Communication is the key to recruit strong candidates

interview process

Sometimes the size of the company, the complexity of the position or the availability of hiring managers can mean the hiring process lasts for several weeks or longer. For particularly motivated candidates, companies may even be able to request an agreement that states the candidate will not interview with other companies until the hiring team has reached a decision.

By failing to follow up with a candidate 24 to 48 hours after a conversation, the candidate may think the company is not interested in their candidacy. At a minimum, be in touch with all prospective candidates on a weekly basis to keep them up to date on hiring decisions and other relevant information.

If a recruiter is required to continually reassure a candidate of interest on the company’s part, it is only a matter of time before trust unravels. When a company puts off making a decision, it increases the chances that someone else is going to pursue or even submit an offer to the candidate.

The more a company communicates its interest and progress to the candidate, the better its chances are of hiring an enthusiastic employee at a price that fits the budget.

Tomorrow's ‘general’ AI revolution will grow from today's technology

In today's pop culture, machines with artificial general intelligence (AGI) are typically portrayed as walking, talking human analogs replete with personalities -- from the Terminator's murderous intent to Vision's noble heroism. In reality, self-aware robots are a long way off. Nathan Michael, associate research professor and the director of the Resilient Intelligent Systems Lab at Carnegie Mellon University, argues that generalized AI systems will grow out from today's single-purpose "narrow" AIs. "General AI is representative of this concept of bringing together many different kinds of specialized AI," he explained. AGI isn't so much a singular standalone system -- it's no digital Athena bursting forth from Zeus' forehead -- but rather a threshold of capability derived from a collection of narrow AI's working together, Michael said. He likens it to a baby. When a person is born, they don't possess a proper consciousne...
