Could Google Rival LinkedIn with its New Hire Platform
Could Google Rival LinkedIn with its New Hire Platform Firmly established as the primary social platform for modern professionals, LinkedIn has grown from a business networking tool to a powerful superdatabase brimming with prospective clients, customers, and sales leads. Its value to recruiters is immeasurable, and its popularity has led to many commentators labelling LinkedIn as peerless. This could all soon be about to change however, with the announcement that Google is set to launch its own careers platform aptly named âGoogle Hireâ. While the toolâs login page currently seems to be out of operation, the service is predicted to be a tracking system for job listings and applications, with an emphasis on utilising user cloud data to link candidates with the most appropriate job openings. Whether or not this was fuelled by Microsoftâs recent purchase of LinkedIn is another discussion, but with the recent integration of Dynamics 365 with LinkedIn, Google certainly has a lot of ground to make up if it wants to enjoy a healthy share of the recruitment market. The potential of the Microsoft-LinkedIn merger As a result of this recent Microsoft and LinkedIn integration, CRMs now have direct access to nearly 500 million LinkedIn users for the purposes of lead generation and recruitment. The potential of this relatively new partnership is massive, with the capability of also analysing related Outlook data â" this reaches far further than your simple professional network on LinkedIn. The software giant is also planning to make recruitment using Dynamics 365 even easier, with the announcement of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Talent; a specialist recruitment tool for HR professionals. Microsoft seems to be aiming to explore the full potential of their services in the recruitment market, with LinkedIn at the helm. What can Google do to compete? Of course, Google is no stranger to integration itself. If its new hiring platform is integrated with the already successful Gmail and cloud storage services, there is no saying how much pressure that Google Hire could put on LinkedIn. The amount of personal data retained by a Google account, including search history, is massive. Having already established the worldâs most powerful search engine and map database, not to mention its influence in the online shopping market, Google could combine a candidateâs search and purchase habits with their location to find the most suitable job based on their lifestyle. Likewise, it could help filter candidates based on how long they spend procrastinating or which sites they visit. Itâs a level of personalisation that a recruiter could only dream of, but is it a step too far? Selling personal user data The sale of LinkedIn to Microsoft generated a fair share of criticism â" every member of LinkedIn is now readily accessible on the Microsoft Dynamics platform, which is against the spirit of a direct professional networking service. While recruiters have always utilised LinkedIn for recruitment purposes, never has the sale of data been so clear and pronounced. This concern over personal data extends to Googleâs new Hire platform, but the company has already moved to deny claims it will give employers access to private information. [Google Hire] will allow employers to collect candidate applications online, A Google spokesperson clarified. Only information that a candidate voluntarily provides would be passed to a prospective employer as part of their online application. What does this mean for recruiters? This can only be good news for recruiters. While LinkedIn has always been a standalone platform where candidates must manually populate and update their profile, Google is an already-established service that could pull the appropriate existing data through to relieve the burden on the user. In theory, this could lead to a far higher registration rate than that of LinkedIn. This is not to say that LinkedIn will be made redundant â" quite the opposite. It will take something special to compete with a 500-million-strong social network. With a clear competitor now identified, as well as Microsoftâs financing, LinkedIn could be just about to find a second wind. Either way, recruiters will now have two clear professional networks to scout for candidates, instead of just one. It is said that iron sharpens iron, and with Microsoft and Googleâs immense financial backing, this could be one of the most expensive sword fights in history.

