They have to screen all the resumes and candidates. (And they are all 22 or 23 years old, so they really know what they are doing.&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0&#8220;We have six people (or more) involved in the interviewing process and it&#8217;s going to take at least three or four weeks to get someone hired.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0&#8220;We know we don&#8217;t pay very well, but surely you can come up with good candidates.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0You tell me you need candidates very badly and\u00a0 then, after we organize a group of candidates, you don&#8217;t return our calls.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Our calls are not returned.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0The hiring authority turns the interviewing over to someone\u00a0 who, when the candidates show up, tells the candidate that they don&#8217;t really have any idea of what the company is looking for&#8230;and don&#8217;t know why they are even in the interview.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Every one of our candidates is told they are absolutely wonderful and perfect for the job and then they (or we) never hear from anybody.<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We know exactly what we are doing&#8230;we have done this three or four times before.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We can tell a great candidate by looking at a resume. We know what&#8217;s out there. We just can&#8217;t find what we need&#8230;send us some resumes.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We&#8217;ll get back to you in a week or so.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We&#8217;ll tell you how to manage the intervewing process. (Insead of asking us, &#8220;how should we approach this?&#8221;)<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We know exactly what we are doing when it comes to hiring.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Tell our candidates that you really don&#8217;t like paying a fee.<\/li>\n<li>Tell our candidates that since you have to pay a fee, you can&#8217;t pay them as much of a salary.<\/li>\n<li>Not forewarning us about the horrible Glass Door\u00a0 reviews about your company.<\/li>\n<li>Telling us, &#8220;I&#8217;ve never made a mistake in hiring!&#8221; (either you have never hired anyone or you are a liar)<\/li>\n<li>Not relying on\u00a0 our experience&#8230;been here since 1952&#8230;our recruiters average 16 years of experiece. We each (more than 20 of us) interview more people in two weks than most hiring managers interview in a year.<\/li>\n<li>You get mad at me and our candidate when you took 3 to 4 weeks for your &#8220;interviewing process&#8221; to find out that someone else interviewed and hired the candidate in four days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The best way to keep all of this from happening is to simply call us, tell us what you need and then will help you design an approach that&#8217;s going to make you (and are candidates) successful.
