Executive Spotlight: Sara Jensen, IES Every quarter, Recruiter.com Magazine's "Executive Spotlight" features top executives, HR professionals, recruiters, and business leaders sharing their insights on hiring, management, and best recruiting practices. This Quarter's Spotlight: Sara Jensen, VP of Business Development for Innovative Employee Solutions Founded in 1974, Innovative Employee Solutions (IES) is a leading nationwide employer of record specializing in payrolling and contractor management services for today's contingent workforce. IES is one of San Diego's largest women-owned businesses, and it has been named one of the city's "Best Places to Work" for 10 years in a row. Jensen credits "our people, our culture, and our integrity" as the reasons why IES has been able to achieve and maintain such impressive levels of success. "We hire rock star talent, and we care deeply about their personal and professional development," she says. "We invest in our staff members and pay for them to get industry certifications, participate in leadership development groups, and pursue continued education. This plays into our overall philosophy of hiring great people; treating them with respect; and allowing them to do their best work in an environment of encouragement, teamwork, and fun. We believe that a happy staff equals happy clients." What do you love most about your job? There are many things that I love about my job — it's hard to pick just one! I love that every day is different. Some days, I am completely focused on working with our clients and prospects and developing solutions to meet their needs. Other days, I am coaching and supporting my team and helping them achieve their goals. And other days, I have my strategic hat on and am brainstorming with our leadership new service lines or opportunities to stay competitive in the market. What is your proudest professional moment? One moment that stands out happened after finishing a big presentation to a current client in which we had to recompete to offer our services. It was a highly competitive bid process, and the client was one of our most important from a relationship and a financial perspective, so there was a lot riding on winning the business. As the point person, I took the lead on working with our leadership team to prepare a killer presentation that addressed all of the client's pain points and consistently drove home the value we could provide to the company, the manager, and the contingent workers. We hit the presentation out of the park! I remember being in the cab on the way back to our hotel Recruiter.com Magazine

with my team members and feeling so proud of our team for doing such a great job representing IES. I also felt so proud to work for such a great company that made it easy for us to share the impressive ways we partner with our clients. And we ended up winning the business!

Describe your ideal team. What kind of people are on it? What work are you doing? What is your role? My ideal team is one that is diverse and has different personalities that complement one another. I am great at building relationships, but analytics and data are not my strong suit, so I enjoy working with others who excel in those areas so we can utilize one another's strengths for the betterment of the group. My ideal team would also include people who enjoy collaborating, are forward-thinking, and are always looking for ways to continue to grow both personally and professionally. What is your must-follow hiring rule? My must-follow hiring rule is to find people who love to learn and are go-getters. Initiative goes a long way in this industry, and I love it when people jump right in to learn as they go. Fitting into the company culture is a huge must as well. If you had to sum up your entire career to this point in one quote, what would it be? One step back, two steps forward.

