How To Get The Most Out Of Recruitment Agencies, Oussama MansourThe HR Observer
There certainly seems to have been a growing sense of informal negativity towards recruitment consultants in the region. A recruitment agency should help speed up the recruitment process and take a significant workload of your plate. The better consultants should be well connected and be able to provide you access to strong candidates that would be otherwise impossible to gain access to. Due to the significant sums of money involved in the recruitment business, this have caused a drastic shift in how some recruitment companies in the middle east approach their clients. Some have abandoned the mature, well informed true consultative approach and instead replaced it with a high volume, sales orientated approach. Others have become CV passers and nothing more. Finding and getting the best out of a recruitment agency, however, requires planning, preparation and determination.

Challenges recruiters face and why candidates are blamedSourcingAdda
The recruitment industry always has a talk which blames the candidates for various reasons.
Let’s see few reasons why Recruiters blame candidates?
• Candidates don't turn up for interviews as promised
• Candidates accept multiple offers and reject our offer at the last moment.
• Candidates don't give more details about their job.
• Candidates usually lie to recruiter and don’t give proper details
• Candidates say YES to other conditions and finally decline the offer for same reason
Though being a recruiter, we can’t blame candidates completely for the above reasons as I feel most of the recruiters are not doing their job in detail and in the way they need to considering deadlines.

Disrupting the Decline - Changing the Conversation Through TransparencyKimberlea Kozachenko
Candidates have been declined in many different ways, at many different stages in the recruitment cycle. An impersonal email, a rushed, uncomfortable phone call or voicemail, maybe a letter in the mail…or worse, no feedback at all. I want to re-imagine the decline. Create happiness for candidates and transform the negative tone of declines into conversations that add value to each candidate’s professional and personal equity.

Better Together: How Employer Brand Professionals Can Turn Recruiters into Ad...Aggregage
While employer branding can play a huge role throughout your company, its first mandate is to help attract talent. You could do that all on your lonesome, or you could get recruiters to become your employer brand foot soldiers. But all too often, recruiters push back on employer branding ideas. Working without recruitment support is like building your brand with one hand tied behind your back, so how can you get them to not only see the value of employer branding, but turn them into supporters and even employer brand champions? In this webinar, you'll learn a better strategy for working with recruiters, as well as a number of projects that can turn a tense relationship into something that benefits you all.

