At every recruiting conference I address, there is one complaint more prevalent than any other : “It’s really difficult to find qualified candidates.” But the truth is, this is actually a good thing for staffing and recruiting professionals. If it was easy to find great candidates, there would be no need for your services. However, that doesn’t mean that the challenge of finding top talent doesn’t get tiring.

Phone interviews may seem easier and less intimidating than face to face interviews and in some ways, they are. After all, you and the interviewer can’t see each other which means you can be less self-conscious about your outfit selection or a random facial tic. You may think it’s a good thing that the interviewer can’t see your body language over the phone, because that way your mannerisms won’t reveal your nervousness.

What’s the distance between your company culture and your brand? Answer: There shouldn’t be any. A company culture that’s authentic and deep will translate through the employer brand, conveying the same tone, the same mission, the same values to job seekers and new hires that it does to fully entrenched (and hopefully engaged) employees. But if we’re out of the dark ages in terms of the new World of Work, we’re still in the dim outskirts.
