US Recruitment Fundamentals
Recruitment Lifecycle:
There are 6 crucial steps of recruitment life cycle
Preparing
Sourcing
Screening
Selecting
Hiring
On boarding
Preparing:
First of all before going to start any task we should have a prior preparation pattern so, likewise in recruitment as well.
Every recruiter must have a clear understanding of job roles and responsibilities which is provided by respective
client(Direct client)/implementation partner. Recruiter should have an idea about the client profile/domain.
Sourcing:
Yeah !! This comes the first and foremost a recruiter will have direct encounter with the job roles and his skills of
sourcing . Sourcing is defined as getting/grabbing/finding/fetching resumes with respective to the job roles.
Screening:
As the name itself reveals that a recruiter should screen the candidate’s level of expertise in their respective field ,
his/her work authorization status/ willing to relocate / Are they looking for relocate etc.., many factors
Selecting:
If all the above steps goes well then the recruiter is supposed to submit the candidate's resume to his account
manager/Team lead or higher authorities ..then they will share the resume with the client , if everything is on good
path i.e (interviews, BGC ) client will hire him.
Hiring:
Right after the Selecting process here comes the hiring which is mainly depends on negotiation and job offer. As soon as the
client finds his/her best fit for the role they should convey the message by call or by sending the offer letter that they are
going to hire him if not there is a chance of backing off the offer by the candidate.
On boarding:
As this is the last step of the recruitment cycle but it’s most important one of all above because there might be
chances even after the client offer the best salary/pay rates along with the benefits candidates might not be interested to take
the offer because of their personal issues/sudden plans etc.., so every step of the recruitment life cycle is crucial .
2
US Tax Terms
Tax Terms plays a key role in US job market / USIT Recruitment so in-order to have good understanding about US
recruitment , every recruiter must have knowledge about the US Tax Terms.
There are three (3) Tax Terms which are generally used in US Job market.
W2
C2C
1099
W2
With the W2 tax type, you are a contracted consultant. You are oftenpaid an hourly rate everytwo weeks through a
direct deposit.
Taxes:
Employer pays a portion of your taxes (Federal, Social Security, Medicare, State),which usually works out to be 8-9%.
Additionally, your employer withholds a portion of your paycheck for you to help pay your taxes.
For instance the person who is seeking a job opportunity with a valid work authorization (US Citizen/Green
card/H1B /OPT /TN visa etc..,) is termed as consultant /Candidate.
Like wise there are some staffing agencies who take these Consultants on their bench according to the interest of the
consultants .
if a H1B candidate is on one of the staffing company (“X” ) payroll (or made an agreement with an employer for a
certain period ) then this H1B Candidate is called as W2 of this (“X” ) Staffing firm Only Green card /US citizen/
EAD / TN Visa can work on W2 Tax Term
H1B are not allowed to work on W2 if they are in agreement with other employer but they are transferring their
Visa then they are allowed t work on W2. W2 Candidates will be some basic benefits by their employer
C2C :
C2C is one of the commonly used Tax Terms in the US , which is the most preferable Tax by most of the consultants .
C2C is an agreement betweentwo corporations. (Not individuals).Tax will be paid
by the corporation on behalf of their consultants .
H1B is the independent visa where they need someone to sponsor to stay in US so they will sign an agreement with their
preferred staffing firm , then this staffing firm has rights to market the H1B Resume.

