Every person they place has an amazing track record, MBA+, beautiful resume etc, but they know how to read between the lines. The smallest thing in the way a resume is written or a question is answered can completely shift the way you are looked at by the placement team as well as the clients.
I really hope you find what your looking for and wish you the best  |
Oh boy do I ever agree with you on this - and this is exactly why if I have something to say, I do it without calling names, putting anyone down and if I am having a discussion, you will rarely ever even see the word damn out of me - because I am a firm believer in a person being judged on how they handle the good is a far better use of their character traits and what I'd be looking for than anything good - anyone can take a good situation and make it ok - but a bad one, that is how I want to be judged, in how I handle the bad ones - and I TRY and always handle them as best and professionally as I can - so I get what you are saying probably better than anyone.
And I also, and 200% think, that a person should be able to voice their opinion as long as it is not in the line of a personal attack, which I have not done here - but they should be able to question and ask and voice without fear of retaliation - there isn't anything wrong with that to me - now if I came here and called them, or anyone, a bunch of nasty names - sure, jump all over me - I'd deserve that.
BUT, sending someone resumes - asking for jobs, applying for them and then following up, that shouldn't ever be seen as negative - or bad or anything, I'd think that would be a bit of a show of "This person is determined and wants a job and wants to work", that's how I would see it.
My husband actually used to work in a Human Resources Office as well years and years ago and he was the one that did all of the hiring for a few upstart places in our area - so he knows as well - you can call and ask, and so on, but don't call him and jump him, because it will get you nowhere - but a simple discussion or followup - that is seen as fine - at least in my mind.
Everyone wants a different personality - I want one with a spine, a set of testicles, an opinion - and the respect to voice that without being snarky and mean - which is all I am trying to do.
