don't forget that after the software does its job, you have to do yours. [b]And [/b]here is a great resource on how to write a resume that will turn recruiter's heads... https://www.nairaland.com/1161303/how-write-resume As we all know Hr is not a child's play cus there are a lot of things companies look for during the hiring process: 1. a. great fit- both. in intellectuals and academia 2. someone who fits the Company Culture 3. Someone who will drive profits no matter which department you are in. Anyway, i have found a new love and will be leaving this scene soon to garner all learned experienced into my new Hr/Recruiting venture. |

hienyimba: Good day to the employers in the house if any. Recruiting can be tough, it can be painful, it can be heart rendering so i would love you all to share your stories - or job-seekers who were funny,annoying,who scaled through,who were disqualified, what they did to deserve it ,anything.happy writing.. I wonder what you were thinking when you applied for the HR position. Don't tell me you expect maybe a couple of hundred CV's to go through after advertising vacant positions despite the high unemployment rate. Some medical doctors attend to almost 700 patients daily 8am-8pm. Some rig workers will tell you how stressful rig work can be. I am sure someone out there is willing to go through 100000 CV if offered same job you don't seem to be happy with. This HR people and their palaver!!! 1 Like |

I started out as HR consultant on April 15,1990 and will be pleased to share some of my experiences here: 1. 80% of applications received are not related to or do not meet the set criteria of the job adverts. 2. The Labour Law requests that we advertise in a well spread National daily ( I hope the law is reviewed to include internet) 3. Only 20% meets the requirements of the recruitment exercise. 4. What HR Consultants/Recruiters look for are so simple: a) Read the advert well and respond to it as if you are doing a comprehension test. What most [b]unsuccessful [/b]applicants do is to just send a prepared CV and forward to the recruiter as if they are just sowing seed in an infertile field. When a candidate forward the same documents he has forwarded to 50 other companies to me ....i am naturally going to ignore the CV cos my company was in copy!!! You cant advertise for a position by copying the advertiser what you sent to another company. Whether you are using computer aided shortlisting or manual, the key advert phrases are our watchword. So spend 30 minutes on each advert you are responding to, it gives you an edge. b) When we call you for interview, we definitely are looking for one thing: Person fit which means whether your personality fits with the documents submitted and whether the competencies displayed in your documentation is truly a reflection of your personality, training, comportment and exposure. Nothing delights a recruiter more than a candidate that has a well prepared CV (error and "gbagaun" free), has done his homework/research with regards to the firm recruiting and follows on the interview conversation with utmost concentration. Pls dont start to pray during the interview........it is way too late a time to pray!!!. 30% of people i ve interviewed in 21 years cannot separate personal religious beliefs from work!!!. The Person fit is a critical component of the job, and the most important part of this is adaptability, eagerness to learn, willingness to be available to do the job, recruiting is not much about the ability but availability and adaptability. 60% of candidates interviewed ask for salaries higher than budgeted amounts. Your emphasis at interviews should not be what you can get from the company but what you can help the company achieve. The rewards will follow. You need to first of all have a house before you can have a bed!! Duty calls hope to find a time to get back to complete this thread someday soon . Bye Bola Onasanya PhD www.gdanigeria.com 2 Likes |