Boolean Search
Boolean Search is a way to organise your search using a combination of keywords and the 3 main
Boolean operators (AND, OR and NOT), to produce more accurate and more relevant results for your candidate
searches on LinkedIn and beyond.
1.AND
2.OR
3.NOT
4.( )
5.“ ”
By applying these appropriately, along with the keywords you wish to consider, you can create a huge range of
search operations. There is no limit to how often you can use any of these elements in a search, so you can create very
specific search strings, which will save you a lot of time in filtering the results.
The AND Operator
Take these 2 groups. In the first group are all the people who have the keyword “recruitment” somewhere in their
LinkedIn profile. In the second, are all the people who have the keyword “HR” somewhere in their LinkedIn profile.
When we use the Boolean string:
Recruitment AND HR
We are asking the LinkedIn database to search for all of the people who include both the word
“recruitment” and the word “HR” on their LinkedIn profile.
The more criteria we add using the AND operator, the less people we will find with our search, because by using
AND we are narrowing our search. However, the people we do find from our search will be more relevant, as they
will possess both of those skills.
The OR Operator
In this example, one group of people have the keyword “Recruitment” in their LinkedIn profile, while the other have the
keyword “Recruiting”. Both words mean exactly the same thing to you and I and anyone using either of the two
terms to describe their job function or skillset on LinkedIn possessing exactly the same skillset, but to an electronic database
they are totally separate terms. When we use the Boolean string:
Recruitment OR Recruiting
We are asking the database to search for candidates who include either of the two terms in their
LinkedIn profile, or both terms simultaneously.
Therefore, by using OR we are broadening/expanding our search to encompass profiles that have one result or the
other or both.
Using OR enables us to find hidden talent e.g. people who have expressed their skills and experience in a
different way than you might normally search e.g. banking OR bank OR finance OR financial, because by using OR
we are broadening our search.
The NOT Operator
Like in the first example we used, one group of people have the keyword “Recruitment” in their
LinkedIn profile, while the other have the keyword “HR”. When we use the Boolean string:
Recruitment NOT HR
We are asking the database to search for candidates who have the word “Recruitment” in their profile, but to
exclude any candidates that also have the word “HR” in their profile and those who just have the word “HR” in
their profile.
Using NOT enables us to remove false positives from our candidate searches, as by using NOT we are filtering our
search and removing irrelevant results:
Brackets ()
When using Boolean search, there is no way to determine how the computer will solve our equation. This means that in
order to get the most relevant result for us, we have to use something called parentheses to tell the computer what
to solve first. This is where using brackets comes into our Boolean search.
7
Using brackets is essential for writing complex search strings, but it can be their application that causes the most
confusion amongst recruiters. Essentially, a clause within brackets is given priority over other elements around it. For
example, if I was given the following search:
talent OR hr AND recruitment
Do I mean to say I want to find someone who has either the keyword “talent” or the keyword “HR” on their profile, and has
the word “recruitment” too? Or do I mean that they have to have “talent” or the combination of “HR” and “recruitment”?
You see, the absence of brackets makes it impossible for the database to know what you mean. Watch how the meaning
changes when you add brackets.
In the following example, I have told the database that I need to find someone who has either “talent”
or “HR” or both, and that they also need to have “recruitment”: (talent OR
hr) AND recruitment
But in the following example, I have told the database that I need to find someone who has “talent” or a combination of
“recruitment” and “HR”:
talent OR (hr AND recruitment)
The most common place that brackets are applied by recruiters is in the use of OR strings.
Basically, if you’ve written OR somewhere in your search, think about where the brackets will go because their
placement will affect how the computer solves your Boolean
search query, which will affect search results you receive back.
Quotations “”
When using Boolean search, if the keyword you’re searching for needs to be considered as a whole word e.g. Software
Engineer , then it must be enclosed within quotation marks in your Boolean search string.
If not, the database will consider the space between the two words to be an AND and will search the database for two terms
– Software AND Engineer – and not what you want to search for which is the exact phrase “Software Engineer”.
In other words, you must use quotations wherever you have two or more words as a phrase in your Boolean search string
that you know for certain should be right beside one another like “Information Technology” or “Human Resources”, as
quotations define a number of words as one exact term.

Advanced Strategies in Recruitment
AI Recruitment
Technology has made many changes to each and every industry out there including Recruitment , as we see Recruitment
industry has gone through many changes but term AI (Artificial intelligence) has going to change the whole process of
recruitment.
What is AI?
AI is abbreviated as Artificial intelligence, as it defined as the part of modern science which will learn from
human actions and acts accordingly, Normally which is a computer which has learning, planning , executing
,problem solving skills.
AI has entered in to all the industries like Pharma, Chemical, Media , now is is the time of recruitment
industry to make the work more easier and flexible to source , screen , sending emails, make calls etc..,
How AI Works?
IBM was the company first introduced the term AI (Artificial industry), Normally AI will works with human
intelligence , going to details where it is a outcome of deep learning and machine learning , which inculcates the actions of
humans in no time and execute it.
How AI works in Recruiting industry ?
The basic responsibilities of recruiter are to source , screen , call , email , job posting, Now-a-days each recruiter is
following a basic formula to get his submission done i.e. as soon a the requirement comes to his inbox , for the first few
seconds he spends his time in the preparation of Job template , then few minutes in Posting job , sending bulk emails / Email
merges etc.., but when it is coming to AI (Artificial Intelligence) it is a computer machine which will learn actions
from recruiter like posting job , calling to candidates , Souring resumes , screening candidates will make all these
actions automatically without any much time .
AI Recruiting Software’s
Ideal
Smart Recruiters

