Self-directed: After a short telephone call, the candidate and a headhunter meet in person. During the presentation of one's own career, one's own successes, the assessment of which actually belongs to the counterpart, the greatest failure as well as the lack of references in the last company become unpleasant topics. The lack of research of ER beyond the requirements of the job advertisement stands out additionally negatively.
NewPlacement: 3rd week pre-application meeting with headhunter goes well. The success talk about own management record is oriented to the demand factors of the searching company in relation to the job ad, homepage, headhunter, digital company ego as well as the decision makers in the company, which the coach had explored and docked NP in his individual success talk. Also the change motivations, internal counter offers, integrated strengths and weaknesses, the biggest failure with learnings and resultant as well as the references in the previous company enable NP to make a strong match.
Our recommendations:
9. the professional candidate supports the headhunter in his filtering function with an individual matching and an individual short profile after the joint meeting to pass on to the company.
10. should the headhunter invite to a pure "get to know you", the success presentation should be adjusted based on the reactions of the counterpart. Only after that, if necessary, a project is offered. Here, too, the short profile must be adapted for the company.
