Every time a hire is made successfully, it’s a combination of the right opportunity at the right time for both the candidate and the organization. A candidate is at the right place to move to the next step in their career and the organization offers an opportunity that meets the thresholds that the candidate desires.
When both the candidate’s and organization’s needs match up, it’s a glorious thing. However, there are many instances in which the timing doesn’t meet up and…

Here’s a scenario that happens way too often. A company buys a brand-new shiny piece of software that they are really excited about all the functionality and think will have a great impact on their organization. They implement it with their providers help and then a few months later it’s sitting their available but most of the product goes unused.
Does this sound familiar? No matter if you are large or small this has probably happened at a company you’ve worked for and may be…

Recruiting is not just a quality game but it’s a numbers game as well. For any large to medium size organization recruiting is a continuous cycle of engaging and trying to find that right candidate for an open position.
Unless you have a dedicated sourcing team that proactively goes to find candidates that fit your organization, you are most likely relying on a recruitment advertising strategy of trying to reach the right candidates. With these initiatives, you are really…

Talent Networks or as they are sometimes called Talent Communities (we explain the difference here) are an important trend developing in the recruitment marketing space.

If you have been around the HR & Recruiting blogosphere long enough (or been to enough conference booths) you’ve probably heard about Talent Networks or Talent Communities. Both were born out of the concept that every recruitment or sourcing campaign you run should not only be about finding applicants for a specific job but also be about building a collection of talent that you can engage with and leverage when recruiting for future positions. And while both aim to achieve this same…

Yesterday, I had a brief but great conversation with Kyle Lagunas on Candidate Experience (which he’s going to be tackling on his awesome blog over the next few weeks). We talked about some cool things organizations are doing as well as major problems that exist in the industry with regards to Candidate Experience.
What became apparent in the conversation, however, was that we…

Candidate Experience is one of the biggest hot button issues in recruiting. Most recruiters can agree it’s important, but there’s a lot of discussion on what you can to improve your overall candidate experience.
But while it’s important to think about what YOU can do to improve your candidate experience, the question that I think is just as important to answer is:
What can we reasonably expect candidates to do in order to apply for a…

“We are getting too many applicants as it is”. This is a phrase I’m hearing more and more from recruitment marketing organizations. Organizations feel this way for a few reasons:
1. They feel their recruiters are swamped as it is and additional screening would just add to the work pile.
2. They are currently hiring candidates that are good or acceptable for…

I know I’ve been speaking a lot about Talent Communities on this blog lately but for this post I’m going to use a term I like better, which is Talent Network. A Talent Network is a collection of candidates that your organization engages with from a recruiting perspective. The engagement is bi-directional with the hope being that you not only engage with the individual but you are eventually able to engage with the individual’s network as well. It is not a community in the sense of the…

So you’ve built up your Talent Community or Talent Network and gained a significant amount of followers on your Twitter profile and Facebook page. The question is what do you do next?
The answer to this question you’ve heard a thousand times: engage!
When I talk about engagement I mean a few things. First, it’s the bi-directional communication you have with a candidate to promote your company opportunities, understand their qualifications & skill-sets…