AI
Textio
Recently Dice has implemented AI beta version which are being by most of the recruiters which consist main
section i.e. to source resumes by just pasting the job descriptions .
10
Advantages of AI in recruitment industry
Helps to source qualified resumes
Automate the Recruitment (screening, calling) Cost
effective recruiting .
Helps to source qualified resumes
As soon as the recruiter hunt for the candidate for the job , the first thing which attracts the job applicant is the
job description which is shared by the recruiter, if the job description is not well written and with minimal
information , there might be the chances that candidates would reject the job , but when the recruiter takes helps of AI
tool called Textio.com , which will makes the job description free of grammatical errors , revise the description with
alternate words and with proper sentence formation .
Automate the Recruitment (screening, calling)
As Recruiter are the busy persons , they spend a lot amount of time in finding the right candidates from job boards /social
sites / ATS/ through emails and through referral as well , all these works are done alone by the recruiter, sometime recruiter
tend to followup with the candidate on his interview schedule then that would be a mess , but when the recruiter takes help
of Recruiting bot which follow up with the candidates who are shortlisted by sending emails / sending message
which automatically makes recruiter job easy .
Cost effective recruiting
When comes to recruitment industry a normal startup company or a well grown company will have at least two(2) job
portals , one (1) ATS , one (1) SMS software altogether costs huge dollars but when a recruiter buys a single AI based
Recruitment software it is equal to all those all three softwares i.e. Job boards , ATS , SMS, so it is cost effective.
Recruiting Bot
Recruiting is a communication assistant which is similar to Alexa, Siri , Google NOW , Recent survey showed out of 3
persons 2 persons are likely to interact with bots .
For example a job is posted on non AI based portal in which candidate need to go to bottom of the post to apply for that ,
but if that is a AI based portal as soon as the candidates visits the posts AI will suggest whether to apply or not to apply
based o his resume and skills.
Introduce Referal Program
How to build Referrals ?
On the call:
First responsibility of a recruiter is to make calls to the prospective candidate , a few seconds before a recruiter closes the
call with the candidate , recruiter can ask for a referral for one of the job that which client is looking for.
Generic script for asking Referrals
Do you have any of your friends /colleagues looking for a job change ? if yes please share me the details that
would be highly appreciated
By creating a candidate free referral page online
As per the survey 70%of the population on the earth are mostly attracted to the web based content
,so this is the one of he way to get engage with the job seekers directly by creating an free page.
Have an Accurate Job Description
If you’re hiring in IT.
For the most part, Recruiters will get the job description from the clients end , which can make or break the
company’s search for talent. Problems arise when the job ad is not well written for a technical description such as
an Angular developer, for example. Unless you do some coding on the side and have previous industry experience, chances
are, you won’t know much about Angular.
If you take a look at this tweet, you’ll notice a candidate anonymously shaming a company for putting out an ad
requiring 8 years of Swift experience – a technology that has existed for merely 3 years. Errors such as these will do
more damage than a mean tweet. They make the companies hiring look incompetent, uninformed and downright
careless about their hiring processes.

