#SocialImpactComms Job Board 92
+25 new job opportunities curated for you! Take a look 🤓
Hola!
Last week I was telling you about a horrible job interview I did back in 2018 and today I thought it would be good to remind you about something I find very important. You don’t need to tick all the boxes to apply for a job. In my opinion, job descriptions tend to picture some kind of perfect candidate that only exists in the recruiter's dreams. Whereas it is legit to ask for the classics “must-have” and “desired skills” (or even “bonus points if you…”), I believe a candidate is a good fit if they can develop new skills aside from their main expertise. This will likely translate into a more motivated employee, don’t you think?
Oh, and if you are reading this and identify as a woman. Remember that research shows that men and women view similar numbers of jobs, but women are less likely to apply, particularly to roles more senior than their current position. Let’s break the statistics 💪🏾
Have a positive week ahead 💙
