When is it the right time to leave your job? What considerations do you take into account before making the decision to resign?
Here’s the checklist I follow:
1. You’re not receiving fair compensation.
2. You’re struggling to maintain a healthy work-life balance due to job demands.
3. Past experiences with the company have affected your capacity to start anew.
AI Tools for Recruitment
Hello, fellow recruiters! I’m reaching out for your insights. With AI becoming increasingly prevalent, it’s essential for us to explore how we can leverage it to streamline our processes.
If you know of any automation tools that can assist with sending InMails from LinkedIn Corporate (preferably ones that also provide analytics), please share!
Additionally, if you have any other recruitment tools to recommend, I’d love to compile a list of fresh ideas. Let’s get the conversation going!
Can AI help identify the top candidate from your CV database? Here’s a situation to consider:
As a recruiter, I spend much of my day comparing multiple documents. When I receive a job description, my task is to locate the most suitable resume from my collection stored in OneDrive.
So, my question is:
Can I leverage ChatGPT or Copilot to help me find the most relevant resumes for a new position I need to fill?
Recruitment of ESL Teachers in China
Hello everyone,
I’m curious about the standard practices in China for recruiting ESL teachers at schools and universities.
Is it typical to encounter a placement fee or a salary reduction during this process? If so, how much can one expect it to be?
I’ve come across information suggesting a fee of around $250 USD. Is that accurate?
Subject: Inquiry About Commission on New Business
I’m interested in understanding the commission structure regarding new business. If I successfully bring in a new client and another team member takes on the associated role, am I still eligible to receive commission? If so, how long does that last? Is it tied to the duration that the company continues to fill positions? As a 360 recruitment consultant, I appreciate any clarification on this! Thank you.
Recruiter Interview Insights
A friend of mine recently interviewed for a talent acquisition position at an IT firm and shared some surprising details with me. The interviewer asked him to explain properties of OOP concepts and the SOLID principles, along with some tricky questions about Java and cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. The interviewer emphasized that a recruiter should have this technical knowledge to effectively screen candidates in the initial phone interviews.
For those who have experience interviewing recruiters, do you believe it’s reasonable to expect them to have such an in-depth understanding of IT concepts?
New Business Commission Structure
I collaborate with four sourcing consultants and one 360 recruitment consultant. The 360 consultant is newly onboarded and has begun engaging in business development activities. She has expressed that when she acquires new business but is unable to fill those positions herself, the responsibility then shifts to the sourcing consultant. She believes that in such cases, a commission split of 30% for her and 70% for the sourcing consultant is appropriate. Furthermore, she feels this arrangement should apply to any new business she brings in for a period of 12 months on all placements she cannot personally fulfill. Is this an appropriate approach?
What does it mean when a job ad is reuploaded on Jobstreet?
Hello! I’m looking for some insights from recruiters regarding this.
I noticed that a job posting on Jobstreet was reuploaded just a few hours after my interview. Does this indicate that I wasn’t shortlisted? Or is it an automatic process by Jobstreet?
I’d really appreciate your thoughts, as I can’t help but overthink the situation. I’m very eager about this opportunity and becoming part of the organization. Thank you!
Is there any software available that can assist me in managing the resumes we receive via email?
To give you some background, I recently began working at a well-established school in India where we receive between 50 to 80 applications daily. All these resumes are directed to a single email account, and our current process involves printing each one out, reviewing for highlights and suitability, making notes, photocopying them, and then forwarding them to upper management for approval to schedule interviews.
I’m looking for a software solution that can:
A) Enable mass uploading of resumes to create a centralized candidate database.
B) Utilize intelligent search features to find specific keywords across all uploaded resumes, such as “degree,” “location,” and “years of experience.”
C) Help manage the tracking and status of applications, including follow-ups and notes about each candidate.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