How to Screen and Ways of
Screening the candidates
Dear Recruiters ,
We have been facing problems while talking to candidates in- regard to screening
what questions to ask and how to get clear and exact answer , you are going to learn few such kind of ways in the following
article .
What is Screening ?
Screening refers to verifying the basic details and documents which are provided by the candidate to make
sure everydetail of the candidate is in the proper way.
Type of Screening
Screening is divided into three main categories i.e..,
1.Resume Screening
2.Document screening
Resume Screening :
Resume is the Virtual face of the applicant (candidate ) ,so resume screening is the key in recruitment .
Resume screening :
Skillset
Experience
Education
Skillset : The first and the foremost thing which needs to check on the resume is the skillset (make sure it matches with the
client requirement )
Make sure to ask about their current project experience
For example what kind of domain is it ?
Are you an individual contributor or leading a team ? if leading a team what is the size of the team
Are they currently working with the skills which your client is looking for ?
Experience : Level of experience should be taken care , Try to ask the candidates the total yeras of experience and Take
an in detail years of experience from the candidate about his/ her skillset which your client is looking for.
Education: As every recruiter see that there will be a line mentioned in the job description provided by the client
saying the “ they need a person with a Bachelor’s degree but lots and lots of recruiter ignore those lines
but
make sure try not to ignore those lines and check with the candidate about his education details like …
What is his/her highest qualification along with the year of passing ? Name of the
University ?
Specialization along with their certifications in detail
Document Screening :
Document screening refers to verifying the documents (Visa , Passport , DL etc.,) which is provided by the candidate ,
which is a crucial part while working in Corp-to-corp business because there will be lots and lots of visa Tampering
issues which occurs daily in recruiter life
In Particular Recruiter should be aware of how different types of Visas look like and what are all the important
aspects to remember on the Visas and Drivers License

How to Build the vendor list
Vendor list is nothing more than the list of emails of sales recruiters. Vendor list is mostly used for C2C business which
usually every one of us will save these emails in the form Excel sheets as the technology has been changing so lets
try Google Docs to save our data.
#1 :
By Writing a post on LinkedIn saying that you are looking for Vendors to support your daily requirements.
I hope every recruiter out there, will have an account in LinkedIn because this is for LinkedIn users
. LinkedIn is the professional networking platform where there is a high scope of building a valuable human
network system
Just having an account in LinkedIn is nowhere case , you need to be active in building network
/Participating and joining the groups within your preferred domain this will help you a lot in your professional growth.
Coming to our main theme i.e building a great vendor list , as you build a network of sales recruiters then you
can able to get their details by using the below two generic scripts.
#1 Generic script on how to post on LinkedIn that you are looking for Vendors

C2C requirements on daily basis. Please comment your email id so that i can add you in my distribution list…..

#3 : Create a Google form to collect the vendor emails
Google forms are the best resource to collect information by creating Quiz , Polls, Opinions etc.., for free .
How to create a Google form
Visit :https://docs.google.com/forms
(If you haven’t logged in with your gmail , just login with your gmail Credentials.)
#4 Find emails in your Outlook inbox
On a daily basis every recruiter will receive around 30-40 emails per day on an average , out of those emails
most of them are from vendors , who are sharing their hot list ,collect these emails and save it in a excel sheet or
in a google doc.
Ways to Email to Vendors list
After collecting all the emails there is no use that , if you doesn’t send email to those email list . So here are the few ways
to send an email to your Vendor list.
Outlook:
As this the most common tool that every recruiter will use on daily basis to send emails which is connected with
the professional email addresses which is provided by the company ,
This is the best way to send emails to the consultants and to the sales recruiters but there is clause here , if the
recruiter send multiple emails via outlook at a time , outlook might not respond and your email address will be blocked
for a certain period.
Mailchimp:
Mailchimp is the free email marketing tool , to send multiple emails at a time by creating campaigns
with customized email templates.

