Finding a new job is hard! Make it a little bit easier on yourself by keeping track of your applications. At a minimum, track the company name, position title, physical location (or remote/hybrid), and compensation range. And if you move into the interview stage, save the name/contact info of the people you've talked to at the company. 📲 I love it when I call a candidate I've talked to before and they answer in a personalized way and are available to chat about next steps! 😍 #recruitertips #jobtips #recruitingadvice

Here's a common reaction to the recruiting plan of building a diverse pool of candidates, doing outreach to find folks who might not know about the org and the open role: "But, we want to hire the BEST candidate still, right?" Well, BEST comes from good sourcing and attracting - it's what great recruiters do. It is bad business, bad ethics, and frankly, lazy, to go with the "most comforting" candidate or the one found through a monoculture network. Do better than show ignorance to the boundless talent out there. Utilize good recruiters - who have mad BD skills. They are searchers, connectors, they paint an accurate picture of the "product," they turn over stones. Imagine telling Sales, "let's not look into new markets; let's not go in search of customers who don't know us yet; let's not find clients who will give us feedback on how to make our product better." That's what lazy hiring says. We aren't finding the BEST when straight, white, able-bodied men are filling roles that over-represent that demo in large rates. Also - Clean up your process: - BEST means good interviewing, and using a vetted scorecard to ensure "the best" person really does get found, hired, and paid accordingly. - BEST means that the scorecard includes critical SKILLS like creating a sense of belonging, being resourceful, respecting and elevating others, not the non-skill of years of experience. - BEST means a person who will enhance, challenge and grow your culture, not "be a good fit" Contact me if you want to improve your processes, train your hiring managers, and treat candidates like solution finders, not boxes to check.
