“Dear Candidate, We regret to inform you…” Dear Recruiter, We regret to inform you that the response from the candidates is still pending… indefinitely. 😅 It’s funny how we send out rejection emails daily, but when you’re waiting for that candidate’s response or feedback from the hiring manager, it feels like an endless game of patience. Is this the recruiter version of karma? 😂😆 Anyone else feel like they’re in an elternal waiting room? #RecruiterLife #HRHumor #TheWaitingGame #WorkStruggles #FunnyButTrue #HiringProcess

Thursday Tip! 🤙 Try not to follow up on your application every day. Wait at least two days after applying to ask for feedback. If you haven’t heard from your recruiter after a day, it’s probably because they haven’t heard from the client yet. Remember, it's not always your recruiter's fault. 🥲 #ThursdayTip #FollowingUp #GiveItTime #recruitment

Why you should stop 🛑 saying "We're like a family" in your interviews. 👎 Many #msps and vendors have a family-first employee centric culture that values ♥, appreciates 🤗 and rewards 🏆 their awesome staff members. We are reducing that value, and feeding into a toxic 🤢 bias by saying "We're like a family" instead of actually explaining why our team is so great. Stop selling your culture, benefits, and workplace short by saying "we're a family" and start talking about the things you ACTUALLY DO 🌟 that make your company so amazing to work at❕ Your prospective employees will love your refreshing, honest, and open description and you wont feed into biases you cant control. (And they will be less likely to make angry reddit posts about your MSP) You can totally be family-first, AND treat your employees like a whole person, without using this cheesy line that never communicates what we want it to. 🙉 #culture #hiring #interviews #loyalty Video 📽👉 https://lnkd.in/euud9iuR
Stop Telling Candidates "We're a Family"

When a job posting on LinkedIn shows the number of applicants, it refers to the number of clicks the posting has received. You become an applicant only when you apply for the position. Be sure to complete every section of the application, even if it means putting "N/A" where applicable. Do not put "see resume" (I know, it can be really frustrating to upload a resume and then put all the information in again). Missing information can cause your application to be rejected by the company's/recruiter's ATS system. I hope this helps!

Can someone explain to me how the job postings work? I see hundreds of positions that have well over 100 applicants but are months old. Is it possible that 100 applicants are not qualified for the position or is that the company has found or is still looking for the "by-name" person to apply? That said, where do we draw the line between wasting time on hopeless positions and filtering for positions that may have a viable chance?

How Can I Address a Pre-Adverse Letter About Job Discrepancies? Answers: https://lnkd.in/grQveB5D \#jobsearch \#backgroundcheck \#careertransition 🌟 Hey everyone! 😊 I’ve got a bit of a situation and could really use some advice. So, after going through a background check for a potential job offer, I received something called a pre-adverse letter. What does that even mean? 🤔 Apparently, they found some discrepancies regarding my last job, and now they want me to explain. Here’s the kicker: They mentioned I didn’t disclose a termination properly. In short, I was fired because I was juggling a career pivot from civil engineering to computer science while dealing with some personal issues. I didn’t handle the burnout well and ended up getting let go. 😔 I was anxious about fully explaining this in my background check, so I gave vague reasons for leaving. Here’s where I’m confused: \*\*What’s the best way to clarify this\*\* to the potential employer without making it sound like I’m making excuses? 🤷 \*\*Should I be upfront about my termination\*\*, or will that just hurt my chances? 😳 \*\*How do I address the fact that I might have not disclosed it correctly\...

“Thanks for your interest, but after careful consideration, we’ve decided not to proceed with your application.” A single line, that has crushed countless dreams, dimmed so much hope and left candidates wondering why. Dear Recruiters and Hiring Professionals, Imagine this: someone takes the time to create an account, verify it, upload their resume—only to manually type in the same details into your inefficient ATS. They answer question after question, some that have nothing to do with their ability to do the job. They repeat this process, hoping, waiting, and then… an automated rejection. No explanation. No feedback. Just silence. Where’s the “careful consideration”? Behind every application is a person who’s poured their time, energy, and aspirations into the process. They deserve more than just a “no.” They deserve to know why.

Let's talk about Red Flags... 👀 There are times where candidates send us red flags (without even knowing they are doing it), which therefore puts the candidate in the *do not work with* pile. Some of these red flags are so small & simple but when you make them, they say something BIG to someone who would consider hiring you. 1) When we make a post about a job on LinkedIn or send you an email about a job and within that post/email has some instructions you need to follow....and you go rogue/don't follow them #redflag -This shows that you didn't read the instructions and if you aren't going to read a few sentences from us, will you actually read and complete your work accurately. 2) Typos -Spelling mistakes on your resume and all communication + calling me "Allen" #redflag 3) Commitment issues (not in a relationship context but committing to getting things done by a certain date and time and not following through) -When I ask that you send me references or complete a skill test and I have to chase you/remind you to do it #redflag We are here to help you and want to show off all that you can do + everything you would bring to the job. Please make sure you are representing yourself in the best light and paying close attention to how you are being perceived. Best of luck on the job hunt!!! #recruiterlife #recruitment #winnipegjobs #winnipegroles