Basically, the A in the form means that the change of the person’s status has been approved, signifying that the
applicant is allowed to stay in the US and will also be able to continue to work in the US. The I-797A always comes with an I-
94 attached, indicating the status to stay is approved.
Form I-797B
The form with a B attached at the of the 1-797 is issued to all applicants that either has never been to the US or those
applicants whose status could not get approved. So what does it mean for you if your status could not get approved?
In this case, you are seen as a person qualified for the job you applied for but you won’t be able to stay and work in the US
because you are either currently not in the US or you have committed some kind of immigration violation. An
immigration violation can indicate several different things. For instance, it can mean that your filing did not include
sufficient evidence to validate you can be legally employed. That is just one example – immigration violations encompass a
variety of acts committed by people who have not adhered to the proper immigration laws of the country.
If this happens to you, you would have to leave the country, go back home, and apply for the Visa at an American consulate
from your home country. At the American consulate, you will have to do an interview and submit additional
information proving your case to live in the US. Whether you will be able to go back to the US or not depends on the new
evidence you provide during your interview at the consulate.
Form I-797C
The I-797C form is only a copy of the already approved petition and is given to the applicant’s employer for their
reference file. The biggest difference between the I-797’S is that forms A and B are given to applicants only and form C is
given to the applicant’s employer.
In case you don’t receive the original notice of approval, you will be provided with a copy of the original form.
Form C, apart from being handed out as a reference file for employers, can also be issued to communicate receipt
of payments, rejections of applications, transfer of files, fingerprint biometric, interview and re-scheduled appointments, or
to reopen cases.
What is I94?
The Arrival and Departure Record is the I-94, in either paper or electronic format, issued by a
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officer to foreign visitors entering the United States.
What is SEVIS?
SEVIS stands for Student and Exchange Visitor Information System. It is a nationwide, Internet- based system that
the U.S. government uses to maintainaccurate and current information on non- immigrant students (F and M visa),
exchange visitors (J visa), and their dependents (F-2, M-2, and J-
2).

    1 US Recruitment Fundamentals RecruitmentLifecycle: There are 6 crucial steps of recruitment life cycle Preparing Sourcing Screening Selecting Hiring On boarding Preparing: First of all before going to start any task we should have a prior preparation pattern so, likewise in recruitment as well. Every recruiter must have a clear understanding of job roles and responsibilities which is provided by respective client(Direct client)/implementation partner. Recruiter should have an idea about the client profile/domain. Sourcing: Yeah !! This comes the first and foremost a recruiter will have direct encounter with the job roles and his skills of sourcing . Sourcing is defined as getting/grabbing/finding/fetching resumes with respective to the job roles. Screening: As the name itself reveals that a recruiter should screen the candidate’s level of expertise in their respective field , his/her work authorization status/ willing to relocate / Are they looking for relocate etc.., many factors Selecting: If all the above steps goes well then the recruiter is supposed to submit the candidate's resume to his account manager/Team lead or higher authorities ..then they will share the resume with the client , if everything is on good path i.e (interviews, BGC ) client will hire him. Hiring: Right after the Selecting process here comes the hiring which is mainly depends on negotiation and job offer. As soon as the client finds his/her best fit for the role they should convey the message by call or by sending the offer letter that they are going to hire him if not there is a chance of backing off the offer by the candidate. On boarding: As this is the last step of the recruitment cycle but it’s most important one of all above because there might be chances even after the client offer the best salary/pay rates along with the benefits candidates might not be interested to take the offer because of their personal issues/sudden plans etc.., so every step of the recruitment life cycle is crucial .

    2 US Tax Terms TaxTerms plays a key role in US job market / USIT Recruitment so in-order to have good understanding about US recruitment , every recruiter must have knowledge about the US Tax Terms. There are three (3) Tax Terms which are generally used in US Job market. W2 C2C 1099 W2 With the W2 tax type, you are a contracted consultant. You are oftenpaid an hourly rate everytwo weeks through a direct deposit. Taxes: Employer pays a portion of your taxes (Federal, Social Security, Medicare, State),which usually works out to be 8-9%. Additionally, your employer withholds a portion of your paycheck for you to help pay your taxes. For instance the person who is seeking a job opportunity with a valid work authorization (US Citizen/Green card/H1B /OPT /TN visa etc..,) is termed as consultant /Candidate. Like wise there are some staffing agencies who take these Consultants on their bench according to the interest of the consultants . if a H1B candidate is on one of the staffing company (“X” ) payroll (or made an agreement with an employer for a certain period ) then this H1B Candidate is called as W2 of this (“X” ) Staffing firm Only Green card /US citizen/ EAD / TN Visa can work on W2 Tax Term H1B are not allowed to work on W2 if they are in agreement with other employer but they are transferring their Visa then they are allowed t work on W2. W2 Candidates will be some basic benefits by their employer C2C : C2C is one of the commonly used Tax Terms in the US , which is the most preferable Tax by most of the consultants . C2C is an agreement betweentwo corporations. (Not individuals).Tax will be paid by the corporation on behalf of their consultants . H1B is the independent visa where they need someone to sponsor to stay in US so they will sign an agreement with their preferred staffing firm , then this staffing firm has rights to market the H1B Resume.

