Here at FreshMinds we have a wide range of clients from large multi-national organisations to smaller more entrepreneurial type businesses. While every hiring decision is important, when recruiting for a small business the qualities you bring to a team are examined even more thoroughly. This is because most hires are vital to the future of the business and there is the danger of a potential negative impact should they not get the hire right.
Here at FreshMinds, we are very busy, constantly looking for inspiring ways to maximise our productivity. I've recently read an excellent book that I really enjoyed; 'Getting Things Done' - David Allen's bible on 'How to Achieve Stress Free Productivity.'
Sometimes the recruitment process can leave you with long spells between stages, how can you make the most of this time?
Emotional Intelligence can be ‘elusive and difficult to measure’ but has a ‘significance that is far greater than IQ.’ How can you ensure you’re using such an elusive skill set when interviewing for your dream role?
Sadly in the current economic climate, we are meeting more and more candidates who are facing redundancy and considering where to go from here. We’ve been impressed by our candidates’ attitudes and approach and wanted to share what makes them stand out from the crowd.
There are plenty of benefits from using FreshMinds to find your ideal candidate.
A question that we are increasingly being asked by many of our candidates is "how do I remain successful given the current economic market?". Understanding the secrets of success is not just pondered when times are difficult but continually fascinates so many of us.
