Brigette Hyacinth,The Future of Leadership: Rise of Automation, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence/Linked In Dear Recruiters and Hiring Managers, if you have interviewed 30-50 people for a job opening and can’t find someone to fill the position. Start looking in the mirror. It’s not because there’s a lack of talent out there. It’s because you’ve created a set of search parameters that are unrealistic. I have read some job adverts and thought who could possibly live up to these expectations? Purple unicorns do not exist! NEWSFLASH!* – There is no “perfect” candidate. If you have someone with the right attitude and skill set to do the job, and they fit in with the team — HIRE them. There are so many qualified individuals still job searching. Yet I see the same jobs being re-posted over and over again, being left vacant for months. Who took a chance on you? Maybe it’s time you a took chance on someone. Agree?
