A friend recently returned from an interview without a very positive experience. It seems the interviewer forgot something important.
A candidate is also a customer. And so is everyone connected with that candidate.
When you speak or connect with a source (candidate or whomever) you are talking to their network and the network of everyone they are connected to. In the example of my friend, this Fortune 500 company now has a less than stellar image with not only her but everyone she know and touches including:
- Spouse
- Immediate family
- Friends
- Friends of friends
- Former coworkers
- Social media connections
Remember the extent of who you touch. And also remember that the candidate is also interviewing you and your your company.
Relentless
