Ep 131: Your relationship with recruiters
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Personally connect with hiring managers and recruiters during the hiring process. Avoid putting pressure on them to help you with your career. If they don’t have an interview for you - it could be a timing issue, but that’s not reflective of you.
Hiring managers and recruiters are people too. They have bad days, stressful days so cut them a break. If you understand their situation and contribute as you would when networking, you’ll get better results.