    6 Boolean Search Boolean Searchis a way to organise your search using a combination of keywords and the 3 main Boolean operators (AND, OR and NOT), to produce more accurate and more relevant results for your candidate searches on LinkedIn and beyond. 1.AND 2.OR 3.NOT 4.( ) 5.“ ” By applying these appropriately, along with the keywords you wish to consider, you can create a huge range of search operations. There is no limit to how often you can use any of these elements in a search, so you can create very specific search strings, which will save you a lot of time in filtering the results. The AND Operator Take these 2 groups. In the first group are all the people who have the keyword “recruitment” somewhere in their LinkedIn profile. In the second, are all the people who have the keyword “HR” somewhere in their LinkedIn profile. When we use the Boolean string: Recruitment AND HR We are asking the LinkedIn database to search for all of the people who include both the word “recruitment” and the word “HR” on their LinkedIn profile. The more criteria we add using the AND operator, the less people we will find with our search, because by using AND we are narrowing our search. However, the people we do find from our search will be more relevant, as they will possess both of those skills. The OR Operator In this example, one group of people have the keyword “Recruitment” in their LinkedIn profile, while the other have the keyword “Recruiting”. Both words mean exactly the same thing to you and I and anyone using either of the two terms to describe their job function or skillset on LinkedIn possessing exactly the same skillset, but to an electronic database they are totally separate terms. When we use the Boolean string: Recruitment OR Recruiting We are asking the database to search for candidates who include either of the two terms in their LinkedIn profile, or both terms simultaneously. Therefore, by using OR we are broadening/expanding our search to encompass profiles that have one result or the other or both. Using OR enables us to find hidden talent e.g. people who have expressed their skills and experience in a different way than you might normally search e.g. banking OR bank OR finance OR financial, because by using OR we are broadening our search. The NOT Operator Like in the first example we used, one group of people have the keyword “Recruitment” in their LinkedIn profile, while the other have the keyword “HR”. When we use the Boolean string: Recruitment NOT HR We are asking the database to search for candidates who have the word “Recruitment” in their profile, but to exclude any candidates that also have the word “HR” in their profile and those who just have the word “HR” in their profile. Using NOT enables us to remove false positives from our candidate searches, as by using NOT we are filtering our search and removing irrelevant results: Brackets () When using Boolean search, there is no way to determine how the computer will solve our equation. This means that in order to get the most relevant result for us, we have to use something called parentheses to tell the computer what to solve first. This is where using brackets comes into our Boolean search.
  • 10.
    7 Using brackets isessential for writing complex search strings, but it can be their application that causes the most confusion amongst recruiters. Essentially, a clause within brackets is given priority over other elements around it. For example, if I was given the following search: talent OR hr AND recruitment Do I mean to say I want to find someone who has either the keyword “talent” or the keyword “HR” on their profile, and has the word “recruitment” too? Or do I mean that they have to have “talent” or the combination of “HR” and “recruitment”? You see, the absence of brackets makes it impossible for the database to know what you mean. Watch how the meaning changes when you add brackets. In the following example, I have told the database that I need to find someone who has either “talent” or “HR” or both, and that they also need to have “recruitment”: (talent OR hr) AND recruitment But in the following example, I have told the database that I need to find someone who has “talent” or a combination of “recruitment” and “HR”: talent OR (hr AND recruitment) The most common place that brackets are applied by recruiters is in the use of OR strings. Basically, if you’ve written OR somewhere in your search, think about where the brackets will go because their placement will affect how the computer solves your Boolean search query, which will affect search results you receive back. Quotations “” When using Boolean search, if the keyword you’re searching for needs to be considered as a whole word e.g. Software Engineer , then it must be enclosed within quotation marks in your Boolean search string. If not, the database will consider the space between the two words to be an AND and will search the database for two terms – Software AND Engineer – and not what you want to search for which is the exact phrase “Software Engineer”. In other words, you must use quotations wherever you have two or more words as a phrase in your Boolean search string that you know for certain should be right beside one another like “Information Technology” or “Human Resources”, as quotations define a number of words as one exact term.

