How Our Need for Instant Answers Changes the Candidate Experience

How Our Need for Instant Answers Changes the Candidate ExperienceThink about all the information you have access to through your phone. When you order something online you know exactly where it is on its journey to your door. If you get separated from your friends at a sporting event, you can find them with apps like Find My Friends. When a big news story is unfolding, you get updates nearly every second.All this information was inconceivable only a few years ago. Having increased access to whatever we want to know has created a dependency on instant transparency. As a society, we no longer accept anything that barricades us from knowledge. Yet despite these cultural changes, many organizations think job seekers are still alright being in the dark for most of the hiring process. This is far from reality the mora candidates can get instant answers in other aspects of their lives, the mora they expect from potential employers. Avoiding our instant society means candidates get impatient with your process and your company will miss out on top talent. By understanding how candidates expectations have changed because of our obsession with instant, you can refine your hiring process and improve the candidate experience. Here are three expectations candidates now haveConsistent communicationThink about most of the activity you do online retail purchases, newsletter subscriptions, signing up for a new streaming service. After you complete each action, you instantly receive a confirmation email verifying that the transaction is complete. Then you get further communications based on where you are in the process. You receive tracking information for packages, customer satisfaction surveys, and notifications of new shows added to Netflix. However, when job seekers apply for a position online, its like theyre sending their application into a black hole. Yes, they often get a confirmation that their application was received, but thats it. They dont receive employer branding m aterial to help them learn more about the company. When they have a question, theres no contact information allowing them to seek answers. And if they arent selected to move forward, they probably never learn why.Companies need to be able to communicate quickly and more consistently with candidates. Otherwise, their candidate experience pales compared to other online relationships with organizations. Here is some key information you should be communicating with candidates throughout the hiring processNext steps If you use automated confirmation emails after receiving an application, make sure the message has value. Instead of just saying Well be in touch, provide a detailed timeline of the hiring process. Include when candidates will hear from you as well as how long each step takes.Helpful tips One of the biggest complaints companies have about candidates is that they are unprepared for the hiring process or bad fits for the role. But then they refuse to share information that will help job seekers better understand what they are looking for. Of course, you shouldnt give candidates a list of the correct job interview answers. However, giving them information about your company culture and how your team works together allows them to provide the most relevant information about themselves.Feedback Never forget that candidates are investing time in the hiring process. Even if it turns out theyre not the right fit you dont want to ruin their candidate experience by letting them think theyve wasted their time. When you provide them feedback after each step, they can learn and improve professionally. Consistently give candidates the information they need during the hiring process to improve the CandidateExperience.Click To TweetA transparent environmentGranted, job seekers never wanted to work in a toxic or hostile work environment. However, in the past candidates couldnt truly judge what a workplace was like until their first day. Now there are websites like Glassd oor that give them an insiders look at your company.Know that most job seekers trust online reviews over what you tell them about the organization. This means you need to be aware of what your visible employer brand is and ensure your hiring process aligns appropriately. For example, if the majority of the online employee reviews describe your office as a caring place, highlight that during the hiring process. Put your employee well-being programs in your job descriptions and encourage current employees to talk with candidates about how the company supports them inside and outside of work.If your employer reviews are less than great, dont try to hide them from candidates. Be honest and discuss the issues early during the hiring process. Just be sure to have solutions to the problems so candidates can see youre working to improve the situation.In-depth updatesThanks to social media, our society is used to having day-to-day updates about whats happening in the world. We celebrate frie nds successes no matter how far apart we live. Our favorite brands let us know when there are new products or discounts available. Job seekers expect the same during their candidate experience.When doing their research, candidates dont just look for the big announcements of your company. They want to know whats going on in the office and how employees are spending their workdays. This gives them a better understanding of what it would be like to work for your organization.Use social media to highlight all thats going on with your company. Shoot to create a feeling of FOMO so candidates feel like they have to work on the team and get the same great experience they see online. Go further than posting pictures of company events. Post employee profiles that share what the individual loves about working for your organization. This sustains candidates interest and gives them the confidence theyd be happy coming to work for you every day.Candidates want to know everything about your organi zation, including daily socialmedia updates about the workplace.Click To Tweet

