Interviewing - what a unique and challenging process we put ourselves through to determine the best for our careers based on three to four interviews and some reference checks. Come to think of it, the entire process is built around five to ten hours of actually visiting with a company that, if you are the lucky one, will ask you to make a life-altering decision based on what little bit you actually know about each other.
That is why it is very helpful to have career professionals (CSA Recruiters) to help educate both parties involved in the process. For instance: As professional recruiters, we can honestly paint a clear picture of a company’s overall structure and environment for candidates before they walk in the door. The same principle works in reverse when we can provide a hiring manager genuine insight into a candidate based on our meeting with them beforehand, asking questions and taking detailed notes.
I tell hiring managers and candidates alike: this is not rocket science. We are simply finding the best fit based on multiple variables – skill set, work ethic, and personalities – that, when they mirror each other, work much better for everyone.