Helps to source qualified resumes As soon as the recruiter hunt for the candidate for the job , the first thing which attracts the job applicant is the job description which is shared by the recruiter, if the job description is not well written and with minimal information , there might be the chances that candidates would reject the job , but when the recruiter takes helps of AI tool called Textio.com , which will makes the job description free of grammatical errors , revise the description with alternate words and with proper sentence formation . Automate the Recruitment (screening, calling) As Recruiter are the busy persons , they spend a lot amount of time in finding the right candidates from job boards /social sites / ATS/ through emails and through referral as well , all these works are done alone by the recruiter, sometime recruiter tend to followup with the candidate on his interview schedule then that would be a mess , but when the recruiter takes help of Recruiting bot which follow up with the candidates who are shortlisted by sending emails / sending message which automatically makes recruiter job easy . Cost effective recruiting When comes to recruitment industry a normal startup company or a well grown company will have at least two(2) job portals , one (1) ATS , one (1) SMS software altogether costs huge dollars but when a recruiter buys a single AI based Recruitment software it is equal to all those all three softwares i.e. Job boards , ATS , SMS, so it is cost effective.

Introduce Referal Program How to build Referrals ? On the call: First responsibility of a recruiter is to make calls to the prospective candidate , a few seconds before a recruiter closes the call with the candidate , recruiter can ask for a referral for one of the job that which client is looking for. Generic script for asking Referrals Do you have any of your friends /colleagues looking for a job change ? if yes please share me the details that would be highly appreciated By creating a candidate free referral page online As per the survey 70%of the population on the earth are mostly attracted to the web based content ,so this is the one of he way to get engage with the job seekers directly by creating an free page. Have an Accurate Job Description If you’re hiring in IT. For the most part, Recruiters will get the job description from the clients end , which can make or break the company’s search for talent. Problems arise when the job ad is not well written for a technical description such as an Angular developer, for example. Unless you do some coding on the side and have previous industry experience, chances are, you won’t know much about Angular. If you take a look at this tweet, you’ll notice a candidate anonymously shaming a company for putting out an ad requiring 8 years of Swift experience – a technology that has existed for merely 3 years. Errors such as these will do more damage than a mean tweet. They make the companies hiring look incompetent, uninformed and downright careless about their hiring processes.

Basically, the A in the form means that the change of the person’s status has been approved, signifying that the applicant is allowed to stay in the US and will also be able to continue to work in the US. The I-797A always comes with an I- 94 attached, indicating the status to stay is approved. Form I-797B The form with a B attached at the of the 1-797 is issued to all applicants that either has never been to the US or those applicants whose status could not get approved. So what does it mean for you if your status could not get approved? In this case, you are seen as a person qualified for the job you applied for but you won’t be able to stay and work in the US because you are either currently not in the US or you have committed some kind of immigration violation. An immigration violation can indicate several different things. For instance, it can mean that your filing did not include sufficient evidence to validate you can be legally employed. That is just one example – immigration violations encompass a variety of acts committed by people who have not adhered to the proper immigration laws of the country. If this happens to you, you would have to leave the country, go back home, and apply for the Visa at an American consulate from your home country. At the American consulate, you will have to do an interview and submit additional information proving your case to live in the US. Whether you will be able to go back to the US or not depends on the new evidence you provide during your interview at the consulate. Form I-797C The I-797C form is only a copy of the already approved petition and is given to the applicant’s employer for their reference file. The biggest difference between the I-797’S is that forms A and B are given to applicants only and form C is given to the applicant’s employer. In case you don’t receive the original notice of approval, you will be provided with a copy of the original form. Form C, apart from being handed out as a reference file for employers, can also be issued to communicate receipt of payments, rejections of applications, transfer of files, fingerprint biometric, interview and re-scheduled appointments, or to reopen cases. What is I94? The Arrival and Departure Record is the I-94, in either paper or electronic format, issued by a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officer to foreign visitors entering the United States. What is SEVIS? SEVIS stands for Student and Exchange Visitor Information System. It is a nationwide, Internet- based system that the U.S. government uses to maintainaccurate and current information on non- immigrant students (F and M visa), exchange visitors (J visa), and their dependents (F-2, M-2, and J- 2).