The Navy Limited Duty Officer Selection Program

The Navy Limited Duty Officer Selection ProgramThe Navy Limited Duty Officer Selection ProgramThe United States Navy has a system of officers, unique among the U.S. Military Services. Like the other tafelgeschirrs, the Navy has noncommissioned officers, which they term Petty Officers. These are enlisted personnel in the grades of E-4 through E-9.? As with the Army and Marine Corps, the Navy has Chief Warrant Officers. Navy Chief Warrant Officers (CWOs) are technical specialists who demonstrate knowledge and skills of a specific occupational field at a level beyond what is normally expected a Master Chief Petty Officer (E-9). The confusion comes in the commissioned officer corps (yes, warrants are technically commissioned, but to avoid terminology confusion, well refer to warrants as CWOs and the O-paygrade Officers as commissioned). The Navy divides their commissioned officer force into several categories. For example, a JAG lawyer is a staff officer. Because of his/her specialized l egal training, he/she will remain a lawyer during his/her career. You wont find a senior JAG officer commanding an aircraft carrier, for example. When most people think of commissioned officers in the Navy, theyre thinking of Unrestricted Line Officers. For the most part, behauptung are the officers who are commissioned through ROTC, the Naval Academy, or Officer Candidate School (OCS). These officers perform variouschanging duties (jobs) throughout their career and are the ones who grow up to become commanders of ships and admirals commanding entire battle groups. The Navy has a third group of commissioned officers, unique among the services - the LDO, or Limited Duty Officer. LDOs are former senior enlisted personnel (or CWOs), who were considered very highly skilled in their Navy job (rating), and selected to become a commissioned officer. As the name implies, Limited Duty Officers, unlike Unrestricted Line Officers, are commissioned officers with a limited career path. For exam ple, a Supply Officer LDO is going to spend his/her career as a Supply Officer (unless he/she applies for and is accepted to change their career path, but this is rather rareand would depend on their previous education and experience). LDOs differ from CWOs primarily in the degree of responsibility. LDOs out-rank CWOs, and are generally paid mora. The Limited Duty Officer Selection Program LDOs are technically oriented officers in specific occupational fields and requiring strong managerial skills. The Limited Duty Officer Program provides commissioning opportunities to qualified senior enlisted personnel and Chief Warrant Officers (CWOs). Chief Petty Officers (E-7 through E-9), and E-6 personnel who are selection board eligible for E-7, and all CWOs may qualify for this program. In addition to the LDO program, the Navy has a Chief Warrant Officer Program to select senior enlisted personnel to become CWOs. The LDO and CWO Programs are open to both active duty and Selected Reserv e (SELRES) personnel. Qualified personnel may apply for both LDO and CWO simultaneously. A baccalaureate degree is bedrngnis required however, it is encouraged. Leadership ability, military qualifications, and technical expertise remain the key factors leading to selection. Eligibility Enlisted personnel must be serving as a Petty Officer First Class (E-6) or Chief Officer (E-7 through E-9). An E-6 must have served in that capacity for at least 1 year as of 1 October of the year application is made. Such service shall be computed from the time-in-rate (TIR) date for an E-6. If broken service is involved, a PO1 must have served a total of at least 1 year as an E-6 as of 1 October of the year application is made.E-6 applicants must complete all eligibility requirements for E-7 (except TIR and LTC) and must successfully compete in the annual Navy-wide examination for advancement to Chief Petty Officer, receiving a final multiple equal to, or greater than, the extremum final multipl e for E-7 selection board eligibility. Personnel accepted to the LDO program attend leadership training via the LDO/CWO Officer Indoctrination School. Therefore Leadership Training Continuum is leid required for E-6 taking the E-7 exam for the express purpose of applying for LDO. E-6 applicants must forward a copy of their most current examination profile sheet with their application. An E-6 is exempt from the requirements of this subparagraph when notification has been received by the commanding officer that the individual is a selectee for Chief Petty Officer or that advancement to Chief Petty Officer has been authorized. Active duty enlisted personnel must have completed at least 8, but not more than 16 years of active naval service (day-for-day) exclusive of Active Duty for Training (ADT) in the Naval, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard Reserve as of 1 October of the year application is made.Inactive