QUESTIONS ASKED:
3:44 - How has recruiting changed for you personally in your organization since COVID and the lockdowns have started?
9:13 - Are you feeling like you're getting flooded? Do you feel like it's harder to find the right candidate as the needle in the haystack? Or you're just getting so many more good candidates? Like, how is that changing your inbox?
14:52 - What can job searchers out there do to make sure that they are standing out when they reach out to you, whether it's when they apply, before they apply, or after they apply?
20:48 - What have other specific candidates in the past done that really stood out for you? Are there any examples of how you see someone as a career changer or who really delivered the goods?
23:33 - When do you want to hear from people (applicants)? Or when is the best time to reach out to you?
26:36 - What is your best advice to those who are trying to make either a career change or an industry change?
33:01 - What are your opinions on employment gaps? Especially right now?
34:25 - Do any of you advise putting employment gaps on the resume itself or wait until the interview?
36:10 - Do you all still have time to go through messages on LinkedIn that you get from strangers? How many do you get now during the pandemic, as opposed to how many you receive before?
37:46 - Do you see senior caliber people applying for more junior roles, AKA trading down, given that they lost their jobs? Does it make it tougher for newer candidates because they're up against people with more experience, consuming lower levels, or does it kind of knock those senior people out because you already have people applying at those lower levels?
41:09 - What's the best way to pick back up communication with a connection that maybe you've dropped the ball with, or haven't been keeping in touch with? What's the best way for them to get back in touch with you? What are you going to be most receptive to?
43:15 - When screening through resumes, are you drawn more to people who are currently employed, but wanting to make a career change? Or to people who are in line with the role but has that employment gap?
44:03 - What are your thoughts on the pay ranges seem to be significantly lower than what they were before?
45:34 - Will I get disqualified by recruiters or hiring managers if I apply for an individual contributor role, having lead teams in smaller companies but are no longer interested in leading teams and want to sort of make that transition?
48:26 - What's the inside scoop on ATS system, any tips, especially for transitioning roles, what's the best way to get through those systems?
51:06 - General advice + Closing Thoughts + Work Opportunities
