly complex process can give the impression of indecision or disorganisation. Limited Additional Insight: Beyond the second interview, additional stages may not necessarily provide significantly more insight into a candidate's suitability for the role. Often, the core competencies and cultural fit can be assessed within the first or second round. Market Competitiveness: In a competitive job market, candidates may receive multiple offers simultaneously. A shorter interview process allows you to make offers more quickly and secure top candidates before they commit elsewhere. Flexibility and Adaptability: With a two-stage process, your company can adapt more quickly to changing market conditions, business needs, or unexpected developments.

What a wholesome weekend. Filled with kids fun and seeing one of my oldest friends and his family. A house full of children was not quiet, but quiet’s boring anyway. I can say this though, Monday was a day of rest and tidying! Who else came into the short week ready to tackle your goals?

🚀 New Blog Alert: "The Importance of Face-to-Face Meetings in Sales" In our digital world, virtual meetings are convenient, but face-to-face interactions offer unique benefits that are hard to match. Here’s why in-person meetings still matter: 👥 Build Trust & Rapport: Face-to-face meetings help establish stronger, more personal connections. 87% of managers believe they’re crucial for building trust and rapport. 👀 Read Non-Verbal Cues: Over 55% of communication is non-verbal. Meeting in person allows you to pick up on body language and subtle cues that can guide your sales approach. 🎯 Make It Memorable: Personal interactions create lasting impressions. Face-to-face meetings, with their personal touches, are remembered more vividly than virtual ones. We also chatted with Mike Leather, National Sales Manager, who shares his insights on the competitive advantage of holding face to face meetings. 💡 Want more details?

The average time it takes to fill a vacancy is 23 days. Having the right sales team in place is critical to driving growth and achieving your goals. However, the process of hiring top sales talent can often be time-consuming, causing your business to lose momentum. A slow recruitment process not only risks missing out on the best candidates but can also lead to gaps in your sales efforts that impact your bottom line. Here are five proven strategies to streamline your recruitment: 1. Consider internal candidates: Promoting from within saves time, boosts morale, and shows a clear career path. Internal hires already know the company, reducing onboarding time. 2. Pre-screen effectively: Use industry-specific tasks or skills tests to quickly identify top candidates, filtering out those who aren’t a fit. 3. Stay flexible with interviews: In a candidate-driven market, offer video interviews and flexible scheduling to speed up hiring and secure top talent. 4. Use specialised job boards: Focus on job boards tailored to sales professionals to attract more qualified candidates and avoid overwhelming applications. 👉Read more: https://lnkd.in/emHCdUEp We are experts in sales recruitment.

Being off work makes me realise how much I do love my job, the office and my team! Hoping after my paternity I won’t be too exhausted…. But for now, time to kick back and role with the punches that are to come. No more BD for a couple of weeks 😟

Couldn’t agree more this one!
Overthinking stems from trying to make perfect decisions in a world where perfect decisions only exist in hindsight. Do you agree? Let me know your thoughts in the comments 👇🏾

Underperforming salespeople create lost opportunities, poor morale, and wasted resources. When faced with an underperforming employee, the instinct may be to lean on formal training. However, while training is valuable, it doesn’t always address the root cause of performance issues. How can you coach and motivate salespeople to be more successful? 💪Get them to think about their strengths and successes. 🥅Involve employees in their own goals and ask them where they want to be in 6 months. 💡Isolate the problems - get your employees to open up about how they think their performing. 👫Gain commitment for change – once the problem has been isolated get them to create a long-term development plan. 🧠Have regular sessions to discuss the development plan, such as how it's going, and what hasn’t been working. 📢Creating a culture of feedback - Normalise feedback as a growth tool, not a failure indicator. 📖Provide ongoing support and resources - Regular check-ins and additional development opportunities are crucial for continuous improvement. 🤝Establish trust among salespeople - Show you care about your team members' success by knowing their professional goals and offering both praise and constructive feedback.

Had a brilliant conversation with my manager Mike Leather the other week… We spoke about the misconception that working a lot is seen as culturally unhealthy. Why is it unhealthy? If you enjoy doing something why stop? Yes, time off in the evenings to spend with the family is important, you need balance. I see it as getting a competitive edge! Do you agree?

Really into my podcasts at the minute and key idea I have taken away and implemented is…. Give yourself 3 NONENEGOTIABLES each day! It gives your day direction and adds value to your small tasks throughout the day. It also makes you think of your tasks in order of importance. I ask myself “is this action going to take me closer to completing one of my nonenegiables?” No - reprioritise task Yes - attack task!!!
