NEW HIRES: HOW TO FIND THEM, HOW TO KEEP THEM
| |
| How do you reduce turnover? One way is to eliminate much of the subjectivity of the selection process. Once an employer has attracted a pool of qualified candidates for a job opening, choosing the one candidate that best fits the job is often the result of subjective processes. Companies typically spend hours objectively analyzing the benefits of purchasing a new piece of equipment, but they often spend far less time interviewing candidates, the results of which are often based on subjective feelings as to which candidates seem to be the best. |

Why You Should Include Open Source Work in Your Portfolio
| |
| Very recently, one of our product architects posted a job opening on our site to find an additional engineer to add to our growing team (in a remote provider capacity). He received inquiries from a number of interested freelance provider candidates and then proceeded to interview to find the top provider for the team.
Once he had narrowed the list down to just a few freelance provider candidates, he researched their work history in more detail, finally selecting a particular candidate in India largely based on an example of his work.
What it ultimately came down for my co-worker in his freelance selection process was reviewing prior work on open-source projects.
Why should you care about open-source work? |

The Physics of Recruiting- Be A Magnet for Talent

| If YOU (as the recruiter, HR, or hiring manager) are being the magnet, then you should be able to attract the "right" candidates and repulse the wrong candidates. Are you with me? So, as you go through your slate of candidates, you don't necessarily want the candidates you think are saying all the right things. Anyone can practice to do well in an interview. What you need to be looking for are those candidates who have the experience on paper AND who can bring something different to the organization. |

You've Got To Move It, Move It
| |
| While it is true there are a lot of people looking for employment, employers need to consider that this works against them if they are slow to act. In the last month, I have lost 3 candidates who were very interested in the job but because someone else was faster in presenting an offer of employment they were gone. In this economy, people are less interested in finding the 'perfect' job and more interested in paying the bills. You might have a great company and be a super manager but "You’ve got to move it, move it..." |

10 Reasons - Don't Worry When Sales Candidates Don't Take the Test
| |
| We instruct clients to have their sales candidates take the Sales Candidate assessment very early in the recruiting process. It's the first step after the client receives their resumes. Clients carefully spell out exactly how the entire process will work and explain that the assessment is simply the first step.
