| | New To RECRUITING need advice :-) Hello party people,
I am new in recruiting field and need some advice.
The profiles which I send to my Coordinator for sending to client always are sent for reasons like duplicate profile, not matching etc.
Some profiles only are sent.
I am eager to close some positions and earn some FAST BUCKS  
Please advise me when to call candidates
bcoz some reply rudely too 
so best thing i do is SMS them regarding the opening and tell them that ive mailed all details on their email ID, and if de are interested de can get back to me.
As told I am very eager to close some position and earn some FAST BUCKS
please advise me :-)
my good friends .
CHEERS
RAVI

| | As far as my opinion goes,,,sms maybe convenient for candidate but not good for recruiter coz by the time you'll get in touch with him to discuss the profile or to ask whether you should send his CV for processing or not?, there is a high probability that some other consultant would have called him and again ur coordinator will not give you a clear pass....
So dont bother, the candidate being rude..you are the one giving him an opportunity not him..so, just talk in a little arrogant yet subtle voice and try to build rapport with him..it just takes hardly 1-2 minutes to check with him whther he's looking for a job or not and if he'll be interested for xyz profile with xyz company..doesnt take much time..give a confident and convincing pitch..and soon you'll get the hang of the trade....coming back to what i was saying, its important to build rapport with candidate because these days its noticed that on interview locations..other consultants are there..who unethically ask them to chuck ur consultancy's name and add theirs as a sourcing agent,,,thats why i said..its important to get pally with candidates...well well..thats all i can say....what else do u want to know??  |

How you doing dear.....Even i m working with a consultancy and faced the same sort of problem in the past....but there is one solution which helped me alot....be very aggresive in your approach and start early on monday as new resumes are there on monday and also handle the candidates with a dynamic approach...make them realise its them who needs the job change so they should comply....
things will improve for sure....
take care |

take care | hi 18shilp
how are u, thank u very much , im fine ,, just tell me when will I be able to close my first position,.,
as i think it will take a long time,
as first discuss with candidate then send to client, then client will shortlist, then call for interview, then if all goes ok he is selected and he will join, and then after he joins after 1 month i will get mah BUCKS ,
so thats a long time indeed. 
so tell me how u closed ur first position or in short how u keep track of whole records.
THANKS PALS FOR UR COOPERATION looking for more replies.
CHEERS

| | Hi Ravi,
Good Morning!!!
It is very important that you follow a systematic and clear approach to gain momentum at your new job viz: recruitment.
1. Firstly be very sure of the skillsets the client is looking at.
2. Jot down the specific competencies and screen only those resumes which meet the specifications.....here half the battle is won because the chances of rejection at the co-ordiantor level reduces. You may create your own comprehensive database of the candidates you have screened.
3. Also it is very important to understand that your performance depends upon the number of right candidates you get for your client; so keep your cool and be persuasive even with the rude ones. 4. If possible catch up with some good communication tips essential for your line of job as this will enhance your skill as a recruiter.
5. Last but not the least direct your energy towards those candidates who will sure shot get you the goodwill and the value you desire. |

| | help dear
i am himanshu from delhi.
SMS and calling on sundays is a strict NO in case you want to maintain a status of formality associated with your work .
since some of the candidates might just call you on sunday , accepting their calls is a GOOD thing to do.
and please there is othing like FAST BUCKS. work with pleasure and not pressure.
i can prove helpful in cllosing some positions with you.
regards

| | Hi All
I am only 1year old in the HR field and at my office I look after the recruitment part. I have faced some problem in convincing the candidates as our Company is based in Kolkata and qualified people from other cities are not interested here. I donno why. May b they dont want to shift from their native place.
Seniors plz tell me how can I convince them for a good job here in our office. Plz.
Thanks

| | hi Hi Ravi, Don’t do SMS to candidates. i can understand you, some people will behave rudely b'cos per day they will be getting N number of calls from consultancies, they may busy in there work also so, When ever u start the call, just ask candidate whether it is a appropriate time to speak to you or not. if candidate says ok (it means he is free now-so no candidate will behave rudely with you) u can talk to them. Regarding Duplicate: ask twice whether the candidate attended the interview previously for XYZ Company or not (ur client) 2) ask whether he has forwarded his profile to any other consultancy-for your s client and same position.
if u ask the above question u may not get duplicates. chances are little bit less to get the duplicates.
