When it comes to hiring a designer, work samples speak louder than resumes. You don’t just want a candidate to tell you what they can do - you want them to show you what they’re capable of producing. A resume often isn’t indicative of a creative candidate’s potential job performance, and it could be a mistake to ask for one as the first step of your designer recruitment process.

After what must have been some protracted wranglings and negotiations the news finally broke this week that Finite had acquired well-known NZ IT recruitment firm NineTwenty.

It seems to me that interviewing skills are all over the table. Sometimes I hear that candidates “don’t interview well,” and I’m sure that’s true. However, I’ve also been through some interviews where it could be fairly said that the INTERVIEWER didn’t interview well either! Since interviews are such a critical component of the hiring process, everyone could stand to improve their interviewing skills – candidates, clients, and recruiters alike.

These type of saying are typically applied to sports, however they can—and should—be applied to any type of group of people working together.