duty enlisted personnel must have completed at least 8, but not more than 16 years of total qualifying Federal service as of 1 October of the year application is made. Total qualifying Federal service for the purpose of this instruction is defined in Title 10, U.S.C., Section 12732 as time served with a component of the naval service. In computing the qualifying service eligibility requirement for Ready Reservists, constructive time cannot be credited. CWOs applying for the program must have completed at least 3 years of active duty as a CWO and no more than 19 years of total active service immediately preceding 1 October of the year application is made. Such service shall be computed from the initial date of rank as a CWO and active duty base date. Applicants are ineligible to apply if they are in a one-time failure to select (1x FOS) status date of the boards.U.S. citizenship is required and cannot be waived.Must be of good moral character and have no record of disciplinary action underArticle 15, nocourt-martial convictionor civilian felony conviction, or convict ion by a civil court for misdemeanors (except minor traffic violations ($300.00 or less)) in the past 3 years as of 1 October of the year application is made. Any substantiateddrug or alcohol abusewithin the last 3 years as of 1 October of the year application is made will result in disqualification. Must be a high school graduate or possess an equivalency certificate.Must be physically qualified for appointment per the physical standards outlined in theManual of the Medical Department, Chapter 15.Must meetphysical fitness standardsof satisfactory-medium or higher per OPNAVINST 6110.1 at the time of application and appointment.Must not exceedHigh Year Tenure (HYT)requirements.Active duty personnel serving in Humanitarian (HUMS) or Limited Duty (LIMDU) assignments will not be permitted to accept their commission until the situation is completely resolved. Inactive duty personnel serving in Not Physically Qualified (NPQ) or Temporarily Not Physically Qualified (TNPQ) status will not b e permitted to accept their commission until their status is completely resolved.Favorably recommended by their commanding officer. (Inactive duty applicants must be favorably recommended by their unit commanding officer). LDO Job Designators LDO designators are designed to provide positiveidentification ofsurface, submarine, and aviation warfare, general series, and staff corps associated personnel, and to identify a broad occupational field or technical area. The following describes the different classifications within designators and their associated warfare, general series, or staff corps fields 61XX - CWO Surface Warfare62XX - CWO Submarine Warfare63XX - CWO Aviation Warfare65XX - CWO Staff Corps Surface and submarine warfare communities require LDOs with the same or similar occupational qualifications. Candidates need not possess a particular warfare qualification to apply for an LDO designator in that particular community. Obviously, not every enlisted rating is competiti vely qualified for designations within different warfare communities, and application should not be made for an inappropriate category, e.g., aGunners Mate(GM) should not normally apply for 626X, Ordnance Officer (submarine), but rather should apply for 616X, Ordnance Officer (surface). Eligible candidates may apply for up to two designators which may be in different occupational fields e.g., Ordnance Officer (616X) and Electronics Officer (618X) - the same occupational field, but different warfare communities e.g., Ordnance Officer (Surface 616X) and Ordnance Officer (Submarine 626X) - or a combination of the two e.g., Ordnance Officer (Submarine 626X) and Electronics Officer (Surface 618X). If selected for LDO, any request for change of designator will not normally be approved until the initial obligation of 4 years as an LDO has been served. Advancement Path Selected Reservists are often uniquely qualified by or civilian occupation to apply for designators outside the norma l career path of their current rating. Selected Reservists who are in this category are encouraged to apply for designator(s) that closely align with either their civilian and/or military occupational specialties. Service with the Army,Air Force, Marine Corps, and/or Coast Guard may be credited to meet the minimal service requirement when it can be clearly documented, by the applicant, that service in another branch provided the requisiteur training and expertise that directly relates to and parallels the needs and requirements of the naval service. If applicable, comments regarding experience gained in another branch of service, to include the relation of the experience with the Navys needs and requirements, should be included in the applicants personal statement of the Officer Programs Application. The commanding officer will attest to such qualifications in his/her endorsing statement.

