WHO’S WRONG?

As I read all sorts of post and articles about the way people are hiring now and how individuals are

trying to get hired, I keep thinking, nothing really has changed. Employers are still trying to figure out

how to attract the right candidate and the candidate is still trying to find the right way of getting hired.

So, what has changed?

ATTITUDE!!!

Regardless, if you are an employer or employee, you want all that you can have. So why do people make

it so hard on themselves? Because they see others doing so and they think they must do the same

thing.

WRONG

If you have a role that needs to be filled, make sure you have all the buy in from all the hiring

authorities, make sure the job description is updated and has the needs and wants on there. Make sure

you are offering the right salary for the right value you are looking for. And when you meet the right

person, you hire them. You don’t ponder and think, “is this the best?” you just hire them because they

are the best. STOP WAITING.

If you are trying to find the right role, don’t make it so difficult on yourself. If you see a role that fits your

needs and wants by at least 60%, go for it. Know who you are and share it with them. Don’t hold back,

don’t be humble, be authentic. What does your personal Job Description say you want to do and can

do? Have you written your own Job Description?

YES, we are going through difficult times with difficult matters at hand and with decisions and choices

that were never put in front of us before. But we are smart, and we stay aware of our surroundings. You

don’t need to follow everyone, just yourself. No matter if you are hiring or want to be hired.

If attitude is what got us thinking and changing before, we can certainly change it again.

Is your ATTITUDE headed in the right direction?