How to Win Over Candidates via Email
Entelo crunched the data to identify the dos and don'ts of candidate email outreach Jon Bischke
T
he average person receives 88 emails per day. It's a true testament to your writing skills if, after sifting through the barrage of sales pitches, invitations, and social media notifications, a candidate is actually moved to respond to your outreach.
However, it can be difficult to understand what makes one outreach better than any other. Without the data necessary to analyze what works and what doesn't, measuring email success can feel quite arbitrary. To help recruiters replicate their successes and avoid radio silence, Entelo crunched the numbers and turned email outreach into a science. Using millions of recruiting emails and billions of data points within the Entelo platform, our team set out to determine which components of outreach emails yield responses and which don't. Looking at the historical data, we find outreach emails that include none of the following don'ts and at least one of the dos garnered around 30 percent higher reply rates on average than typical emails: Recruiter.com Magazine
6
Email Outreach Dos
Email Outreach Don'ts
Do have your hiring manager reach out: Emails sent on behalf of hiring managers are 1.17 times as likely to receive a reply than those sent by a recruiter. Opening with "Nice to meet you" builds a connection with the candidate right off the bat. Make it clear that this email is coming from someone with authority by using phrases like "I lead" or "I run" right in the first sentence.
Don't put the job description in the body of the email: Emails that even include the phrase "job requirements" have 80 percent lower reply rates than average. Pasting an entire job description into an email is lazy, and it shows the candidate you're likely cutting and pasting the same information over and over and sending it to other people as well. Not only is this approach a waste of time on your part, it's a clear sign to the candidate that they are not special and you don't value their time. Instead, focus your email outreach on the candidate's relevant qualifications and what you like about them.
Do throw in a few compliments: Using words like "impressed" or "great fit" increase your reply rate and help to build rapport with the candidate. However, try to avoid clichĂŠs. Phrases like "real impact," "potential fit," and "change the world" all decrease reply rates because they can feel a bit phony. Candidates can tell when you're being inauthentic, so use complimentary language appropriately and stay away from the generic phrases. Do tout your company health: The financial health of your company matters. Include links to press coverage about your company's financial achievements, and be sure to include messaging about your latest funding, current valuation, or wins from the latest earnings call. This tactic can be particularly helpful when you are trying to win over someone from a company that offers a higher salary than you do, because it will show that your organization has more growth potential. Do set up time to talk: Interestingly, the qualifiers you use to arrange next steps make a statistically significant difference. Phrases like "any interest," "if you're interested," and "open to" all drive positive reply rates. Conversely, qualifiers like "if interested," "if you are," or "interested in" bring reply rates down. Try not to be too aggressive by asking to talk tomorrow. Instead, be more flexible by asking to talk at some point during the week. This will give the candidate more time to reply and increase reply rates overall.
Don't ask for a resume: Starting out with an assignment isn't a great way to build rapport. If you're reaching out to a passive candidate, it's because you've already done a bit of research on who that person is. Asking them to give you more information can set the wrong tone. In fact, it will cut their likelihood of replying in half. Don't jump the gun on salary and work/ life balance: In his famous TED Talk, Simon Sinek encourages entrepreneurs to begin by explaining their motivations before they explain their products. Recruiters should follow this philosophy, too. Salary and work/life balance are important factors, but mentioning them up front actually drives down reply rates. Instead, share information about your company mission and values to help candidates understand your workforce and culture. Don't ask for referrals: You wouldn't make a new friend and immediately ask to be introduced to their other friends, so don't put candidates on the spot that way either. Build a strong rapport with an individual, and if they elect to introduce you to someone from their network, it means you've fostered trust. Don't force it. In fact, asking candidates if they know anyone can decrease reply rates by 48 percent.
If at First You Don't Succeed, Try, Try Again As with marketing emails, sending a follow-up message is one of the best things you can do to boost your reply rates. Recruiters who send follow-ups typically receive 50 percent more responses than those who don't. — This can be a lot to remember for each outreach email you send, but it’s important to keep these nuances in mind because they matter. To help your outreach emails stand out amid all the noise and garner a 30 percent higher response rate, consider adopting a recruiting automation tool that takes the guesswork out of the process and helps you write higher-quality emails to candidates. Approaching the candidate journey with the right combination of predictive data and human intuition is the best way to stay competitive in today's fierce talent landscape.

