Rethinking Rejection: 3 Steps for Candidate Success Recruitment

Rethinking Rejection: 3 Steps for Candidate Success

Rejection is a crucial part of life: it's where we learn and make the most growth as both workers and human beings overall. But, perhaps because it's not often treated as a step in growth—or perhaps because it's simply an uncomfortable feeling—rejections are not always offered as meaningfully as they should be.

Already, as of June 2023, the platform has reportedly hit over 100 billion visits.

How to Deliver Your Business’s Core Values

When the company was just a few years old, tech mega-giant Google penned an article on their company's philosophy: "Ten things we know to be true." And, as they suggest on their current About page, they continually check-in to ensure they are holding themselves accountable to these core values they started the company on. In fact, they even encourage their clients to hold them accountable to these core values, as well. And while Google is by no means a perfect organization, this is one of the main reasons why it, to us, is an extremely respectable company. It holds and…

The Best Business Development Practices for Recruiters

With the great fluctuations in the job market we saw in 2020 and 2021 came a high demand for talent and thus for recruiters. In 2022, as Jack Kelly writes for Forbes, businesses were struggling to find enough workers to meet the new demands at their companies, and as such, are constantly looking for solutions.

Just as Greg Savage states in “17 Selling Tips for…

4 Tricks for Writing a Perfect Cover Letter for Any Job

These days, applying for many jobs is as easy as clicking two buttons (thank you, Easy Apply on LinkedIn!). But what about the cases where Easy Apply is not an option?
