During the pandemic and the Great Reshuffle, structured interviews have become increasingly important for hiring managers and candidates alike. That's why I envisioned an interview simulator that would help both parties prepare for the process. At the time, I was told that only the CIA had access to such a tool, but thanks to Chat GPT4, this is now becoming a reality faster than we ever thought. Check out the videos in the comments to see for yourself how this innovative technology is changing the game for job seekers and hiring managers. #interviewprep #jobsearch #structuredinterviews #ChatGPT4

While job seeking may not be "fun" - here are a few tips that might help: - If you are actively applying for jobs, check your spam folders regularly. You never know when a job reply from a company gets filtered there. - If you provide next day availability for an interview, check back to see if anything is confirmed for the next day so that you don't miss an interview. - If a company asks a brief yet required pre-screening question at the application stage, "see resume", ".", or "N/A" is not likely to get you selected for an interview. #jobseekers #jobs #interviews #jobtips #interviewtips #talentacquisition #recruitment #themoreyouknow #jobapplications

Deciding on your next career move or your next hire? A talent access strategy has a tremendously different outcome than a talent acquisition strategy. The supply / demand dynamic of the market continues to move towards the individual rather than to the company. Organizations that continue to shift their talent access tools and tactics to embrace the way buyers respond to making decisions, rather than making demands through job descriptions that include "Must Haves" and "Previous Experience" lists will outperform their competitors. In this session, Emily Phair and I discuss the strategy that engages top performers to a role that will develop them personally and professionally should they decide to join your organization. Who will I become? Why will I become that? Who will be with me on my journey with your firm over the next 5 years?

Great #lunchandlearn session with TALK today discussing bias in sourcing, interviewing, hiring, and how to work with managers regarding bias. This is a topic that can feel like its talked to death sometimes but is constantly evolving and best-practices are often being updated. I love being able to connect with TA Leaders and other professionals across the U.S. to discuss trends and best practices. One of the ways to test your potential bias is taking a quiz/survey to identify bias and help others identify theirs. One of the most suggested has been through Harvard University Implicit Association Test (link below). https://lnkd.in/gu8gx4Br

Nearly 330 applications for a fully remote healthcare position that was posted less than 12 hours ago. The current state of this market is crazy! But what’s even crazier is that out of those 330 applicants, only about 20 met the basic requirements. (1/2 of that met the preferred requirements). The remote market is completely saturated at the moment and so many people are applying to anything and everything that is listed as “remote”. Many of these applicants are not qualified but there is a ton of talent that is and it is causing some serious delays in the recruitment process as recruiters sort through applications and resumes. For most of these roles that receive high volume applicants, you have about 10 seconds to catch the eye of the recruiter. While we wish that we did, Recruiters don’t have the bandwidth to do the detective work on your resume when there are so many other applicants. If they can’t find any relevant experience within a few seconds, you are getting sent to the disposition pile and will most likely get the “thanks, but no thanks” email. If you truly wish to stand out in this market, make sure your resume is easy to read and targeted to that job so that it highlights your skills and experience applicable to that job! Yes, it takes some extra time to target your resume but it is crucial in this market! Rooting for all the job seekers out there looking for their next opportunity in this market because it certainly is the most competitive I have ever seen ☘️! #jobseekers #jobs #hiring #healthcare

📣 Healthcare leaders, take note: The recent Boeing crisis underscores a truth we know too well in MedTech - cutting corners on quality and safety isn't just poor practice; it can be catastrophic. ✈️🚫 The DOJ's criminal charges against Boeing remind us of the gravity of federal and regulatory compliance, especially where lives are on the line. In our field, where every device could be life-saving or life-threatening, diligence is non-negotiable. 🚑💔 The parallel is clear: just as an airliner must meet rigorous safety standards, so too must our medical devices. As a recruiter with two decades in this vital industry, I've seen the direct impact of matching MedTech companies with top-tier quality and safety professionals. It's about more than fulfilling a role - it's about protecting the wellbeing of millions.🛡️❤️ If you're a MedTech professional committed to excellence, or a company striving for the highest standards, let's talk. Let's ensure the only headlines we make are for innovations that change lives for the better. #MedTech #PatientSafety #QualityFirst FloodGate Medical

Two years ago this month marked a significant moment in my journey as I made the decision to transition out of the Navy. It was a time of immense change for me - my daughter had just been born the month prior, entered a new phase of life, and this choice meant I would be leaving the Navy in November of that year. Turning on that green banner on LinkedIn was a pivotal moment, signaling the start of a new chapter filled with uncertainty and challenges. I remember feeling the immense weight it brought with it and how terrified I was of the uncertainty. I dove headfirst into LinkedIn, engaging in outreach and actively working on building my professional presence. In just a month, I managed to grow my followers from 50 to 500, as well as having 12 job interviews. It was not easy and I would spend hours each day on here. The weight of that green banner, symbolizing my job search and career transition, was incredibly palpable. At times it felt like the walls were closing in, and the pressure was immense. The stress even manifested physically, leading to a full body dermatitis rash. It was a tough period, but it taught me valuable lessons that I carry with me to this day. I'll never forget those who answered my early attempts at networking with guidance and advice. I now strive to pay it forward by offering guidance and support to job seekers. I understand the desperation and uncertainty that comes with searching for a new opportunity. While my inbox may be inundated with messages daily, I encourage patience and polite follow-ups. I believe in matching energies, so approaching me with respect and professionalism will always yield the best results. When reaching out for assistance, remember that building a connection and rapport is key. Introduce yourself genuinely and engage in meaningful conversations before diving straight into business. I am here to offer advice and support, but ultimately, the effort to secure a job lies with the individual. Let's work together to navigate the job market and find the right fit for you. #jobseeker #jobsearchadvice #lessonslearned #recruiterinsight

Something jumped out at me as I was looking through LinkedIn’s 2024 Future of Recruiting report (https://loom.ly/-BTKQ0g) Quality of hire is the number 1 topic shaping the future of recruiting. Employers are becoming increasingly vigilant about making sure every hire is the right one. This is something that I’ve noticed anecdotally, but interesting to see it reflected in the numbers. Of course, there is no way to guarantee that every hire is the right one. However, there is a lot you can do to give yourself the best chance of success. As we described in the Hunton Executive article, The Serious Business of Hiring Leaders (https://loom.ly/YJq_7qY), this includes: ✓ Refine your hiring strategy and process ✓ Make sure your employer brand is up to scratch ✓ Take time to evaluate Please get in touch if you’d like any help. #executivesearch #jobsearch #leadership #executivecareer