How an Effective Employer Brand can Convey Company Culture and Attract Talent
How an Effective Employer Brand can Convey Company Culture and Attract Talent A recent Glassdoor survey revealed that adults in the UK now place company culture above salary when it comes to job satisfaction. Over three in four (77 percent) UK adults would consider a companyâs culture before applying to a job and well over half (57 percent) of UK adults say company culture is more important than salary for job satisfaction. Interestingly, while the majority of UK adults place culture above salary when it comes to job satisfaction, company culture matters significantly more among younger adults. Two-thirds of millennials (18 34-year-olds) place culture above salary when it comes to job satisfaction, compared to just over half (52 percent) of those above 55 years old. A separate study from Universum this week also highlighted the importance of meaning at work: 43% of students said that one of their top career goals is to be dedicated to a cause or to feel that they are serving a greater good. This is exceeded only by job stability and work-life balance in terms of what young people are looking for in their career. In such a competitive job market, itâs important to appreciate that todayâs young adults cannot simply be âboughtâ by generous salaries and perks. They have particularly high standards when it comes to businessesâ values, morals, and ethics and how these are expressed within the workplace. People expect employers to invest in creating an attractive, authentic culture and to behave with integrity. Employees will in turn reward businesses with loyalty; almost two in three adults (63 percent) say their companyâs culture is one of the main reasons for staying in their job. On the flip side, employers would vote with their feet with seven in ten (70 percent) saying they would look for a job elsewhere if their current companyâs culture deteriorates. Coinciding with the survey, Glassdoorâs Economic Research team analyzed millions of reviews shared voluntarily and anonymously by employees on Glassdoor and found that the culture and values of an organization are the strongest predictors of employee satisfaction in the UK. Culture and values of a company are the main factors, accounting for 22 percent of this pie; quality of senior leadership is the second strongest predictor, accounting for 21 percent; and career opportunities is the third strongest predictor, accounting for 18 percent of the total. Where does the employer brand come into this? How and what a business communicates internally and externally will directly impact their brand and peopleâs perceptions of that company as a potential employer. Businesses must ensure all their channels be it website, social media, Glassdoor profile are aligned with the same overarching message and mission and that a consistent, authentic culture comes across. Glassdoorâs report also revealed the importance for employers to be mission-minded. An overwhelming 89 percent of UK adults believe itâs important for an employer to have a clear mission and purpose. Almost eight in 10 (77 percent) adults in the UK would consider a companyâs mission and purpose before applying for a job, whilst their companyâs mission is one of the main reasons that 60 percent of employees stay in their job. A common misperception among many employers today is that pay, perks, benefits and work-life balance are among the top factors driving employee satisfaction in organizations. Glassdoorâs report, combined with an increase in purpose-led causes springing up across the globe, has clearly demonstrated that this is no longer the case. Businesses should instead ensure they have a clear mission and invest in creating an unbeatable culture that is evident at all touchpoints of the employer brand. Those that do will not only attract but also keep hold of talent. About the author: Jo Cresswell, careers analyst at Glassdoor, one of the worldâs largest job and recruiting sites.

Why You Should Attend A Career Fair - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career
Why You Should Attend A Career Fair - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career Career fairs are like âone stop shopsâ at the mall. Attending one of them will give you the opportunity to see the current openings on the market and meet with many company representatives face-to-face. A career fair is a job fair. Itâs a fair for employers to meet and identify potential job seekers. In this case, you are the potential job seekers. At a job fair, there are many different types of employers looking to hire for many different positions. Therefore, I always recommend that job seekers study what companies are coming to the job fair and what positions they are hiring for so you donât waste your time in the fair trying to identify which companies to talk with. If you come to the job fair prepared, you can directly go to the booths of the employers that you are interested in and meet with them face-to-face and describe your interest in the companies and the positions they are hiring for. If you are an active job seeker, attending a career fair has many advantages. The biggest one among all is that you can show your personal brand directly given that you are meeting with company representatives face-to-face. Also, there are companies from many different industries at career fairs so you have the chance of getting inside information from those industries. As a result, maybe you apply for a job in an industry which you never thought of applying. Moreover, career fairs are also good for practicing your interviewing skills. Company representatives may ask you questions right on the spot and expect you to explain your previous experiences or why you are applying for that particular position. Thus, it is better for you to come prepared to answer basic interview questions. Furthermore, you can expand your network as a result of the career fair since you meet with many industry professionals during the event. After the career fair, some companies want you to apply to their job postings through their career websites. Thus, you should take notes during the fair so you know which companies to follow up on and how. Donât forget to collect the business cards of the people you gave your resume. If they run out of their business cards, then ask for their email addresses so you can send thank you emails as a follow-up and remind yourself. This is also a good method of showing that you are still interested in the position.

