When a candidate lies on their resume, it's like hiding a puzzle piece. You think you've got the full picture, but something's not quite right. As a recruiter, it's our job to dig deeper and ask the tough questions. We need to uncover the truth and make sure the candidate's skills and experience align with the job requirements. Think about it, folks! With the rise of YouTube tutorials and online learning, it's easy for candidates to learn just enough to sound like they know what they're doing. But, we need to go beyond the surface level and explore their understanding of the software, protocols, and guidelines specific to the job. So, let's get interactive! When you're screening candidates, ask them specific questions about the software they've used in previous roles. Don't just stop at "Have you used WorkDay?" Ask follow-up questions like "Can you walk me through a time when you had to troubleshoot an issue in WorkDay?" or "How did you integrate UKG with other systems?" By asking these kinds of questions, we can uncover the truth about a candidate's experience and make informed hiring decisions. Let's solve the puzzle together and find the best fit for the job! #recruiterlife

A piece of advice to hiring managers out there… DON'T DELAY! ⏳ When hiring, time is your most valuable asset! Why is this? In delaying your decision, you could not only lose talent but potentially waste the time, energy, and investment you've already put into the hiring process. TIPS FOR HIRING 👇 ✅Provide feedback after the interview Delaying feedback after interviews can leave a candidate wondering "What went wrong?". Acting fast and providing prompt feedback means you're more likely to secure the skillset your organisation needs. ✅Communication is key Keep your Recruiter and candidate in the loop! If there are any changes of circumstance or the goal post shifts in any way, it's important that you communicate with your recruiter. This ensures everyone is on the same page and the hiring process runs as smoothly as possible. ✅Make a good impression After an offer is made is when the onboarding process begins. Even before your new employee arrives on their first day, it's important to start as you mean to go on. Making a good impression means establishing a relationship based on clear communication, transparency and trust from the outset. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To start the smooth hiring process, reach out to our team of ERP specialist recruiters by clicking the link below👇 https://lnkd.in/eQjuZ_by #ITWorksGermany #recruitment #HiringManager #TalentSearch #ERP

I have loved reading Darren Bush posts on ideas within the HR and TA Tech space and I have been thinking about this in more detail over the past few days. In todays HR / People space there is a lot of talk on systems and the interaction of HR and TA teams, including the systems. There is too much focus on thinking of the systems as separate and a lack of interconnectivity between the two at times (although Workday has some interesting propositions on this but in my mind still some way from having a complete integrated approach in best in class way) and then issues with data being shared between the two tools and in some instances a painful manual addition of data between the two. Here is the kicker for me HR/People isn't just about managing data; it's about nurturing talent, fostering culture, and driving organisational success and that includes TA. Here's how to bridge those seemingly troublesome gaps: 🌟 Integration Is Key: Rather than viewing ATS and HRIS as separate entities, think of them as interconnected modules within your talent ecosystem. Integrate them seamlessly to ensure a holistic view of your talent pipeline, from recruitment to development. 🌟 Data-Driven Decision-Making: Leverage the data generated by your HR tech stack to make informed decisions. ATS data can provide insights into recruitment effectiveness, while HRIS data can inform talent development strategies. Ensure you are merging the data aspects to give complete stories and not just one side. 🌟 Automation for Efficiency: Embrace automation not just for admin tasks but for enhancing the candidate and employee experience. Automate communication, onboarding, and even learning and development processes. 🌟 Focus on the Employee Journey: HR tech should enhance the entire employee journey, from attracting candidates to supporting their growth within the organization. Think about how each tool contributes to this journey. This one is really key, build employee personas and look at how their journey is shaped from seeing the role through to retiring / leaving the company, what are the touchpoints and issues within the processes / tech that can be solved. 🌟 Continuous Learning: Stay updated with the latest trends in HR tech. The field is constantly evolving, and adopting innovative solutions can give you a competitive edge. The future of HR tech isn't about plugging gaps; it's about creating a seamless, integrated, and people-centric ecosystem. It's about harnessing the true potential of HR tech to drive talent growth and organisational success. 📧 Connect with me if you have any questions or challenges on HR Tech Stack ======== #hrtech #hrmastery #digitaltransformation #futureofwork #talentacquisitionstrategy #ats #hris #recruitmenttech ======== ♻️ Re-share to increase engagement 🗣️ Comment with your thoughts and how you address key HR tech challenges ➕ Follow me for more content on People and Talent 📧 Connect with me to see how I can help you

Landing a top role without applying online... When you realise that you don’t have to rely on a bland, one-dimensional piece of paper (resume) and be a statistical anomaly in an ATS system to get you in front of the best employers in the world - you take back the power of being able to really demonstrate your actual value - your way. You get to be authentic, truthful and impactful.

As we kick into the 2nd work week of 2024 (for most), it’s that time of year when we sit down and start writing our ‘goals’ for the year. One of my professional goals for 2024 is to build stronger relationships with my clients. To do this I often talk to my clients about the idea of exclusivity. This idea is something many companies will shy away from due to fear of ‘missing out on candidates’ if they don’t have multiple agencies sourcing. (the good old spray and pray). This year why not look at partnering with one recruitment agency? The idea that the more agencies a business uses to recruit for a role the more talent they will have to choose from is a redundant concept. Studies have shown that the oversaturation we see for the same job in the market as well as the anonymity in fact puts potential talent off applying. Perhaps look at Partnering exclusively with your preferred agency who can take the time to know and understand your company's needs. Then sit back and reap the benefits of this relationship saving yourself from: -         Time consuming co-ordination -         Inconsistency -         Overlapping candidate submissions -         Difficulty building strong relationships -         Conflicting information -         Tracking your communication I am looking forward to what 2024 is going to bring for my candidates, clients and colleagues.
