Account Manager
Crafting a compelling job description is a crucial first step in the recruiting
process, whether you use a recruiting agency, source candidates
yourself, or post job ads.
by Amit Thokal
Creating an Impressive Job
Description
Crafting a compelling job description, even if it seems simple, can
significantly impact your recruiting success and the quality of candidates
you attract. You can explore more sample job descriptions to inspire your
own.
Discover Relevant Candidates
1. Recruiters can find active job seekers using job sites like Indeed,
LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter and Glassdoor. They would need recruiting
tools to find passive job seekers.
2. EasySource's Candidate Discovery Module can instantly surface
relevant Account Managers from active, passive, and hidden talent
pools based on your job description or simple prompts.
3. With over 1,030,559 job applicants in the US, the Account
Manager talent pool is remarkably strong. However, there are only
a few active candidates. Recruiters must use passive and latent
talents to find relevant candidates who are likely to join the
organization.
Screen Candidates
• To avoid missing qualified candidates, EasySource's Candidate
Screening Module uses persona-based screening to map the
ideal candidate profile and find Account Managers with relevant
skills, profiles, and work experience. This screening also ranks
candidates based on relevancy to help recruiters prioritize
outreach.
• Most candidate screening tools rely on keywords in profiles or
resumes, which can lead to relevant candidates being eliminated
or irrelevant ones being filtered in. This approach may miss
qualified candidates whose profiles don't have the right keywords.
Assess candidates
Skill assessments can be used to ensure only qualified candidates get
in and that the health of the talent pipeline is robust. They can also
help in making faster hiring decisions without bias.
EasyAssess offers pre-built and customized adaptive skill
assessments that validate Account Managers' technical and
workplace skills as well as personality traits. These pre-employment
tests create a level playing field so that recruiters can build winning
teams with qualified candidates from diverse backgrounds.
Interview Candidates
Automated video interviews can be a great way to go beyond the
resume and learn more about candidates. EasyInterview gives recruiters
the edge to hire diverse and exceptional talent from across the globe.
Hiring managers can also be involved to make faster hiring decisions.
Sample Interview Questions
1. Pretend I'm a prospect. Describe our product or service to me.
2. Tell me about your experience with working with targets. What were they? Did you meet them?
How did you perform compared to your team members?
3. Tell me about a time you had to get good at a skill. What did you do to achieve that goal?
4. Tell me about a time you faced a challenge. How did you deal with it, and what motivated you to
keep going?
5. What's the last thing you learned that you thought was really interesting?
Engage candidates
Reaching out to qualified Account Managers and engaging them
throughout the hiring process requires recruiters to engage with them 1-
on-1. EasySource's Candidate Engagement Module ensures candidates
are engaged with highly personalized strategies and messaging across
multiple platforms to compel them to join your organization.
Conduct reference checks
Once you have shortlisted the candidates, verify their work history and
performance in previous roles. This step is essential in ensuring the
authenticity of their claims and understanding their strengths and areas
for development.
Also, enquire about the candidate's ability to work effectively within a
team and adapt to the company culture as this role required collaboration
across multiple teams.
Selection and Onboarding
An offer letter is important to protect both the employer and the employee.
Share a comprehensive offer letter with details like title, duties, salary,
benefits, start date, and probationary period. In the onboarding program,
introduce the Account Managers to the organization's culture, values,
mission, product knowledge, and buyer personas.
