STUCK TOO LONG? OR A JOB - JUMPER ?

Abhi

From a modern HR manager's point of view, both kinds of UNDESIRABLE.

Obviously, if an executive is

   . In same company for 20 years

       Or

   . At same "Design. Level" for 10 years (may be even 5 !)

Then, there is something WRONG !

Similarly, if a guy has changed 8 jobs in 12 years, then too, there is something (terribly) wrong ! How long will he stay with us?

But then,

What is too long or too short ?

These "Concepts/ ideas" tend to become "too subjective" and vary from one HR manager to another !

Why do these tend to become "subjective" ?

Ans : Absence of Data - with which to compare a person.

Of course, availability of "Comparable Data", by itself, does not make all HR managers,

ABSOLUTELY OBJECTIVE,

but, their "subjectivity" gets reduced to a considerable extent.

·     Problem is

.  When an HR manager is going thru a resume, it becomes very difficult for him to figure out,

 . When exactly that person joined & left each company and how long did he work at each place.

. What was his longest "duration" & his shortest duration and with which companies

. What was his "Ave" duration

. How many jobs did he change during his career.

The great advantage of Image Builder is that, it presents all such data about a candidate in a very NEAT/ CONCISE/ CHRONOLOGICAL format.

This format is very easy to grasp.

It also enables an HR managers to reach QUICK CONCLUSIONS, as to

. Is this fellow a "Below Average" plodder ?

       Or

. a "Over Ambitious" Job - Jumper ?

Now, on top of this handy tabulation, if we also present to an HR Mgr,

TENURE PROFILE  (See enclosure),

It would enable HR mgr. to look at this candidates in TOTAL PRESPECTIVE,

 - In relation to other comparable executives.

Now, an HR manager has a TOOL to

   . Take quick decision (call or not call?)

    . Justify decision taken (if Boss questions !)

With TENURE PROFILE, I feel HR mgrs.

Would INSIST on Image Builders only!
