Elchemie is a specialist recruitment agency in the technical and scientific field. Our consultants are recruited from industry are therefore able to: understand the employers technical job specification. We recruit for client companies in the following industries: Chemical and Allied. Jobseekers we work with and whose details we keep on our database. if you need somebody with 10 years experience in production management in the decorative paint industry, who has managed teams of at least 100 people, ask for it in so many words. if you need somebody who has sold prop shafts to the mining industry for trucks and heavy equipment, specify that, you don’t want all the candidates who have ever sold a prop shaft for a passenger vehicle to apply. incorrect job descriptions: many job descriptions make the job look more desirable, mundane or not so nice duties are suppressed or not even mentioned, after a few months the new employee often leaves because the position is nothing like the job description, therefore describe the job fully, with warts and all, much cheaper than training another new employee. d. unless you apply for any type of artistic position, do not insert pretty pictures. g. check with the norm is for the country that you sending your CV to and for the type of position that you are applying for, in the USA they want extremely short CVS, in South Africa a CV that is 3 to 4 pages long is quite acceptable. Incorrect information on CV a. make absolutely certain that all information on your CV is correct. d. provide full details about referees, never try and pretend your good buddy at the company where you were dismissed was actually your manager to get a good reference, rather be honest about such mishaps. Making a few simple changes to the way you handle email will help you improve focus, save time, and communicate more effectively. Employers are now frequently using performance based interview questions and it is important that you are well equipped in the interview. Ask the interviewer about critical challenges involved in the job you are being interviewed for. The recruitment process is a long process and the following tips will help in employing the very best candidates for your company. Do background checks If you are looking for good employees the employment process needs to be done with a positive attitude and an open mind. That is a lot of work for me, which is wasted time. Do not be late or too early for the interview: make sure you allow ample time, taking traffic into account to arrive on time for the interview. Make sure you prepare for the interview: make yourself familiar with the job specification and the company. In the interview focus on what you can do for the company not what they can do for you: explain how you can add value to the position you applied for and to the company using examples from your experience. Do not ask about salary, benefits, working hours, perks etc in the first interview: this is usually addressed in a second interview, but be prepared just in case the interviewer does ask the question. Although most applications are now sent online, following up with a printed resume on colored paper is rarely a good idea. Will you be working for a forward-thinking or a plod-along company? If the company is not innovative and creative with its competitors, it probably won’t be around for long.
