Raj Sheth posted a blog postMaking Friends With Marketing: Why, When and How
If you're new to hiring, it may come as a shock that one of your biggest advocates might be in another department entirely. That's right, it's time to make friends with Marketing! Why (you ask with that perplexed look on your face) Maren, WHY would I need to make friends with the marketing pros at my company? They get attraction in a big way…See More
Raj Sheth posted a blog postThink Talent Pipelining in 3...2...1
Building a talent pipeline sounds like this really difficult, intense task and for that reason, many who are first in HR might think of it as an "advanced" activity. Nothing could be further from the truth. The very things that make talent pipelines successful are things that you can put in place from your very first day (and in fact, are often more effective that way!)Think pre-applicationThe…See More

Raj Sheth posted a blog postBuilding a Top Notch Compensation Policy
Compensation is a key component of any company's overall budget. I know it is here at Recruiterbox. How you compensate your employees affects your turnover, productivity and of course, your organization's profit. In most businesses, the compensation plan is left to the HR Department to enforce (i.e. making offers) but not necessarily to influence. This frustrates those tasked with hiring when the…See More
A blog post by Raj Sheth was featuredDear Candidate, I Love You
They're in your sights and now it's time to reel 'em in.There is no better feeling for a recruiter than finding that perfect candidate (except maybe when they accept an offer). But sometimes that perfect person is working in some other office. How to get them to notice you? Far from being dead, email is…See More
Maren Hogan commented on Raj Sheth's blog post 'First in HR: Know Your Numbers in Hiring'"If anything, most recruiters and HR pros that I speak to say time to hire (for bigger companies) is getting out past 45 days. The SHRM study from 2006 may be more optimistic!"

Raj Sheth commented on Raj Sheth's blog post 'First in HR: Know Your Numbers in Hiring'"Hello Mia,
Thanks for the comment! I did some extra research, and it seems to be about the same based on a couple different articles and surveys that I found. If you find anything different, I would love the information! Thank you again."
Mia Hirschel commented on Raj Sheth's blog post 'First in HR: Know Your Numbers in Hiring'"The article from SHRM was written in 2006, using data from 2004. It seems like average time to fill has increased since 2004! I would love some feedback, please!"
Raj Sheth posted a blog postFirst in HR: Know Your Numbers in Hiring
With any job, it's important to know where you stand and then set goals for yourself, and often times this is a numbers game. As the hiring manager, your goals need to be something tangible and quantitative. It's not enough to show the metrics of your busywork (humber of job ads posted, hours logged or resumes read).To prove your recruiting and hiring methods work, you need an idea of the averages…See More
Raj Sheth posted a blog postWhy More Candidates Isn't Better
These days, HR and Recruiting professionals seem to post new jobs everywhere, from niche sites, to job board aggregators to industry-specific landing pages and of course, all the social channels like LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook. This can put a new or startup hiring team in a quandary. Where to come up with hefty job board fees? What if we can't afford (or don't need) the sophisticated tools that LinkedIn has to offer? Finally, the most important question of all:Is having MORE candidates…See More
