    HR: We lost the new hire today.

    CEO: What happened?

    HR: He resigned after his first week.

    CEO: That makes no sense. We just gave him a job offer after a long layoff spell.

    HR: Yes, but being jobless wasn't the issue.

    HR: We lost the new hire today.

    CEO: What happened?

    HR: He resigned after his first week.

    CEO: That makes no sense. We just gave him a job offer after a long layoff spell.

    HR: Yes, but being jobless wasn't the issue.

    CEO: Then what was?

    HR: He said the offer was 20% below the market rate.

    CEO: He was out of work and can't dictate terms.

    HR: That's true.

    CEO: Then why did he accept the offer only to resign days later?

    HR: He accepted the offer but already had another interview lined up. A week later, he called to say he'd accepted a different offer that matched his worth.

    CEO: That is unprofessional and unacceptable.

    HR: The only option we have is to readvertise the position.

    CEO: No, I'll match their offer.

    HR: It's too late. The damage is already done.

    CEO: Why?

    HR: He's already working.

    CEO: We offered him a job when he had been laid off, and his gratitude is to resign and go where he's paid more? Very unprofessional still.

    HR: We took advantage of him because he was laid off and unemployed and offered him below market rate. This is also unprofessional and unacceptable

    CEO: So what are you saying?

    HR: Don't exploit a candidate's situation. It never ends well.

    He applied for the third time, and I called him for an interview.

    And guess what? We offered him a role right after the interview.

    Now, a year later, he has become the Team Leader and is performing excellently.

    The lesson I learned from this: do not always judge a person solely based on their CV.

    Sometimes, they are more than that one-page profile.

    During an interview, I asked a candidate who was just starting his career:

    "Do you have any questions for us?"

    During an interview, I asked a candidate who was just starting his career:

    "Do you have any questions for us?"

    He replied:

    "What opportunities are available for growth in this role?"

    I smiled.

    Why?

    Because even at the beginning of his career, he wasn't just thinking about getting a job or earning a big salary.

    He was thinking long-term.

    He was looking for a place to learn, grow, and build a career.

    Sometimes, the questions candidates ask tell you more about them than their answers ever will.

    This is a reminder for you. If you are starting your career, ask questions that show interest in the job and willingness to grow long-term.  less

    So , He applied for the third time and finally resume got shortlisted then HR called him for an interview.

    And guess what?

    Company offered him a role right after the interview.

    He joined company in low package just because he was trying for this company since long.

    Now, over a year later, he has left that company, finally now he is in a leadership position and one of the top billers.

    The lesson I learned from this: do not always judge a person solely based on their CV.

    Sometimes, they are more than that two page profile.

    Give a chance to candidates - they have energy and ideas more than you can think of.

    STOP NEGOTIATING SALARIES WITH CANDIDATES WHEN YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A BUDGET.

    Yesterday, I offered a candidate 40% raise over his last salary after a year's gap.

    When I asked about his expectations, he mentioned he would be okay with the same salary as his last one, as he had been out of work for a year due to health reasons.

    I didn’t say anything at that moment because I knew we had a budget to offer him a raise if he got selected.

    Fast forward: he cleared all interviews, and I offered him. He almost had tears in his eyes and shared that many told him he shouldn’t expect a hike after a career gap.

    Please don't take advantage of someone's vulnerable situation.🙏
    Please don't undervalue candidates just because they need a job. 🙏  less

    🚨 YOUR CV IS NOT GETTING REJECTED... IT'S GETTING IGNORED.
    Most job seekers spend hours applying to jobs but only minutes on their CV.

    The harsh reality?
    ❌ Recruiters spend just a few seconds scanning a CV.
    ❌ Generic resumes rarely make it to the interview stage.
    ❌ One small mistake can cost you a life-changing opportunity.

    Before you hit "Apply" on your next job application, ask yourself:
    👉 Does your CV clearly showcase your value?
    👉 Is it ATS-friendly?
    👉 Does it highlight achievements instead of responsibilities?
    👉 Would YOU hire yourself after reading it?

    📄 Not sure if your CV is interview-ready?

    Drop "CV" in the comments, and I will share practical tips to help you improve your resume and increase your chances of getting shortlisted.  less

    When tailoring your CV for a specific role, mirror the language from the job description. It helps recruiters see you as a perfect fit.

    I once had a candidate list 'proficient in Microsoft Office' as their only skill. That's like saying 'I can breathe.' Your CV should shout what sets you apart, not what everyone else has.

    Struggling to get callbacks? Your CV might be missing one key thing: results, not just duties. Instead of 'Responsible for sales,' say 'Increased sales by 30% in six months.' Recruiters love numbers. They prove impact.

    I've reviewed hundreds of CVs this month, and the biggest mistake? Using a one-size-fits-all template. Tailor your CV to the job description. Highlight the skills and experience that match. It makes a world of difference.