Make One More Placement per Month How recruiters can exercise more influence over the hiring process — and earn more income as a result
R
Michael R. Neece
ecruiting is labor-intensive and high risk. Recruiters lead employers and candidates through a hiring path to get the best talent hired as efficiently as possible.
Your income is limited by your influence along the hiring path. This article shows you how to improve your business by enhancing your influence during the high-risk stages of recruiting. Before becoming a recruiter, I was an engineer and an electronics factory manager. My jobs required finding new ways to produce more in less time, with lower costs, at the highest quality. I was a process geek, passionate about making things faster and better for people. When I became a recruiter, I realized recruiting is a process where I can make money by coordinating employers and candidates along the path from job order to placement. There are many ingredients in a recruiting process, but the most precious resources we have are our influence and control. The big question is: How do we gain more influence to get more candidates hired faster? Recruiting Is Like Driving
When driving a car, we use GPS to find and navigate along the best route. In our recruiting journey, we navigate from a town called "Job Order" to a destination called "Placement." To arrive successfully, we must know the path and control whatever we can along the way. Every placement travels along a similar road through a more or less standard sequence of steps. Apps and outsourcing help us work through steps like sourcing, screening, tracking, and invoicing — but what else can we do to get more control? Make a Map Before taking a road trip, you might map out your trip to find the best route. Let's do the same thing to improve our recruiting business. Here is a recruiting road map that probably looks a lot like your typical recruiting process:
9
Recruiter.com Magazine
Of course, this map does not tell the whole story. There are many tasks within each step along the road from job order to placement. The next chart lists some of the many details involved at each step of the journey:
I'm certain you'll agree that the more involved we are at each step, the greater our influence to drive the process toward our goals of • Filling a key position for the employer • Improving the career of our candidate • Earning a fee This final chart illustrates the financial risk and recruiter participation for each step of the recruiting process:
Recruiter.com Magazine
10
The chart on the preceding page illustrates what every recruiter already knows: At the third stage of the hiring process — the interview step — our financial risk is highest, but we have the lowest participation and influence over the outcome. The interview is also a high-risk scenario for the employer and the candidate. Most interviewers and candidates alike are unskilled at interviews, a fact which makes negative outcomes more likely — all while your financial risk is at its highest. To promote interview success, most recruiters prep their candidates with information about the company, the position, and the interviewers. Is there more that can be done to affect the interview outcome in a positive way? Finding Your Secret Sauce If you want to see more of your candidates get offers more frequently, do the following: 1. Research Interview Prep Techniques: Most recruiters underestimate the influence they can have on employer-candidate interviews. Many recruiters do little more than instruct candidates on logistics like scheduling and directions to the office. Recruiters also falsely assume senior-level candidates are in need of less interview advice. In reality, I've found that the more senior a candidate, the more they value interview advice. 2. Create Two Prep Scripts: Using the prep techniques you've researched, write two different interview prep scripts. Parts of the script will be the same in both versions, while other parts of each script will be unique. Using two different prepping methods allows you to conduct A/B testing that will help you identify which prep method gets better results. 3. Track and Compare Results: Gather and analyze feedback from the candidates and interviewers. Identify which prepping method gets better results — i.e., which method leads to more positive feedback and more offers. Then, create a third prepping script that improves on the method even further. Rinse and repeat. Over time, you will discover which methods work best to generate offers more frequently. When I was leading a top-revenue-producing recruiting team of six, this is what we did. We analyzed different prepping methods for 5,000 job interviews and found what worked best. This helped us become one of the top-performing teams in the country for a nationwide firm.