10 ways to make a recruiter smile
1. Top 10 Ways to
Make a Recruiter Smile
Tri-cities Unemployment Group
May 9, 2011
Elyse Williamson
Staffing Consultant for Frank’s Employment
2. Staffing terminology
Sourcer – finds names, credentials
Recruiter – develops professional
relationship with individual
Sales – develops relationship with company;
takes the job order for the active search
Staffing Consultant – sourcing + recruiting
+ sales
Headhunter – may charge you $
Temporary or contract; temp-to-hire, direct
hire; full time or part time
3. Staffing professionals all dance
along the bottom line.
This affects:
How we network with you, short term and
long term;
How we assess your credentials and
qualifications;
Whether and how we respond to your interest
in a specific opening;
How we are involved in each step of the
placement process.
4. Staffing professionals work with
applicants, but ultimately for our
client companies.
Hiring company sets criteria for each
search. Staffing professional works within
those criteria.
Recruiters want to be able to say “yes” to
your interest in a specific opening. “Yes”
is what makes money.
You are the only person working full-time
to find you new employment.
5. Most employers hiring right now
have very specific criteria for
qualifying candidates.
Improving local economy and job market.
Businesses still really under pressure.
• Not quite ready to hire in terms of confidence
about their bottom line, but they need to hire
in terms of their product/service demand.
Employers expect that new employee will be
productive immediately, with shortest
possible learning curve.
Hiring focuses on present and immediate
need, only secondarily on future need.
6. The employer’s staffing need
drives the search for an agency
professional. This has implications
for you.
Your résumé must convincingly show that
your expertise is a bulls-eye match.
• The phrase “it’s not on my résumé but” must
vanish from your vocabulary for now.
Every interaction you have with an agency
staffing professional is an interview –
every email, phone call, skype exchange,
in-person chat.
7. The job market is still filled with
people who are unemployed, but
also increasingly with employed
people who have postponed a
career move.
Customize your résumé, cover letter, and
interview preparation for those positions
that strongly match your career goal.
That’s what your competition will do!
Pay attention to the content of the ad,
especially the instructions for applying.
8. #1: Submit an error-free résumé.
=(
Easily 90% of the
résumés we
receive have more
than one error:
• Typographical,
grammatical,
punctuation
• Formatting
• Content
=)
An error-free
résumé shows that
you care about
the quality of
your work.
It makes it
easier for the
recruiter to
visualize you as
representing
him/her well to
the client.
9. #2: Target and customize your
résumé and cover letter.
=(
90% of the résumés we
receive are too
generic.
Most résumés present
only tasks, not
successes or
accomplishments.
Recruiters are using
components of the ad
to prescreen – 99%
ignore this!
=)
Your résumé and
supporting documents
must persuasively
“sell” you for this
kind of position.
• Details
• Quantification
• Accomplishments
• Successes
10. #3: Resist the temptation to reveal
personal information.
=(
Marital status
Age
Religious convictions
Political activity
Financial burdens
EEOC issues must
be fully
documented,
taking time away
from dancing on
the bottom line!
=)
Focus on the
aspects of your
personality and
interests that
are relevant to
the workplace.
The staffing
consultant is
friendly, but is
not your buddy.
We are HR.
11. #4: Make the contacts yourself,
just as you would in the workplace.
=(
Not your spouse
or partner
Not your parent
or child
This looks lazy,
ill-prepared,
lacking in
initiative
=)
You are
interviewing with
every contact!
12. #5: Be truthful about your work
priorities.
Truthfulness gives the recruiter
confidence that you will represent him/her
well with the client.
• Money
• Benefits
• Commute
• Portfolio of responsibilities
• Long-term priority of full time or part time
• When priorities change
13. #6: Treat your interview with
recruiter as “remote” meeting with
company.
Dress as you would for interview at the
company.
Be on time, no more than 10 minutes early.
Be prepared: familiar with job description
+ résumé.
Bring supporting materials, such as
portfolio.
Answer questions directly.
Send thank you by email next business day.
14. #7: Respond to rejection as
information.
=(
Argument
• Especially when
a requirement
is stated in
the ad
Insult
Threat
Applying over and
over for the same
job
=)
Respond as you
would in the
workplace:
proactively, not
defensively.
Every interaction
is an interview,
including how you
respond to “no.”
15. #8: Focus your public brand for
the job search.
=(
67% of employers use
or plan to use social
media searches as
hiring tool
Recommendations: 52%
Comments: 36%
Affiliations: 32%
Pictures/videos: 23%
Friends’ comments:
21%
=)
Double-check your
privacy settings
Multiple searches
(google, bing, yahoo)
Use this to your
advantage
• LinkedIn
• Website
• Blog
16. #9: Represent the recruiter well in
your contact with the client.
=)
You represent the recruiter and the agency
when you have contact with their client.
When you are well-prepared, it shows that
the recruiter is doing her/his job in
saving the company’s time.
Follow recruiter’s lead about contact with
the company after interview.
• If you contact the client directly,
without the recruiter’s consent, you
make it seem that they’re not doing
their job.
17. #10: Great referrals build bridges
for the long term.
=)
Refer people whose work you respect.
Post positive feedback on yelp and other
sites when you meet a great recruiter.
If you work with a great recruiter, send
business their way once you’re employed.
Initiate a long term rapport via LinkedIn
or other professional networks.
18. Remember: recruiters are people,
not computers.
We usually work on 10-20+ active searches
at a time.
We work 2000+ hours per year and most of
us have 5000+ active applicants.
Every contact must be documented.
We have bad days too.
We are under pressure from demanding
clients and demanding candidates.
We want to say “yes,” not “no.”
Using four or five words, how would you describe your experience with recruiters?
Every minute counts for us. Every contact is doubled in length because it must be documented.
We generally do not have time for introductory interviews, lengthy calls, or staffing games such as “Do you remember me?”
Recruiters increasingly use ads and other communications to “test” for suitability ~ catch typos (administrative); follow directions (skilled manufacturing); respond to lead (customer service, sales).
Send what is asked; not a lot of extra stuff. Recruiters must examine comparable information for each/every applicant.
Spell check doesn’t catch every error.
Not just error free résumé – also supporting documents, from cover letter to reference contacts to thank you not.
In 13 years, not once has an employer said, “Just send me somebody who really needs to work.” Not once has an employer said, “Send me somebody who will take anything.”
Recruiters commonly interview only 5-10 of the top qualified individuals; present only 1-3!
If you notice an advertised opening that seems a perfect fit, tell the recruiter about your interest (ie, not “Why didn’t you call me about this?”).
“I’m a 45-yr old single mother of three teenagers. I have no savings. I really need to work.”
Politically charged or religiously polarizing emails sent to your whole address book.
We cannot legally or ethically take into consideration the EEOC protected categories. However, once you introduce them, we must document how we handle the issues.
“My husband would be perfect for this Outside Sales position! He doesn’t have time to contact you himself. So here is his résumé. Please call him on his cell phone to arrange an interview.”
If you need to change plans for ANY reason, call in advance! Don’t burn bridges!
“I assure you that my résumé is typo-free. You need to upgrade your software so that you can read it properly.”
“How stupid is that company to think that a college degree is more valuable than my years of experience?”
We have stopped giving specific reasons for rejection, at least at the résumé-review stage. Too time-consuming to document; too many defensive threats in response (which also must then be documented).
From SHL Previsor 2011 Global Assessment Trends.
Increasingly legal issues related to internet privacy, but companies still do this and not always fairly.
Be on time. Be appropriately attired. Be respectful. Follow up courteously.
Saving the company’s time ~ part of the reason they contact an agency is so that they don’t have to deal with the time-consuming aspects of a search.
If you want a human to review your résumé, then give them time for that review! It takes longer than clicking “Send” and dialing the phone number!
