For a
recruiter finding a right candidate with necessary skills to do a particular
job can feel like discovering a giant emerald. However, is this search that
difficult...? In today’s era where competition is growing at a rapid pace, is
finding a right fit has become a major challenge? We checked with some of the
industry experts to throw some light on this issue and based on their feedback,
have derived on following FOUR major factors, which they consider while hiring
a candidate:
1.
Fundamentals – Most Industry experts strongly believe if a candidate is good
with his fundamental knowledge – it will be easier for him to channelize any
major or minor tasks. A fundamentally strong candidate will take less time to
deliver the results irrespective of complex nature of a problem.
2. Problem
Solving – Logical thinking and Problem Solving skills are major “Go to” for
recruiters. Companies like Google believe if a person has an ability to do
problem solving they will definitely be able to absorb new things and will be
far ahead of their competitors.
3.
Communication Skills – Hiring Managers are looking for candidates with ability
to communicate effectively with clients, colleagues at all levels. Weather it is
written or verbal; they both play a critical part in selection.
4.
Integrity – Subject knowledge is one thing and character build up is another.
Our value system also plays a critical role in selection. A person with high
level of integrity towards his job is always well regarded.
