Some Freelancing i got indulged in ... !!

Some one is worried about his career.... need expert advice.



“Hi Sunny, I dont know how did it reach me but i am glad to express my thoughts on the same. See i am an HR consultant and deal with such situation every day where i am selling jobs and selling candidates at the same time.Regarding your friend you have given a personal touch to his case where every HR manager who reads his case will feel to extend his/her help to this candidate. Well its fair enough on your friends part to look beyond horizon and see for himself where he stand apart from the rest of the peers.See boss, any individual or rather an employee in any organization stay in the position assigned to him because of his service and offerings to the organization and at the end of the day ( in pure business terms) how much revenue is he worth to the organization. Education does matter for placing any person in the organization but yes there is always the experience and application that needs to be highlighted at the time of the interview. Nobody in the world can stop your friend him from getting a better job just that he needs to strive for it, which in case of educated and qualified person may be easy as they come with a tag ... Every employee is expected to be honest and to the point at the time of the interview. So its indeed not wrong for your friend to tell the HR reasons for his education gap. Experience matters and definitely the attitude to strive !! He should just go ahead and achieve the sky.. An eg:In my current org i hv a colleague who is also 12th class pass and taking his education through distance learning. I am an MBA HR and working in the same position as he does.To be honest he is the best performer in the center and he stands tall on his achievement. See for your self.. Regards, Sonali”

I was asked on my earlier post on What is the piece of advice .... I wrote this.. Well if you ask me what can be done to curb this then actually or almost nothing can be done. Basically when the candidates simply fail to answer your calls or reply to your emails, disconnects the call seeing your number and the worst simply disconnect the mobile connection if he leaves that particular city, their could be no recourse to this. But yes the companies are taking a note of such issues and makes sure every candidates approaching them , they do check in their history if they have encountered he/she previously and if the candidate was genuine earlier. Candidates shopping for jobs was definitely in for a long time, some candidates uprightly say they want to know their worth in the market and hence they shop !! Very little can be understood from such candidates if they are actually serious for the job. Most of the times they go back with the offer to their own employers to get a counter offer fro...

The Truth Hurts. It’s tough being Number 14, out of let’s say 15. Yes that’s right - not No. 1, not No.5, not even No. 10. But sometimes you are. When a candidate hears about an opportunity with your group, they say "Who?" and the challenge begins from there. One of the toughest conversations I have with our Clients is the conversation where I tell them they’re not going to see candidates from Crispin or P&G. They sometimes don’t have the brand equity as an employer, sometimes in such a remote location that great Talent isn’t likely to find a home there, or sometimes the work simply isn’t good enough to attract someone from the top company in the field. It hurts to hear, but often the truth in fact, hurts. Setting realistic expectations is a big part of being a successful Recruiter. We have intimate knowledge of the marketplace and who’s considered ‘hot’ and who’s ‘not.’ We know what’s making candidates tick these days, what the going rates are for salaries, and j...

Having All the Information Needed to Start a Search… In any given search, a recruiter’s main contact is usually the human resources representative. While HR knows what they have been told to look for, what sometimes they don’t realize is words or information gets lost in translation. The best way to ensure you are going to get a quick turnaround for the open position to be filled is to give the 3rd party recruiter all the ammunition they need. Since starting up the recruiting for the client side – marketing and advertising positions, I have learned how different it is then traditional recruiting for the ad agency side. There is so much more detail that needs to go into a search. A marketing manager may mean one thing to one person and another to another person. So with that being said, it’s important to get all the information the recruiter can possibly obtain. One of my searches I have been working on is a brand manager. I love the HR contact. He is full of good information and...
