On One Key Reason Your Employment
Ads Aren't Attracting Highly Qualified
Candidates:
It all begins with language, non-verbal
communication and role clarification.
We all see the ads daily. And we have to wonder why.
Do you really want to use words like 'Superstar' and 'Rock Star' in
your career ads when seeking highly talented professionals?
What personality types will this attract?
Performers, perhaps.
And who is turned off by these word choices, removing you from
their consideration set, labeling your company as ‘not suitable’?
It’s also important to remember that those who are self-proclaimed
'Rock Stars' are rarely good for the whole team.
We have so many words available to say what we need to say. The
dictionary may take longer, so we suggest a thesaurus.
And we can all benefit from spending more time explaining what
skills (transferable skills, even) are required and what a day is like on
these teams.
At this point, there is an enormous gap that
needs to be closed.
And as is our style, we are here to bridge it.

seeking the best candidates as we begin our
'Interview Insider' series in September.
We are excited to watch an increasing group of dynamic industry
professionals embrace this #PowerOfPartnerships and
#BetterTogether philosophy when it comes to all things 'People'
and Careers.
Your Career and your Company matter to us.

In the meantime, let's try parking Rock Stars. They're getting old
and have done their time.
