24. Steps in Recruiting Life Cycle
• Client
• Account Manager
• Assignment of Requirement to recruiter
• Requirement Understanding
• Formulating Search String (Keywords, Boolean Search)
• Calling up candidates
• Getting updated resume
• Checking the Quality of Resume and Matching it to the Requirement

• Account Manager consults the candidate for further clarifications, if required.

• Recruiter arranges the interview and confirms it with the client.

25. Requirement Understanding
• To understand the requirement is the key to find the right talent for the
right job at the right time.
• When looking at the requirement, the recruiter should look for following
skills and attributes.
Location.
Duration
Rate
Primary and Secondary Skills
Start Date and End Date of Assignment
Job Description
Roles and Responsibilities
Client
26. Searching Resume
• When Searching for Resume, the recruiter must use either of
the following methods to locate a resume.
Keyword Search – In this method, the recruiter looks for a
particular resume through Job Title, Position Name or
Specific Skill or Function in a Job Board (Monster, Dice,
Career Builder). This method is useful particularly for any
functional position and low level jobs (Technician, Business
Analyst and Project Managers etc.)
Boolean Search
27. Boolean Search
• Boolean searches allow you to combine words and phrases using the
words AND, OR AND NOT (otherwise known as Boolean operators) to
limit, widen, or define your search. Most Internet search engines and Web
directories default to these Boolean search parameters anyway, but a
good Web searcher should know how to use basic Boolean operators.
• Examples
Using AND Operator, search results are narrowed, as explained below
(Portland) AND (Oregon)
Using OR Operator, search results are broadened, as explained below
(Dog) OR (Wolf).
Using NOT Operator, search results are narrowed, as explained below
(Manager) NOT (Program)
28. Some more Boolean Search
• (TECHNICIAN ) AND (RF ) AND (TES OR TESTING OR
SCRIPTING) Within 75 miles of 92101.
• (MANAGER ) AND (ANALYSIS OR ANALYST OR ANALYTICS )
AND(DATA ) Within 75 miles of 92101 , BUT NOT = (PROJECT
OR PROGRAM ).
• (TECHNICIAN) AND ("TIER 1" OR "TIER I") AND ("MS OFFICE
SUITE" OR MS-OUTLOOK) WITHIN 75 MILES OF 92101.
• (RF ) AND (DESIGN OR FABRICATE ) AND(MOBILE OR WIRELESS
) Within 75 miles of 92101
29. Boolean Search on Google to find the Resume
• Boolean Search can be applied on Google to find the resumes
too. As we know that people make their personal profiles and
also post resumes on Internet in large numbers, it is always a
good idea to check Google for recruiting purposes too.
• The Syntax for finding a resume on Google is
(intitle: Resume OR inURL: Resume OR intitle: CV or inURL: CV) AND (“
Manager” OR “Supervisor”) AND (Test OR Testing OR Test Case OR Test
Plans) –jobs –samples –”sample resume” –”Resume writers” (CA OR
California)
(intitle: Resume OR inURL: Resume OR intitle: CV or inURL: CV) AND (“
Mobile” OR “Wireless” AND Chips OR “Semiconductors”) AND (Test OR
Testing OR Test Case OR Test Plans) –jobs –samples –”sample resume”
–”Resume writers” (CA OR California)
30. Tax Terms
• There are three tax terms which are prescribed in US Recruitment.
W2
1099
C2C (Corp to Corp).
W2 – When a person is paid in form of W2, the employer
automatically withholds a part of his pay and pays all the necessary
taxes on his own as per the required norms of Federal Government.
These Taxes include Federal Income Tax, State Income Tax, Social
Security and Medicare Tax. It is further classified in two parts
W2 Salaried
W2 Hourly
31. Tax Terms
W2 Salaried – In this the employer pays the candidate on a daily rate
basis. This means that the consultant will be billed on 800 hours
instead of 880 hours on a monthly basis. The candidate is normally
paid benefits (Medical Insurance, Paid Time Off, National Holidays and
401K Contribution). The candidate is not qualified for overtime in this
type of payroll.
W2 Hourly – In this, the employer pays the on an hourly basis. This
means that the candidate will be billed for full 880 hours (8 hours a
day * 5 days a week * 22 days a month). There are no benefits or
minimal benefits provided with this type of payroll. The candidate is
eligible for overtime.
32. Tax Terms
1099 – When a person is paid in 1099 payrolls, all money earned by
the candidate is paid on an untaxed basis. It is then the responsibility
of the candidate to file and pay the appropriate taxes.
C2C or Corp to Corp – In this a sub vendor to your staffing company
does a 1099 type of contract and then pays to his consultant on W2
Payrolls.
To do a 1099 or C2C contract, a subvendor or the self contractor needs
to have following insurances.
General Liability – Amount of $1 million (Mandatory, Always ask
the candidate or vendor when dealing a 1099 or C2C case).
Errors and Omissions
Workermen’s Compensation
33. Per Diem
• Per Diem is basically an allowance given to candidate in case the candidate
is relocating from his home location to the client site to work for an
assignment. For Per Diem to be applicable, following conditions must be
fulfilled.
The candidate should own a house / should be renting a house at his
home location. (Proof of Ownership / Rent Agreement will be asked at
the time of paper work.)
Distance between the location should be 50 miles or more.
He should have enough expenses to maintain the two houses.
Per Diem will be provided to the candidate for the first year of the
contract only. If the contract extends for more than 12 months, Per
diem will be stopped after completion of 12th month.
34. Screening the Candidate Over the Phone
• Phone Screening the Candidate is the most critical step in identifying and
hiring the candidate for the a given requirement. While hiring the
candidate the recruiter generally follows following steps.
Greets the Candidate on opening of the call.
Introduces himself and his staffing company.
Seeks the permission from candidate to speak about the position.
Gives the Details about the position (Title, Location, Client, Duration
and nature of job ) and discusses the candidate’s experience to qualify
the resume for the assigned requirement.
Negotiate for Pay Rate / Salary Range and Summarizes the details for
the call to confirm the candidate’s interest
Closes the Call and Sends him a RTR (Right to Represent) mail to
reserve the candidate for the assigned position.
35. Closing the Candidate for a particular
Requirement
• After sourcing and screening the candidate, the recruiter can
go ahead and get the candidate’s resume submitted to the
client.
• If the resume is short-listed depending on the client’s
feedback, and client forwards an interview request, the
recruiter gets in touch with the candidate, discusses the
interview schedule with him.
• If the candidate is appointed by the client, it then adds up to a
closure (Purchase Order or PO) in the recruiter’s name.
• Once the candidate officially starts his assignment, it is
regarded as a placement in recruiter’s name and the recruiter
is awarded incentive accordingly.
36. Red Flags While Screening the Candidate
• While Screening the Candidate, it is mandatory that certain check points
are ruled out in order to confirm that candidate in all probability is a
willing candidate and will join the job, provided client offers it following
the interview.
Commute
Pay Rate
Willingness to Join
Willing to Perform a Background Check and Credit Check as per the
client’s requirement
An Ex – Employee of the same client
Any Pending Interviews or Back-up Offers
Qualification and Experience are neither under or over qualified
37. Job Boards used in US Recruitments