Is Caller ID Sabotaging Your Job Search

Is Caller ID Sabotaging Your Job SearchCaller ID Sabotaging Job SearchIs Caller ID Sabotaging Your Job SearchHeres a real-world, this-really-happened lesson for job seekers If your cell phone or land line is set up to reject calls that dont show up in caller ID, you might be screening yourself right out of an interview. This is exactly what happened when one of Resumes hiring directors (well call her Mary) tried to call some job candidates earlier this week.Mary welches working from her home office, preparing to call the most promising candidates for an open position here at. Her plan was to conduct the initial phone screens that would help her decide who seemed interview-worthy. Since she was using a cell phone, Mary used the *67 trick to prevent her personal number from appearing on the candidates phone. (Let me back up, in case youre not up to speed on caller ID codes. Entering *67 on your phone keypad before you place a call blocks your number from appearing in the other partys c aller ID. Their phone instead displays the message Unavailable, or something similar. The *67 code works in North America other countries use different codes.)So Mary called the first candidate, and instead of an eager job seekers voice, she heard a pre-recorded message that went something like this The party you are trying to reach has declined your call. Please call back after enabling caller ID. Guess what? She didnt call back. She moved on to the next candidate and thought, Maybe Ill call this one tomorrow from my office line and get through. Maybe. Since this had happened to her several times before, Mary decided to do an informal poll. She called a few recruiter friends, who acknowledged that this kind of thing happens all the time, and it can be very frustrating.If youve programmed your phone to reject unidentified calls, its probably because you want to screen out telemarketers, or maybe you just like to know whos calling before you answer. But some people do it for another reason, as one of Marys recruiter friends pointed outWhen I reach a job candidate whose phone is set up to reject unidentified callers, it raises a red flag, said this tech recruiter from New York City. It makes me wonder if theyre dodging creditors. Definitely not a perception you want to leave with a prospective employer.While were on the topic, heres mora advice about job seeker phone blunders.Bottom line Whenever youre actively searching for a job, disable the blocked call feature. Its far better to have to hang up on a few telemarketers or answer a few wrong numbers than to turn away potential interviews. After youve landed the job you want, go ahead and reactivate it.Job seekers Do you like to block unidentified calls? Is the perception brought up in this post fair?Recruiters Have any other thoughts about how candidates might unknowingly be sabotaging their chances?

Your overactive imagination may not be as good for you as you think

Your overactive imagination may not be as good for you as you thinkYour overactive imagination may not be as good for you as you thinkNaturalist John Muir once said, The power of imagination makes us infinite. But new research begs to differ.Two researchers from British universities conducted laboratory-based and verbunden studies to test whether imagination does actually have a connection to learning and creativity. What they found may surprise you.Conventional wisdom and a slew of quotes from Albert Einstein imply that imagination is a requisite for intellect and those with overactive imaginations are more likely to be brilliant innovators. But recent scientific work suggests that what weve assumed for centuries may not actually be true.We found that imagination is only weakly associated with learning achievement and creativity, the studys authors wrote in the British Journal of Psychology.Imagination is, however, associated with another trait. According to the research, imaginatio n - or creating mental representations of concepts, ideas, and sensations that are not contemporaneously perceived by the senses - comprises 22.5% of the variance in schizotypal beliefs.And what are those, you may ask?A schizotypal personality disorder is a diagnosis among people who demonstrate odd or eccentric behavior and rarely have friends, according to Mayo Clinic. Those with schizotypal personality disorder tend to harbor peculiar thinking and often times believe that powers such as telepathy exist, the clinic explains.The studys authors concluded that their research indicates imagination may be more indicative of cognitive eccentricities rather than benefit the accumulation of knowledge or production of novel and useful ideas. So perhaps its time to stop romanticizing living in a world of your imagination - that may not mean what you think it means.