5 Quick Ways to Boost Your Credibility on LinkedIn Julie Mason
W
hether you are applying for a new job, stepping into a management position, trying to land a new client, searching for candidates, or running your own business, your credibility is key to your success.
the top of your profile, representing an opportunity to showcase the value you can bring to a business, customer, or candidate. Write about how you can benefit interested parties as either an employee or a service provider.
Credibility is that intangible state of being seen by others to be trustworthy and reliable, and it comes from the combination of competence with an underpinning layer of expert knowledge. Credibility does not happen overnight — it is grown in the minds of those who watch you over time, including your manager, your team, your clients, your candidates, and other stakeholders.
In your experience section, provide a full description of your current and past roles — not just the job titles. Studies have shown that profiles featuring at least five roles in the experience section are viewed as more credible.
Having said that, there are five quick ways to boost your credibility on LinkedIn: 1. First Impressions Count The first thing people look at when viewing your profile is your photo. By nature, we gravitate toward people who seem nonthreatening and friendly, so use a professional head-and-shoulders photo featuring a relaxed, happy expression and a non-distracting background. Studies show that having a profile photo increases profile views 21 times and results in nine times more invitations to connect. Utilize the banner space behind your profile picture by inserting a relevant image or using it to promote a value proposition. Canva.com has some great LinkedIn banner templates that can help even the most creatively challenged make eye-catching headers for their profiles. 2. Be an All-Star Complete all sections of your profile, especially your summary, experience, and skills sections. Your summary occupies a prime position at Recruiter.com Magazine
3. Recommendations Raise the Bar While listing your skills will help optimize your profile for LinkedIn search and generate endorsements from other members, written recommendations will raise your credibility enormously. Recommendations are more personal than endorsements, so when you ask one of your connections to recommend you — be it a past employer, client, or colleague — it’s a great idea to explain what your ultimate goal is and what you would like from the recommendation. Here’s an example: Hey Joe, I was wondering if I could ask a huge favor of you. I’m applying for a new role as a business development manager, and I was wondering if you could provide a recommendation for me for the work I did at XYZ Company, specifically around my sales results in consistently achieving set targets. I would be extremely grateful for your assistance with this. However, if you don’t feel comfortable in doing so, that’s okay. I won’t be offended. Cheers, Julie 12
4. Show Off Your Success LinkedIn’s accomplishments section is the perfect place to showcase the work you are most proud of, along with your career milestones. This is the perfect spot to share any awards you have received, books and publications you have written or contributed to, special projects, and even other languages you may speak.
Be aware of what you like and comment on in LinkedIn’s newsfeed. Recently, I was viewing the profile of someone who had reached out to connect with me. Their profile looked professional and credible until I saw their recent activity section and noted that they had liked some, let’s say, less-than-professional posts. Immediately, their credibility dropped like a stone, and I ended up declining their invitation to connect.
5. Demonstrate Your Knowledge and Expertise
—
Really want to boost your credibility? Demonstrate your knowledge and thought-leadership by consistently posting quality content in your newsfeed and publishing articles directly to your LinkedIn profile. Writing articles on LinkedIn will enhance your credibility. Considering that Google recognizes LinkedIn as an authoritative domain and ranks LinkedIn articles in its search results, we’re talking about a big credibility bonus.
Your achievements and the fantastic service you may have provided in the past won’t count for much to the person viewing your profile if you haven’t taken steps to communicate your value properly on your LinkedIn profile. Remember that trust is built on credibility, and people hire and do business with people they know, like, and trust.

he recruiting and staffing industry has been having a pretty good go of it in the last few years.

Vendorpass in Action: A Case Study In order to compete with top industry players, staffing firm Staffing Connection, Inc., needed a broader, more robust back-office support team. When its current supplier wasn't working out, Staffing Connection made the move to Vendorpass. Vendorpass quickly got its comprehensive compliance, payroll, and legal platforms up and running for Staffing Connection, transitioning from an initial group of five workers to a team of 15 in only two weeks. "With Vendorpass taking over the back-office work, we were able to focus on more strategic matters of delivering consultants to clients without worrying about all the overhead associated with payroll, compliance, and legal support," says Tracey Pan-Kita, president and CEO of Staffing Connection. "Vendorpass also took over the notoriously tricky arena of workers' compensation, which not only reduced Staffing Connection's liability, but also gave the firm's clients a better sense of security in using Staffing Connection's contractors," Pan-Kita adds. The cash flow assistance provided by Vendorpass proved to be an especially powerful boon, allowing Staffing Connection to successfully contend for new business against even its most established competitors. Staffing Connection has been able to place as many as 200+ consultants daily without cash flow concerns.

We were fortunate to have a group of highly motivated individuals who really dove into the courses with enthusiasm and vigor. They actively participated in the webinars and asked very insightful questions. In just over 12 weeks, they completed 20 courses and a webinar series that covered topics from the basics of recruiting, to how to work on the Recruiter.com Job Market Platform, to business development techniques for successfully signing new clients.

