The Job Interview Experience Bleav Life & Leisure

Kyle Samuels, Founder and CEO of Creative Talent Endeavors, shares his insights on how to improve the hiring process for both sides.

Fit is Key: Both a company's culture and the role's requirements need to be a good fit for the candidate. Recruiters should screen for fit during the interview process.
Applying Strategically: Don't apply to every job you see. Tailor your resume and cover letter to the specific role and company.
Following Up: A well-crafted follow-up email to the recruiter after applying can increase your chances of getting noticed.
Networking Matters: Building relationships with people in your field can lead to job opportunities that aren't publicly advertised.
Focusing on the Future: Consider the skills that will be in demand in the coming years when choosing a new job.
Open to Work on LinkedIn: There are pros and cons to using the "Open to Work" feature on LinkedIn. It depends on your individual situation and industry.
