Bhavini N Khatri Hi Ruchi. Its an honour to be connected with someone so well known in the Talent fraternity. What would you be your advise , take, experience and opinion to and for Recruiters and Recruitment Leads who handle senior level roles. Job change or skill, Relevant exp or gud pedigree and so on should be the criteria while screening, selecting and recruiting. Request your perspective. Regards Bhavini Khatri.
Ruchi Bhatia Bhavini N Khatri Thank you for your kind words. For senior roles, other than assessing for basic hygeine factors , assess for Cultural Fit. If the senior person is not a culture fit, no matter how talented he / she is , will not be able to perform in your organization. I would recommend you to read a book – Dont Hire the Best by Abhjit Bhaduri to learn more. Anjali Gulati
Bhavini N Khatri Its subjective to define cultural fit with limited interaction with prospective candidates.I will surely read the book recommended. Appreciate your revert. Regards Bhavini
