Last week, an interesting article titled "Landing a Job Is All About Who You Know (Again)" was published in the Wall Street Journal. The article mentioned a case where a company received 983 job applications for a position, but did not hire anyone from those applications. Similar situations have been observed by us before, none as extreme as this. In one instance, a person applied for a position along with 611 other applicants and received a call for an interview within 4 hours. She was eventually hired and will start working on June 8th, but it's evident that she was lucky. It's hard to believe that the company's HR team could review 611 resumes and select hers within just 4 hours. Can you count on being that lucky in your job search, or in looking for talent? Can your HR Department successfully sort through hundreds of resumes and find those that have the skills and experience needed? Feel free to reach out to us, and we can discuss strategies for connecting qualified candidates directly with the engineering teams to ensure that they receive proper consideration. https://lnkd.in/gsgVm5Yb

Crazy idea No. 263,731: have companies pay for job listings by the number of applications received. You can cast that wide net with minimal information, sure, but be willing to pay for thousands of unqualified applicants. Or, craft a surgical listing with more complete information and get 7 highly qualified applicants ready to be interviewed. It's not like companies shouldn't already see a value in pre-qualifying applicants, but maybe some need a little more help in the analysis?

Well said, as usual. I think of this often from a math perspective. On a regular basis I see RE-posted jobs here with over 100 applications after also getting 100 on the first go 'round. So let's keep it simple - and these are total guesses: 200 resumes - let's assume half aren't qualified/resumes don't pass ATS Out of 100 remaining resumes - let's assume they like 15 from each round so 30 left for screening/Round 1 Out of 15 per Round 1, assume they want 5-6 to actually make Round 2 (?...again, guesses) so 12 left or 6% Still no one hired - something's amiss. Sabotage, indecision, scope creep, poor job description. Possibility of a fake listing? Crazy.

Spread the word.

On average, recruiters have made up their mind about the candidate within the first minute. The most effective way to get placed into the “yes” pile is by tailoring your resume to each position you’re applying for. Learn how: https://lnkd.in/evqeYMVe
