Sandra McCartt commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"If you think that the relationship is tranactional with candidates only being inventory in your database, try this thought. If you warehouse inventory for future sale, that inventory has to be counted, kept current, dusted off and relevant to the…"
Louella Machado commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"Great idea indeed! Candidate care is an important aspect and comes with its own benefits for both parties!"
Anna Hodges commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"I do agree, for sure, Michael. But the quality of your database is based on not only the original information, but how accurate and updated your details are on it. What you put in is what you get out!!"
Michael Webb commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"Well, I guess it's a start, but the real deal is on my blog - DataBases. Hope you agree Anna."
Anna Hodges commented on Adam Lewis's blog post 'Why did that Recruitment Agency win the Placement?'"Ha - love the comments. Although Thyaga, I have looked at a couple of your comments and sometimes you come across a little jaded! Have you been in the industry too long or are you just a bit skeptical?
Re the Agency VS Consultancy situation - not…"
Anna Hodges commented on Brian Keith's blog post '12 attributes of kick-ass recruiters!!!'"Really well - everyone got different aspects out of each point and some points related directly to specific people which was quite funny! We also talked about self-awareness and how we present ourselves to clients and candidates which worked in…"
Anna Hodges commented on Brian Keith's blog post '12 attributes of kick-ass recruiters!!!'"I really love this posting - I hope you don't mind but I did actually use it in a training session this morning with our business!!! It was very inspiring and got us all thinking about what we do well and not so well in our jobs and what we…"
Leah Mahtani commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"Fantastic idea, especially if you operate in the senior marketplace and candidates will become clients. When I was still running a desk, a colleague registered a senior Director of Finance and kept in touch with him throughout the process. We never…"
Thyaga commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"Engagement between a recruiter and a candidate is transactional in nature, meaning with out a reason (a targeted opportunity) I think neither party will be motivated to have a useful conversation."
Fran Hogan commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"It is most definitely a great idea. If you can't motivate your group to do this for the candidate's sake then perhaps they might be interested in the other benefits it can provide. Keeping in touch with your candidates keeps you in touch…"
"Ditto Anna, this is a lovely idea and I love the fact that YOU care about what your candidates think and feel about you and your business. We've done it here before and frankly not enough. I think the trick is to find ways where candidate care…"
Chris Fleek commented on Anna Hodges's blog post 'Candidate Care'"I like the idea of a concerted "blitz" of candidate contact on a regular basis. Assuming you might already be closely connected to your "gold" prospects, this might be most effective with the other candidates who aren't…"
Anna Hodges commented on Adam Lewis's blog post 'Why did that Recruitment Agency win the Placement?'"Doesn't this come back to the old "chicken or the egg" or "nature versus nurture" debates? :) I honestly think it is a mixture of both and it is a very difficult balance to manage. Each person recruits in their own way and…"

Candidate Care
Posted on June 29, 2010 at 5:39pm 10 Comments 0 Likes
We had an interesting scenario in our office the other day. A new-ish Consultant had a complaint from a candidate about not being contacted in what he perceived to be a timely manner. And perception is what it is all about. We throw around this word a lot but really it is the crux of what we do. In such an subjective job, although every Consultant is theoretically doing the same job, we are identifying different skills in our candidates and relating differently to each of…
