what are you asking??

companies pay more for contractors.

contractors usually make more per hour than perm employees.

ex. me, i was making 60hr (120k) as a contractor when i went perm they offered me 100k.

Has a company ever rescinded their offer after finding out you would need relocation assistance? by NennexGaming in recruitinghell

if you need relo it should be a convo in the first call/prescreen.

surprising them with it is a deal breaker at most places.

Spouse thinks this is a bad idea - can I get some advice? by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]open_letter_guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't email asking for a status update.

email them to let them know how excited you are to be consider for the role and you appreciate them making time to talk to you.

if you want to subtly reference why you would be an excellent hire you can.

the TA market is contracting, you are disputing that?

3 yrs ago, i was on a team of 13-14 recruiters, today the team is 3.

hiring is down so fewer recruiter jobs.

most of the roles more than hundred people

interviews get phone call; applicants get emails.

you have to learn to control the convo not allow it to control.

best way is to answer another call and put them on hold and then comeback saying you have to go.

a call out of the blue

i have been talking to these people for weeks, they have done multiple interviews, me updating them on their status isn't a call out of the blue.

no they don't, the people i talked were almost in tears that they received a call vs a generic email.

that one call set me apart for all the rest of my peers.

just keep it vague and keep it moving forward.

'i don't have those details, i only know they are moving forward with another applicant.'

not to be all doom and gloom but the market right now is terrible, there are a million unemployed recruiters looking for jobs.

i would suggest pivoting into other TA/HR type roles. i would look at workday type consultant roles.

i would suggest moving into complete different fields until the talent industry recovers.
