As fellow Talent Acquisitionist’s we’re ever ready to interact with Candidates we receive. At times while interacting with Candidates it becomes difficult to get the desired information we would like to know about them. This in turn hinders our task and we’re looking for new ways of interacting with them to extract the necessary information.

In view of that we @SourcingAdda decided to assist  Recruiters by directing them in the right way of interacting with Candidates and how they should behaviour towards them to gain the information they seek. Hence, the Whats App Group Chat Wednesday Discussions was on, “How should Recruiter’s behave with or approach different types of Candidates?” as suggested by our Pune  Group member Prateek.  And here’s what we uncovered…

On the basis of the conversation above we can conclude that we as Talent Acquisitionists need to modify the techniques and methods that we implement when interacting with Candidates between interviews. As times change we too need to change the way we do things and streamline our strategies and approaches to Candidate interactions to yield maximum results.

Thus, @SourcingAdda  our motive is to assist Talent Acquisition Professionals in their endeavour of catching the needle in the haystack in order to boost ROI and improve KRAs altogether. We all realise that we need to be up-breast with the latest trends in the Recruitment Industry in order to improve our KPAs. Therefore, if you’re not part of these Whats App Group Wednesday Discussions you have no idea what you’re missing out on. If you’d like to be a part of these discussions do get in touch with us to get added to these groups.

There has been a lot of talk of the Technology Age and how the Recruitment Industry is changing because of the advancement in technology. Given the current scenario it’s obvious that you’ll like to know what challenges Talent Acquisitionists like yourself would face.

In view of this we @SourcingAdda decided to host a Whats App Group discussion on, “What will be the challenges for Recruiters in 2016 as we are in the Technology Age” as suggested by our Gujarat Group member Amit. If you’re just as curious as I am then here’s what we discovered…

Based on the conversation above and the reviews we’ve received we can conclude that it was one heck of a discussion.

We’ve been utilising the popular Social Media Channel i.e. Twitter for quite some time but have you ever stopped to think  about how it has helped you in your ordinary tasks. If not then it’s time to look back on all the aspects about Twitter as a whole to find out how effective it has been in our hunt for Talent.

It’s a good thing that we have our popular WhatsApp Group Chat  Discussion Wednesday’s  as it gives us time to spend on aspects, tools or networking channels that we usually take for granted. No wonder our Wednesday Discussions are important, it’s an opportunity to interact with fellow Talent Acquisitionist’s like your-selves to get to know each other in the Digital World. In reference to the occasion of Twitter completing 10 yrs. Our Group member Kunjal suggested this topic for our discussion with the focus on 2 aspects.  Hence the topic, “As Twitter completes 10 years – It would be great to know if it has helped you…

1. If yes, how?
2. If No, how can we leverage it in a better way?”

And here’s what we uncovered…

That’s it for our discussion; now this was an amazing discussion with lots of take a ways.

We’ve all aware of the changing scenario in the Talent Acquisition Industry and would like to keep ourselves updated by adding to our knowledge from time to time. Keeping this in mind we decided to challenge ourselves and our knowledge about the Recruitment Industry that all are passionate about with a discussion.

And what better way is there than posing it as a discussion topic for our Wednesday’s Discussion that we all so enjoy @SourcingAdda? On that note the discussion topic was on, “Current Hiring Trends or Recruitment channels other than job portals” as suggested by our Bangalore Group i.e. Neha. And here’s what we uncovered…

With the appraisals round the corner everyone is on the hunt to prove why they deserve a raise but how many of us have been realistic in our responses and expectations?  Exactly, most of us usually tend to ignore the reality in our responses and expectations. Everyone wants the max and most definitely expect a hike.

This is the reality hence we @SourcingAdda decided to utilise this opportunity to help you stop and think about things that wouldn’t cross your mind otherwise. The opportunity we are referring to here is our popular Wednesday Discussions. Yet again the discussion topic was suggested by our Whats App Group Chat member from the Delhi group i.e. Raveena. The discussion topic was on, “Appraisal Expectations v/s Reality and why?”  And here’s what we uncovered…

Well we can conclude from the above conversation that there are a few things that make a world of a difference to the appraisals one receives. But we can all be realistic in the pay hikes we would like to get before deciding on the raises. In the meantime we received a lot of responses that we all should think about at the time of our next appraisals.
