Typically, towards the end of the interview, the candidate has a chance to ask questions.

When it comes to customer service training, the majority of businesses place a strong emphasis on developing so-called “hard skills”. After all, these are the specific technical skills that are required to perform a particular customer service role, and these are the skills that are less likely to have been worked on by recruits already. However, it is important to remember that soft skills, which are less job-specific, can and should also be developed.

As a recruiter, you’ve heard the term “culture fit” a lot (to say the least). It’s a term that’s been thrown around for years and the majority of companies put a big emphasis on assessing if a candidate is a cultural fit before making an offer. But, according to Pat Wadors , LinkedIn’s Head of HR, the term is “dangerous.” Why? Because assessing for culture fit can often lead to a “hire like me” mentality.

Corporate recruiting departments lack financial transparency and accountability needed to align agency hiring performance with authorized incentives. In some cases, it's designed that way, making "kickbacks" a sad yet common (and all too casual) practice resulting in unauthorized incentives and unsanctioned, preferential treatment.
