5 mistakes that stop tech executives from getting interviews

While TV dramas often showcase police interviewers squeezing information out of suspects, the reality is rather different; speaking at a recent conference Dr. Frances Surmon-B?hr, a psychologist and science-based interview expert, explained why the interpersonal skills and rapport-building techniques integral to the ORBIT interviewing model are the real keys to a successful interrogation, as Policing Insight’s James Sweetland reports. ?Ultimately, all we really did was look at interviews to identify what the most successful interviewers do, compared to interviewers who weren’t so successful at engaging suspects and getting information out.? - Dr Frances Surmon-B?hr, University of Liverpool ?With a highly dominant suspect who wants to control the situation, if you try to fight for that control, you’ll end up in a power struggle. So, the ORBIT model predicts that you should go low, go in modest, humble, seeking guidance to enable the most productive communication with that person.? - Dr Frances Surmon-B?hr, University of Liverpool ?Rapport must be continuously worked at in order to actually maintain it. That’s important from the moment you meet someone, all the way through your relationship in and out of the interview.? - Dr Frances Surmon-B?hr, University of Liverpool ?Even the smallest amount of maladaptive behaviour – behaviour that’s antithetical to rapport, like being judgemental, accusatorial or confrontational – has a massive negative impact on yield.? - Dr Frances Surmon-B?hr, University of Liverpool [SUBSCRIBER ARTICLE] https://lnkd.in/e_KFBJVk #lawenforcement #policing #police #investigation

The Ghost in the Job Search Machine This is a condensed version of my original blog, Ghosting is Normalized. For the full article and to read other practical advice for thriving in today's business environment, visit Leavitt Consulting Group. https://lnkd.in/dzfXzTvN The Rise of Ghosting I was recently talking with HR Professional?Katy Duke Chamberlin?about ghosting. "Ghosting has become a frustrating norm in the modern job search," she said. "Staying patient, persistent, and professional in your follow-ups can help turn silence into opportunity." This year, several staffing recruiters stopped communicating after engaging in intense discussions about opportunities. Staffing recruiters are under tremendous pressure to fill roles quickly. Generally, company recruiters seem less likely to engage in this type of activity because they understand the negative impact that ghosting can have on their company brand. There really is no excuse for hiring managers and companies who ghost candidates after a first round interview. Why Ghosting Happens There can be dozens of reasons why you get ghosted; the recruiter is overwhelmed, there is a high volume of applicants for the role, job requirements were never locked down, or another more qualified candidate got the role. And the Wall Street Journal just published a story that just adds to the confusion, "Ghost Jobs: Fake Job Postings Are Becoming a Real Problem." What You Can Do Because you can never predict the cause for perceived ghosting, I recommend that you patiently and persistently push for responses when communications dry up. Set up a respectful cadence of communication attempts--they might have very good reasons for not previously replying (My complete blog post has a sample email template you can use). Also, keep a record of all your communication attempts, including dates, details of conversations, as well as received responses. This will help you track patterns, stay organized, and even analyze what methods or tones are most effective in getting replies. I recently converted my job search tracking to a free CRM platform that I also use for business development. This enables me to track of all of my pursuits, and make notes on the outcomes, including when ghosting occurs and who is doing it. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this issue. Have you ever been ghosted by a recruiter, hiring manager, or job applicant? How did you handle it? Share your experiences in the comments below, and let's continue the conversation. In the next installments of this series, I'll dig in to emergence of Generative AI and how you can use it to you advantage on a daily basis.