How to Spot and Avoid the Most Common Freelance Scams CareerMetis.com
How to Spot and Avoid the Most Common Freelance Scams For many businesses, the rising popularity of the gig economyis a game-changer. The workers donât want to be beholden to a faceless, morally ambiguous corporate behemoths.In 2019, 57M Americanschose the freedom that comes with freelancing, and the number is continually growing every year.evalIn the IT industry, where Millenials are well represented, the Harris Poll researchindicates that freelancing is preferable to corporate work, demonstrating the changes taking place in the IT market.The Merits and Dangers of Working with FreelancersThe Merits of Working with Freelancers1) Saving Money Without Sacrificing QualityevalHiring freelancers is almost always cheaper than having an in-house team. Firstly, you donât have to pay for the office rent, vacations and health insurance per worker.Secondly, you are hiring extra help only in very exceptional cases when you have big seasonal projects or something to be done out of your capabilities. Therefore, you pay only accordingly to work do ne.Thirdly, you do not have to invest money in developing the needed skills. You can simply hire someone who can do whatever you need.2) Easy Accessibility As the only thing required thing to communicate with a freelancer is the internet, you can easily reach the freelancer anytime despite the time of day or day of the week.If youâve got something to be done on Friday evening, you donât have to wait till Monday morning. Just find someone online.3) High Range of SkillsevalOn freelance platforms, you can find specialists in almost any sphere from all around the world, with a wide diversity of skills and experiences proposed. Depending on your preferences, you can hire someone for a more extended project or just for a small task.You can narrow down your search to a specific skill, or tool, or region, or age, or nationality â" no limits at all!4) Responsibility Freelancers care about their reputation a lot. One bad comment can ruin an impression from an excellent profile with a vas t portfolio. That is why while in-house workers can always count on their backup, freelancers take responsibility for their work, whether it is done or not.If it is done, they get paid, and everyone is happy. If not, theyâll have to put a lot of effort to get back on track. The Dangers of Working with Freelancers1) ConfidentialityevalevalSome information requires extra secrecy. The number one concern of any business is to keep it safe. That is why it is of high importance to choose the right person to work with, especially if you decided to hire a freelancer. 2) Communication DifficultiesThe study by Codementor.ioshows that hiring freelancers from Eastern Europe or Asia is almost twice cheaper, even though they are as professional as their USA colleagues.However, not all the abroad contractors speak proper English. Besides, they may have different working cultures, corporate ethics, and way of thinking in general. As a result, these differences may cause misunderstandings and conf licts during the working process.3) Trustworthiness Unfortunately, old-fashioned freelance platforms are still not entirely successful in protecting clients from scammers. They steal otherâs people accounts, hijack good portfolios take the money and never finish the project, send plagiarised works, and so on.Luckily, with the rising popularity of the new type of freelance platforms, who are checking all the candidates through a multi-layered vetting procedure, the process of finding freelancers became more simplified and secured.How Does a Common Freelance Scam Scenario Look Like?Unfortunately, together with all the perks of hiring freelancers, unpleasant situations do occur. To mitigate the chances of losing money, time and reputation, companies thinking of hiring freelancers should be aware of the risks involved. Here are some typical cases, which are based on true storiesScenario 1: Hijacked Portfolio Fake TestimonialsBen, 27 yrs old â" Looking for a Part-time Developer to Ge t Extra Help with the Startup: âAfter days of searching, I finally found the perfect candidate! A great portfolio and several excellent testimonials convinced me that he was the right one to complete the job. Although the price was a little more than I expected, I hired him. Immediately after the money was sent, he stopped replying to my messages. After a few days, his account was deleted. Along with my money, he had disappeared.âWhat Happened?Very often, scammers find high-quality portfolios on platforms like Behance and link them to fake accounts. Usually, these kinds of profiles have no credible information about the freelancer or even no information at all. Itâs a common practice when the scammers create fake clientâs accounts to leave positive testimonials to convince the real clients to trust them.Scenario 2: Mimicking Top FreelancersevalDavid, 45 yrs old â" Looking for a Full-time Developer.âMy team was working on a very important project with a short deadline. We could not finish everything on time, so we decided to hire a high-quality freelancer, who could help us to catch up. We found a top freelancer on one of the platforms. Fortunately, he agreed to start right away. We arranged a Skype call, where he was polite and professional. His nickname was Sc0tt.Daniels. A couple of days later, a freelancer named Scott Daniels, contacted us on Skype, asking whether the project was still going ahead. We couldnât understand what was going on until we saw the small difference in the nickname! Sc0tt.Daniels was a scammer! We nearly lost a lot of money and, even worse, a very important client! Luckily, the real freelancer contacted us just in time.