A Perfect Career Change I was drawn to the RCP because I worked for many years in the legal field and was ready to make a career change. I wanted to train for a new career that offers schedule flexibility, the ability to work from home, the opportunity to take control of my own destiny, and unlimited income potential. The RCP is ideal for people like me because it gives you the opportunity to learn at your own pace, even while working a full-time job. I love that the training platform is interactive and comprehensive. The training gives you all of the information you need to become a successful independent recruiter. Not only that, but you have access to experienced recruiters who are available to answer questions along the way. There is also a lively and helpful Facebook group where you can ask questions and interact with your fellow trainees. The program also includes live webinars with industry professionals and a live mentor session every Friday where you have a chance to ask questions. Now that I have completed the initial training, it is exciting to be on the Recruiter.com Job Market Platform working to fill real jobs. I can’t wait to have my first placement! I know that it’s just a matter of time because of the support I have gotten from the program. I am now starting to gain momentum as I reach out to candidates. I refer to my notes often and know that I could not be doing this without the wonderful training I received in the RCP. The recruitment industry is booming right now, but very few third-party - Sandra Eliot, RCP Trainee recruitment agencies offer training of this breadth and caliber. Some places offer no training at all. As a result, many new recruiters leave the industry in their first or second year. With the RCP, you are able to go at your own pace and choose for yourself which jobs you want to work on. You are in control, yet you have the support of your trainers and fellow trainees. This is a fabulous opportunity of which I intend to take full advantage. I am so impressed with the quality of this program. It was exactly what I was looking for and more. I am looking forward to years of success as a recruiter, and I have Recruiter.com to thank for helping me to get started in this exciting new career. If you want to become an independent recruiter, I highly recommend you sign up. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. The RCP will give you the tools you need to succeed. The rest is up to you!

ecruiters take the front line of the hiring process. They advertise the open position, read more resumes than they'd like, screen candidates for skills and cultural fit, and present the best of the best to the hiring manager. And for this service, employers pay a hefty price — often 25-30 percent of a new hire's annual salary.

Recruiters and candidates are both the victims when hiring managers go unresponsive, making them wait days if not weeks for a verdict. The candidate is in a state of limbo, waiting anxiously by the phone for a yea or nay from the recruiter. The recruiter tries to keep an open line of communication, but they only know as much as the hiring manager tells them. Being in a state of limbo is disheartening for the candidate and the recruiter alike — a fact that few candidates consider.

How to Make the Recruiter's Job Easier One common complaint recruiters have is that job seekers often apply for jobs for which they're not qualified. If there’s one way to get on a recruiter’s bad side, it's by doing this.

and [in which you] had the most seniority should have the most bullet points. Too many times, I've seen people with barely an explanation of their current director job, but they tell me all about that entry-level coordinator job from seven years ago. It's sloppy." Talent Search Consultant Doug Wald agreed with Mangum, adding, "Keep it clean, keep it accessible, keep it scannable — and never let it go until thoroughly reviewed."
Former recruiter Jenn Gorius Gosselin advised in the Recruiters Online discussion: "Know what you can do, what you want to do, and why the job and this company interest you. Ask for the job if you indeed want it." Recruiters want to hear enthusiasm for the job and company. This can be a make-or-break factor in whether a candidate advances in the process. Where Recruiters Hang Out on Social Media
While some recruiters impose a strict one-page limit, Levey sees no point in that arbitrary length. "I don't care if a resume is three pages long," he says. "If it has great content, I'll read the whole thing."
LinkedIn is certainly popular with recruiters, but that may not be the case for long.

To Buy or Not to Buy: An LMS Purchasing Checklist

hen businesses decide to adopt learning management systems (LMSs), they face a huge array of choices, with one factor capturing much of their attention: pricing. Subscription-based models with varying costs compete alongside free open-source options with no upfront costs or monthly ownership expenses.
more costs than licensed or software-as-a-service (SaaS) LMS options, industry trends currently reflect a noticeable shift toward subscription and cloud-based LMS solutions. In fact, 55 percent of LMS users employ web-based solutions, citing remote access and faster implementation as major drivers behind their decisions.
The LMS market as a whole is expected to be worth $15.72 billion by 2021, thanks in part to the surge in businesses opting for subscription services. This growth isn't surprising. Subscription models allow for unparalleled flexibility and easy scaling, Most free LMS platforms are open-source, which qualities that appeal to companies that know means the LMS's code is readily available for their LMS needs might change down the road. anyone to work with. When a business adopts an 5 Common LMS Pricing Models open-source solution, it needs to customize the code to fit its needs — and the business is on the hook for fixing any bugs encountered in the LMS. Plenty of other LMS features can play a role in a As a result, the maintenance costs of open-source company's final decision, but cost-effectiveness solutions can be quite high, especially when you is often the make-or-break factor.

