Questions to Ask When Creating Job Alerts in TE
This week in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog, I’ll be addressing the next factor for achieving success within Top Echelon’s recruiter network as an exporter. That factor is creating Job Alerts properly.
With that being said, the first question you should ask yourself in regards to this topic is, “Do I check the Job Alerts?” If you don’t, then they won’t be of much use to you.
The second question you should ask is, “Have I set up my Job Alerts properly, to bring me the desired results?”
The rule of thumb is simplicity. With that in mind, below are some recommended fields to use:
- Search name (required)
- A FEW keywords or a simple Boolean string
- Major discipline codes
The power in Top Echelon Job Alerts
However, it doesn’t stop there. Neither do the questions, either, because below are yet more questions you should ask yourself:
1. What are my specialties?
2. What are my strengths?
3. What types of candidates do I have in my database?
Alerts can be a powerful tool for members of Top Echelon Network.
For some recruiters, they’re very powerful. These recruiters use them extensively and make split placements every single year because of them.
If you’re not maximizing the power of Job Alerts on your own recruiting desk, then follow the tips listed above. Not only that, but the Top Echelon Help Center is also filled with articles about this topic.
In fact, here is a comprehensive Help Center article about setting up Network Job Alerts.
