Interview Tips :- Please DON'T... ❌ Bad mouth your previous employer, previous colleagues or previous boss. If you have nothing nice to say... ❌ Lie about your figures, achievements and jobs on your CV. The truth always comes out and we all know where we have worked, for how long and what we have billed. ❌ Swear, repeatedly demonstrating your knowledge of the alphabet with a number of different profanities. ❌ Text your recruiter cancelling the meeting saying you've got a sickness bug, forgetting that you follow each other on instagram and she can see the post you have just put up with your mates drinking in front of the cricket. And finally, still my favorite ❌ Turn up to your Teams interview in a face mask, even if it is your birthday and you're prepping and pampering for your night out. Yep, all real life examples of some top notch interview etiquette! What would you like to add? For more follow DRK Consultancy (Recruitment Agency) #drkconsultancy #interview #career #tips #guide

A WORD OF ADVICE FOR JOB HUNTERS! Applicants for job opportunities on LI are at the highest we've ever seen 🤯 I can speak for most recruiters when I say, there are few of us with the time capacity to screen 300+ CVs for an urgent role. My current routes to market include reaching out initially to my network - people already I know from spending 100% of my time in a pretty niche space over the past 3.5 years. If you've worked with a recruiter in the past, it's worth reaching out to them directly so you're on their radar! Next approach, we're headhunting. If your LI profile is lacking relevant detail about your experience, skills, specific technology experience, we won't find you! If you need any specific advice on this, have a listen to an episode of the FODCast from James Hodges & Jessica Semrau-Tolley - I'll stick it in the comments. AND FINALLY, people that have been referred onto me from people in my network are getting prioritised. If you're someone I've spoken to or had engagement with before, I'm likely to hold your opinion in high regard. So, get tagging relevant referrals on LI posts, OR better still, introduce people in a chat on LI messaging! If anyone wants any further advice, my inbox is open ☺️ #digitalcommerce #recruitment

Having welcomed Asad Ullah into the team at the start of the month, William Perrott is hitting a big landmark for any startup agency just 9 months into his journey.

I have been speaking to more and more individuals recently who are curious to know where their current salary sits with the market rate, and therefore play a big factor with opening up a search into new opportunities for them. The JGA Recruitment Group salary calculator is also a extremely useful tool, if you are looking to benchmark your current payroll team, to help improve employee retention going into 2025 and remain competitive. Please get in contact if you wish to discuss in detail and require support on the above! 📩 [email protected] #salarybenchmarking
