Candidates are the core factor of ‘hiring’. Both recruiters and employers find this to be the mutual blood of recruitment! However, Candidates face an indelible number of hurdles. Our Job Envoy team has brainstormed our tactics into a digestible list of pointers to help candidates tackle their recruitment fears, while framing your forte!
- Uncertainty in job choices: Whether you are a newbie or if you are facing a midlife crisis, our brains can play mind games, twisting plots and making it hard for us to pick the rational job. In times of urgency or when the country faces the constraints of an economic concussion, it can be human to turn to any possible income source regardless of its benefits in the long run of one’s career. Candidates with an abrupt change in career fields might fight it hard to pin down the perfect job. To avoid any possible destruction of one’s career, candidates can take a pre-cautious step by facing a career assessment tool to understand one’s interest and career capabilities. This can help you stick with jobs related to your own industry and interests! ?
- Value over qualifications and skills: Experience and qualification acquired over the years give your career a kick start. Hence, the value given to your job must always be on par with your qualifications. A clever candidate’s mind will constantly bargain the designation and the pay, along with the flexibility, the mental peace, and the growth factor within a company!
- Eye-catching positions and interest: Following up the previous notion of evaluating one’s importance in the field of recruitment. This is often forgotten or underrated by candidates taking up jobs during critical times as the present one. The value given to money is impeccably high and usually intrudes with one’s (job) capacity, leading candidates to offer more service for less pay. This can be harmful to their self-esteem and their career journey. Therefore, a wiser candidate would settle on a designation that defines them and their interest within their field!
- Pay matters: The value given to monetary benefits must never be compromised. Although the basic notion of a job is to get money, most individuals tend to repress this need by the urgency to find a stable source of incomes. Money matters! But you must be paid for your value, isn’t it? So, do not hesitate to request for a number on par with the market standards. Make sure they recognize your worth!?
- Do your own background check: The business world is overcrowded with companies of different sizes, run by different people and is functioning under different motives. How certain can you be about the company that accepts you? A basic google search can also help you navigate your understanding here. However, in an instance where you feel a little suspicious of certain policies, despite the good pay, it would be ‘recommended’ to dig a little deeper. Talk to someone in the industry or even a friend. Either ways, a background check is mandatory!?
- Narrow down the perfect jackpot: Now doesn’t that seem appealing! – Picture this; Uplifting environment, great pay, reputed designation, a dynamic team, a peaceful mindset to work and the freedom to think! Yes, that sounds about right. Working in a company is never about the pay or the status. Its about the growth, the flexibility, the freedom to share opinions and the perfect work-life balance. Until you find this, keep looking!?
Our team at Job Envoy understands this firmly as we follow corporate with a flexible attitude! This our gentle advice to all the candidates out there is to never let your job limit to a certain box. Seek the dynamic work atmosphere and embrace the limitless possibility of growth! At Job Envoy, we appreciate mindsets more than materialistic demands.