âWhat Happened?In this case, a scammer stole a trustworthy freelancerâs name. He substituted only one element of the nickname What Happened?Plagiarising content is a widespread scam, but it can be avoided by using one of the many plagiarism-checkers which are available online. Before paying for finished work, it is essential to check its uniqueness on services such as Turnitin or Quetext. Completing a shoddy quality work or sharing the account with other freelancers, as it was in the story, is also considered as a scam.Scenario 4: BlackmailingLisa, 36 yrs old â" Looking for a Designer to Create the Website UIâHas anyone faced blackmailing while using a freelance platform? It happened to me. Twice. By the same guy. I contacted a designer on a freelance platform, and we agreed on a turnkey order. After the first deadline, I saw the preview, which was good. But the person told me that he cannot finish the whole website within the deadline because itâs too much work, but if Iâd pay more, he would do it on time. Because I desperately needed it to be done by the due date, I agreed. After the second deadline, I received an email from the freelancer, saying that he got all the data on the website, and if I donât pay $1500, Iâll never get my website back. This cheater scammed me two times and stole so much money!âWhat Happened?Blackmailing is not just a scam, it is a crime. Stealing someoneâs intellectual property should be punished. However, due to the anonymity of freelancing platforms, it is almost impossible to do. If a freelancer is asking you for more money, think twice if you can actually trust this person.How to Recognize a Scam? a) Full Prepayment and Offsite PaymentsThe main aim of any scam is to make you pay. Therefore, the number one sign of a scam is when someone demands the full prepayment. Professional freelancers generally prefer milestone payments with a partial sum upfront. These types of transactions are convenient for freelancers as well because this is the only guarantee that their job is going to be paid. However, never send any money directly to the freelancerâs personal accounts on Paypal, Skrill, Bitcoin, etc. Anyone asking you to do that should be immediately red-flagged.b) Empty Account and Absence of Credible DataA profile with no info does not necessarily mean a scammer. Sometimes, a well-experienced developer just embarking on his freelance career may not have any recommendations or freshly finished projects. But, for sure, only scammers will use fake photos, unverified email addresses, or phone numbers. A real profile will always include at least some information, which proves the person is trustworthy.c) Fake Personal Info Always stay away from the profiles with suspicious names like John Snow, Abraham Lincoln, John Dou, and so on. A scammer always wants to remain anonymous. Very rarely, they would use their real names.d) Suspicious Behavior Scammers can also be identified in a simple conversation. They will try to hurry you up with the payment, wonât ask you any questions regarding the project, and most probably, right after you pay, they will ghost you.How to Avoid Scams?a) Use Only Milestone Payments Always pay respect to the work done by the freelancer. Proceed with further payments only af ter you see the progress which youâve agreed upon. Platforms such as Due.com and Escrow.com are perfect for proceeding with milestone payments.b) Stick with the Freelancing PlatformInsist that all communications with and payments to the freelancer only take place via a reputable freelancing platform. Avoid all temptations and politely turn down all requests to leave the platform. While communicating over Skype may be more accessible, it is also riskier.c) Never Share any Personal Info Some fake freelancing platforms can ask for your ID, login information, or even credit card number because they need to âverify your identity.â Never do this, remember to protect your personal data. d) Always Communicate Directly with the FreelancerRegular communication with the freelancer is essential. This is the only way to control the progress and ensure that all the requirements are being followed. e) Do all the Background ChecksBe curious and thoroughly check the portfolio, including all th e references, social media, and contact information. If possible, try to reach previous clients, to make sure that your project is in the right hands.Can I Trust Any Freelance Platforms? While traditional freelance platforms remain widely popular, better alternatives exist in the form of the new-generation platforms.They are preferable because:Freelancers specialize only in one or several professions;These platforms only work with vetted professionals;They use non-bidding systems;They check every contractor before assigning him or her to any project;They include matching algorithms that allow you to proceed with the best-suited professional chosen by platformsâ managers.If you are searching for developers, try Lemon.ioor Toptal.com; if you need designers, look on 99designs.com; copywriters could be found on Clearvoice.com.If you want to minimize your chance of being scammed and you donât have time to check the freelancerâs profile procedure on your own, just simply try one of the freelance platforms mentioned above.Most of these platforms arenon-bidding ones, which simplifies the hiring procedure and is more secure.If you still want to do a search by yourself, follow a three-step guideline.The first stepâ"Look for the red flags, such as fill prepayment requests, empty profiles, fake info, fraud behavior.The second step â"Do the background checks on the contractor, communicate directly with the freelancer and never leave the platform, especially while doing prepayments.The third step â" Enjoy the perks of hiring freelancers!Image Source â" Lemon.io
