The interview has always been our primary way of evaluating candidates and their abilities. But let’s face it: the time we have in an interview is limited so it’s hard to know how someone will fit in the team and whether they’ll excel in the role.     This is especially true in a space like sustainability, where the right hire isn’t just about being a technical fit. It’s about having passion for solving one of the biggest challenges on the planet today.     In this environment, the right candidate is a lot more than what you see on a resume or hear in an interview. Hiring authorities are looking for the soft skills that seem inconsequential in the interview process but are critical in doing the job.     How do you look for those skills in the interview process? What kinds of questions do great candidates ask hiring authorities?     In this #TalentHunters episode, host Vince Holt is joined by Dave Cook, a Senior Sustainability Leader at Owens Corning. He shares how Owens Corning is working towards their zero-waste in landfill aspiration and the large role talent plays in that.   #Sustainability #ManufacturingHiring #OwensCorning #SoftSkills #SustainableEnergy https://lnkd.in/dZYkTR9t

In today's #TalentHunters episode, host Vince Holt is joined by 45-year recruiting veteran, founder of The Marshall Plan and author of “The Phone Rang”, Bob Marshall. He shares where to focus our efforts if we want to thrive in this industry.  We might think technology is the greatest threat to the recruiting industry, but it isn’t in his opinion. The real issues we’re facing as an industry are a lot closer to home.    There are two types of jobs: can’t-help job orders and search assignments, and the majority of the industry can’t tell the difference.     Success comes from chasing the 4% of companies who truly need our services and recruiters are stuck chasing the 96% that waste their time.     Finding “Ace of Spades” clients and placements is the foundation of a solid desk. But most recruiters are avoiding the easiest way to find them - picking up the phone.     If we correct these 3 major issues, we can build businesses that last decades, and getting replaced by technology will never be an issue.     How do you separate bad job orders from the best opportunities? What’s the one question recruiters should ask more? How do you treat your desk as a manufacturing plant?  Interesting conversation and insights for our recruiting audience. #Recruiting #RecruiterLife #HR #Staffing #RecruitingTips https://lnkd.in/eD5vxxcW
