Is the "flyer" so terrible as he is painted?

It seems that everyone understands that the important thing is not the number of jobs a candidate has and the duration of work in one place, but the reasons for the transitions. You can figure out the reasons only by talking to the person in person. And all the same, analyzing job vacancies or looking for the ideal candidate in the best resume database, many recruiters reach out to immediately reject those who often changed jobs. We tell why this is wrong. Those who change jobs too often are called “flyers” by recruiters and try to avoid them. It is believed that inviting them to work is risky - they are either non-caring and conflicting, or unreliable and bad workers. It is clear, after all - good employees change jobs infrequently. Moreover, there is no consensus on the normal, “correct” duration of work in one place. Someone thinks that it’s two or three years, someone - that it’s three to five years. Although far from any position it is so important that a person remains in th

How to name a resume and typical title errors

Error: no specifics in the post The words "manager", "employee", "specialist", if there is no explanation about specialization, are too faceless. With a large number of responses, the recruiter may not even open such a resume. Another thing is if these words are not used on their own, but as part of a specific position, for example, "Online Advertising Sales Manager." The more specific the wording, the better. For example, the name "Online Advertising Sales Manager" is better than "Advertising Manager", because the second option will not tell the recruiter anything about you, as it may involve many different specializations. It is also not worth writing in the desired position “any” or “different”, “under discussion”, “I will consider different proposals”. If several positions are suitable for you at once, define at least a professional area: “bank employee” or “IT specialist”. Better yet, create a few resumes , each

How to prepare for an interview by phone or skype

Useful Tips: Preparing for a Scheduled Interview If you have agreed on the time of the call, you have the opportunity to prepare. 1. Choose and prepare a place for your communication Ask the interviewer in advance how much time you will need. If you call from home, warn the family that at a certain time interval you can not be disturbed and you need silence (household background sounds are very distracting and spoil the impression). If you have young children, it’s ideal to make a call at the time of their walk. When phoning from home is not an option, usually the first idea is to talk from a cafe. But this idea is far from the best. Firstly, a cafe where music would not be included, you still need to try to find. Secondly, take into account the time of the call: if it coincides with a business lunch, then as a sound background you will receive a buzz of voices and conversations at neighboring tables. At the same time, given the confidential nature of the conversation, you will

What does the talent market have to do with selling ice cream?

Sometimes your ice cream van sells very few horns. Why? First you need to figure out who eats ice cream most often (have you ever met my children?), And also what ice cream they like. It is necessary to deliver this ice cream to the right place and time, and all this at an affordable price. In addition, you need to attract attention (for example, a three-meter plastic horn and a catchy melody). It is important to make sure that your ice cream is not only beautiful, but also delicious, otherwise you will find that people have begun to look for a replacement for your vanilla cone with chocolate chips. Finally, the main thing is to understand the macro factors that influence the supply and demand in the market. Certain place and time of sale may be more successful than others. In the case of ice cream, everything is relatively simple: the best time is a warm sunny day. HR marketing has a lot to do with selling ice cream. To create and implement a successful strategy, you need to unde

Route built: 5 steps to a new profession

Here are a few recommendations for those who dream of a career change. 1) Understand the reason. Ask yourself a question: are you tired of this profession as a whole or just work in a particular company? If the matter is in your current place, it is worth exploring the job opportunities. Perhaps you will feel happier if new tasks are wider than the current functionality or, conversely, you will have the opportunity to concentrate on your favorite subject area without spraying on related tasks. Maybe you do not have enough business trips or, conversely, you want a more measured schedule. Or maybe you need to think about changing the business role or type of career in the current profession. Finally, it often happens that behind the desire to change a profession is an attempt to escape from a psychological crisis. 2) Analyze the current work. Pay attention to tasks that give you energy, inspire, and what, on the contrary, causes a feeling of powerlessness or irritation. These are cl
