To Talent Acquisition Specialists, Recruiters and Hiring Managers out there: If you're not providing detailed feedback after an interview, please refrain from mentioning it in the rejection email. Candidates are eager to learn and improve, so a vague response like "we found someone with more aligned experience" doesn't offer much value or peace of mind. #talentacquisition #feedbackmatters

If you want to beat your competition on hiring talent, in this market, you should be able to do one thing... Make a decision. If you don't have: 🟢 Approvals to go to market 🟢 Approvals for budget/salary to offer 🟢 A clear interview process 🟢 Know who's involved in your interviews 🟢 A clear feedback loop with your recruitment partner 🟢 A clear value proposition Then please don't go to market. It is imperative you get i's dotted and t's crossed so you can ensure you are able to trump your competition, and create a good experience for people involved.

Most hiring managers are terrible interviewers! Controversial? I don’t think so. · They have little to no access to interview training; · Time poor to prepare properly; · Often there isn’t alignment internally with different stakeholders; · Rely on “gut-feel” and whether they “liked” a candidate; · Off-the-shelf questions that aren’t tailored to the role and outcomes. When you work with a retained recruiter, you invest in their highly developed interviewing and assessment skills. They’ll work with the hiring manager and other stakeholders to get to the core values, behaviors and outcomes of a role and person and use this to tailor specific assessments for candidates to ensure that any candidate decision is based on data points to help support a hiring decision. Personally, I love interviewing people, it’s one of the best parts of working in executive search. Most find it a chore. #assessment #executivesearch #datadrivendecisionmaking #positivehiringoutcomes

When it comes to hiring, speed is key. As long as it doesn't come at the expense of: - a thorough evaluation of the market - a curated, controlled hiring narrative - an objective assessment process - a well thought out interview scorecard - transparent feedback at all stages. Those are your non negotiables, no matter how urgent the hire. Anything I've missed? #hiring #recruitment #speed

https://lnkd.in/g7ztT3H2 Hiring Managers: Maximize your Time During the Interview Process Distractions during the interview process are unavoidable. How can you better ensure you are investing your time toward the optimal outcome? Before starting your search, get clear on what you want and why in your candidate profile, and on key details about the opportunity that will be important to candidates. If any of these details change throughout the process, you will have invested a lot of your time, and likely others on your team, for a fruitless effort. Happy Interviewing.
