🔍 **Job Seekers: Beware of Fake Check Scams!** 🚨 Navigating the job market can be challenging, and unfortunately, scammers are taking advantage of this. A rising scam that job seekers need to be aware of is the **Fake Check Scam**. Here's how it typically works: 1. **Too Good to Be True Job Offers**: You receive a job offer out of the blue, often with a high salary and minimal requirements. 2. **Check in the Mail**: Shortly after, you're sent a check with instructions to deposit it into your bank account. 3. **Urgent Requests**: You're then asked to use that money to purchase equipment, software, or even to forward part of the funds to a third party. 4. **Check Bounces**: Eventually, the check bounces, leaving you responsible for the entire amount, while the scammer disappears with your money. **Protect Yourself with These Tips:** - **Verify Employers**: Research the company and contact them directly using official contact information. - **Be Skeptical**: If an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is. - **Never Send Money**: Legitimate employers will never ask you to send money or use your funds for any company-related expenses upfront. - **Watch for Red Flags**: Poor grammar, high-pressure tactics, and generic job descriptions are common signs of a scam. Stay vigilant and always trust your instincts. If something feels off, take a step back and reassess. Your financial safety is paramount. #JobSearch #JobSeekerTips #ScamAlert #FakeCheckScam #StaySafe Feel free to share this post to spread awareness and help others avoid falling victim to these scams! 💡🔒

STAFFING MYTH BUSTED: there is no magic candidate pool! 🫢 (Nope, not even the one that 3rd rep of the week promised. 🫣) We are all sourcing from the same population impacted by: 👉🏼economic factors 👉🏼generational trends 👉🏼surplus availability of jobs Each agency navigates this differently. Look again if you notice they: 🔍 throw “bodies” at you to see what sticks ❌causes high turnover, mistrust and everyone ends up burnt out 🔍have high turnover internally ❌employees burn out quickly here, and won’t be organized and ready to handle your needs when it’s crunch time Consider them if you notice they: 🔍take the time to ask the right questions + set honest expectations ✅ they’re likely to send the right employees and deliver on their turnaround commitments 🔍have industry veterans with tenure working internally ✅ when people are taken care of and given proper resources/encouragement, they stick around and incorporate their knowledge + experience into YOUR experience 🔑 If you are ready to upgrade your staffing experience, it would be my honor to discuss a gameplan that will knock your 2024 out of the park.

Is time to hire REALLY the most accurate reflection of how successful a hiring process is? 🤔 What if, your retention rate & probation pass rate were low? 🤷‍♂️ Does having a quick hiring process justify how successful your hiring process is? 👀 What if your hiring process was slightly slower than the market average BUT your probation pass rate & retention rate were very high? Would that be a better way to track how successful your hiring is? 😁

If you are #jobsearching, make sure your #LinkedIn profile is completely filled out. One line about who your company is, and then all the details about how you were a rockstar🎸 in each of your roles.

“Listen, take this with a grain of salt…” is what I usually lead with on resume/interviewing advice… Not because I’m unconfident. But because there’s no standard across recruiting for what sales recruiters look for. I’ve always tried to keep it as direct as possible with the 5 things I know “most” sales recruiters are initially curious about. But honestly, you could talk to three different recruiters in the same day and all three might give you different advice. Weird world. Golf instruction is the same way (fun fact). Hope everyone is having a great weekend. *if you’re been impacted by layoffs and want complimentary advice about your resume, LI profile, interviewing, or job search, send me a DM!* #salesinterviewprotip

🔍 Don't just reach out to any and every recruiter you see on LinkedIn! Be specific with the recruiters you are reaching out to and speaking to. 🛠️ It's like going to a mechanic for accounting help. I wish I could help everyone in every industry, but I'll be fully transparent with you: if it's not in one of the industries we tailor our services to, then there is 100% a better recruiter you should be speaking with. 🔍 Do your research. Make sure the recruiter you are reaching out to has expertise, connections, and knowledge in the industry you are looking to pursue. ⬆️ This will raise your chances significantly in landing a job!

Let's talk resume red flags! Today, I reviewed applications for various positions, and something kept popping up. Several candidates answered "yes" to having the required experience during the screening, but their resumes showed no relevant work history. For example, a candidate might claim 3 years of experience as a dental assistant, but their resume lacks any dental assistant positions. This can be a confusing experience for both recruiters and applicants. Here's how we can bridge the gap: Job Seekers: Tailor your resume to each position you apply for. Highlight relevant past experiences, even if the titles don't perfectly match. For claimed experience, be sure to include specific job titles, company names, and dates of employment. This demonstrates a clear professional journey and allows recruiters to verify your experience. Consider including a brief "Summary of Qualifications" section at the top of your resume. Briefly showcase your key strengths and most relevant skills to grab the hiring manager's attention. By ensuring your resume reflects the skills and experience you bring to the table, you'll create a stronger application and increase your chances of landing an interview. Remember, a well-crafted resume with concrete details builds trust and positions you as a top candidate! #jobsearch #resumewriting #careeradvice
