  • Negative impacts both on the company and the candidate
  • Client impact because of supplier turnover - Reputation, Synergy, Relationships
  • Impact of job changing on a resume
  • It is a small world.  Are you ready for Karma to kick you in the butt?
  • Costs affiliated with hiring someone that leaves after 6 months
  • Covid19 has fanned the flames and how it comes around due to layoffs, increased chances of crossing paths
  • Red Flags during an interview - what we look for
  • Going Dark or Ghosting, unresponsiveness loses interest

  • Bringing KPIs and Metrics to your response to spin it positively
  • What skills do you have that works well for this position? - you better know the role
  • Remember the STAR method
  • In-Person / Zoom Interview Tragedies
  • Take the time to prepare when you are on camera, not just dress, but everything around you including reflections in windows
  • Be careful how you react to distractions when on a zoom call

  • Eye contact can sometimes indicate a lack of interest or lying
  • Be aware that sometimes lack of eye contact can be other things