purchases the software outright. While these models might remove the expenses associated with renewals and regular upkeep, vendors might charge for software updates and upgrades over time. These solutions might be good options for businesses that can afford to pay the upfront costs, factoring into their budgets the prices of periodic maintenance and software add-ons — provided the LMS in question already has most of the features the business is looking for. 2. Periodic License A periodic license is perfect for an organization that doesn't want to commit to a single solution due to changing business requirements, like a growing or shrinking employee base. This licensing model requires organizations to renew their licenses periodically, typically on an annual or biannual basis, to retain ownership rights. Periodic license fees vary depending on the vendor, so it's vital to verify whether the LMS requires only a one-time fee or also requires license renewal fees. This model is an ideal choice for organizations that aren't sure whether the LMS under consideration will meet their needs in the not-too-distant future, possibly because they need to train larger workforces or their employee numbers fluctuate regularly. 3. Subscription Models (SaaS) SaaS LMS solutions almost always involve cloudbased hosting, which means teams can access the software from anywhere at any time. LMSs offered under this model generally use one of two methods to determine monthly fees: by the number of users who have access to the software or via a flat monthly licensing fee.
users who are active during a particular payment period. For small teams or organizations that hire seasonal or temporary workers, this might be the ideal option. • Monthly Licensing Fee For organizations with large pools of employees that don't want to be charged per user, paying per month is a good idea. Companies that have at least 500 employees or anticipate a future hiring spree should consider opting for a flat monthly fee. 4. Open-Source Systems The codes for open-source LMS options are available to the public for free, but these solutions require lots of technical legwork to customize in house. On the plus side, they can be built to provide exactly what a company wants in an LMS — no more, no less. For an organization with the personnel and resources to make it work, an opensource LMS system might be a legitimate choice. 5. Freemium Like open-source solutions, freemium LMS software comes with no upfront costs, licensing fees, or monthly subscriptions. Instead, freemium LMSs require payment for specific features and add-ons that help organizations maximize the functionality of their learning management system modules. —

uilding an attractive workplace is an ongoing challenge for companies of all sizes. Employers are constantly striving to stand out from the competition, and while offerings like ping-pong tables and unlimited vacation might appear to be the perks employees want, it's actually a company's internal values that attract and retain talent.
In 2015, the United Nations (UN) created 17 Sustainable Development Goals that can help organizations achieve purposedriven, environmentallyfriendly business cultures. By adopting the following UN goals, companies can make an impact, create sustainable organizations, and attract employees who are seeking greater purpose in the workplace.
For example, water company Anglian Water has implemented technology solutions such as mobile platforms and educational programs to ensure employees and the company's 6 million customers work together to manage limited water supplies efficiently. Sustainable business strategies like monitoring water consumption are key to capturing the attention of the millions of millennials in today's workforce. Sustainable Cities and Communities

Salary History Bans Are Gaining Momentum — Here's How Recruiters Can Keep Up
Unlocking New Talent Salary histories are often used to determine if an applicant will even consider a job offer based on a company's pay capabilities. In fact, the WorldatWork survey found 80 percent of employers use salary histories to determine offers that candidates will find acceptable.

California's new bill specifically prohibits employers from asking about an applicant's previous pay orally or in writing, personally or through an agent.
Major changes to employment legislation bring new obstacles to recruiters. However, with the right mindset and approach, recruiters can transform salary history bans from obstacles to opportunities. Opening a Door for Honest Communication Salary history bans force candidates and recruiters to speak candidly about pay expectations and realities. Through these deeper conversations, you can get a clearer view of an applicant's negotiation and communication skills, drive, and determination. Recruiter.com Magazine
Passing a candidate's salary history from one employer to the next only perpetuates this out-ofcontrol pay gap. Well-intentioned recruiters can accidentally take one company's inequalities and propel them into their own placements based on a candidate's previous employer's pay structures. Without pay histories, it becomes easier to wipe out these biases — and, eventually, the pay gap overall. Recruiters can finally start every candidate out on the same, equal footing.
