Recruiters inside 'Hiring Mavens' are tackling the tough questions that come with real-world hiring challenges. ⬇️ Here’s a glimpse of the serious issues being tackled: - How do you manage a rehire when one manager is on board but another is strongly against it? - How would you handle rehiring a candidate while keeping things transparent and tension-free? - How do you attract fresh applicants without recycling the same pool from a previous job post? - Should you send rejection letters to previous applicants before reopening a role? - What’s the smartest way to approach DEI data collection? - Do 'thank you' notes after interviews still make a difference?

Ok LinkedIn I see 4 postings of the same job, same exact description, located in Berkeley heights but posted by 4 different so called companies. The fourth I couldn’t screen shot in this photo because it’s further down but they were all posted within the last 4 hours.. This can not be real. I can’t imagine a company is paying four recruiters to fill one role.. Is that a thing? Recruiters chime in I need answers. #fakepostings #companyrecruiternonsense #jobhuntingwoes

I want to apologize to everyone who’s taken the time to submit a job application to us and never heard anything back. Starting Monday every time we close a role, we'll email everyone that applied to give them data and context on what happened with that specific role. We'll share things like: How many people applied How many people we spoke with What it was that made resumes stand out Stats on any numeric data we collected in our application If you applied to a role with us on or after March 1st, you will get one of these emails in the next two weeks. Please message Forward directly via our company page if you were expecting but didn't receive one of these emails by June 14th. Employers, including us, need to do better. --- Edit: Thank you to everyone who is amplifying this post, your response speaks volumes. To everyone out there who’s looking and whose time and emotional well-being has been taken for granted by employers: I'm sorry. The community here sees you and you deserve better. To everyone fortunate enough to be hiring: I know it can be overwhelming but I hope this makes you want to create a better experience for the folks applying to your roles. What’s good for candidates is ultimately good for you. Here's to a better tomorrow.

I am truly inspired by Peter's commitment to improving the job application process. We need to address how technology has negatively affected the job search for both employers and applicants. Employers are overwhelmed with applications, and ghosting is rampant on both sides. Peter's solution-oriented approach is exactly what we need. By providing applicants with data and context about their applications, he's setting a new standard for transparency and respect in the hiring process. Thank you for doing this, Peter! I hope more people get on board. #JobSearch #Hiring #Recruitment #JobMarket #TechInHiring #Employment #JobSeekers #RecruitmentSolutions
