We virtually interview 15-25 candidates per week! Ever wonder what makes a candidate stand out to us or our clients? Here are a few best practices for nailing your next virtual interview: 💼 Professional, yet personalized virtual background: A clean background is essential, but add a touch of personality. A well-placed book, plant, or art piece can spark small talk and give a glimpse of who you are. 🔧 Pre-Interview Tech Run: Test your platform, audio, and video in advance. Also, have a backup plan like a hotspot to ensure smooth delivery if something goes wrong. Log onto the platform 5 minutes early! 👀 Virtual Body Language: Make eye contact by focusing on the camera. Use natural hand gestures and facial expressions to show enthusiasm and keep the conversation engaging. 🎧 Engage in Active Listening: Nodding, smiling, and brief verbal affirmations (“That’s a great point!”) show you're actively listening and engaged in the discussion. 📧 Send a Personalized Follow-Up: Go beyond the generic “thank you.” Include specific takeaways from the interview and highlight how your skills align with the role.

Happy HR Professionals Day!!
Cheers 🍺 to those hard working HR team members and THANK YOU for all that you do in making your organization wonderful 😀 Many HR Professionals that I meet share that they never sought out HR as a career choice, they merely "fell" into it. Did you? I sure did! I believe HR (along with Senior Leadership Teams) shapes the culture and set the stage for every organization. They truly are an imperative part of a successful organization!

Looking for a new job? Start first with your own internal network. 70-80% of job seekers find their jobs through connections with friends, family, neighbors, former colleagues, etc. How do you start the conversation? Casually mention "By the way, I'm starting to look for a new job in the (industry/field). If you hear of anything interesting, let me know" Be genuine, keep it brief, be specific and express gratitude! You never know where it may lead you! #newjob #hiring #recruiting
