The entire process of job searching can be very nerve-wracking. But one of the most (if not the most) intimidating parts of it is the interview. Getting the chance to get your foot in the door is without a doubt something to be excited about, but when you think about how the interview is your only chance to make a great and lasting impression, it starts to feel more than a little daunting.

Importance of job interviews in the application process

Interviews give you and your potential employer the opportunity to determine and decide if your skills align with the company’s needs, values, and culture. It also allows you to become more familiar with your potential work environment, colleagues, and other information that will ultimately help you decide whether the job is a good fit for you or not.

With that said, showing up to your job interview the right way is of the utmost importance. And while it’s true for both in-person and virtual job interviews, screenings and meetings conducted via Zoom or Skype have become more commonplace because of the Coronavirus pandemic. So we’ve compiled tips to help you ace both your in-person and virtual job interviews.

General job interview tips

Do your research
Not only will doing research about the industry and the company help you better determine whether or not the role would be a good fit for you and your skills, but it will also help you go into the interview with confidence.

Learn about and practice answering common interview questions
Being prepared to answer common interview questions like “Tell me about yourself” and “What makes you interested in the role?” is a great way to effectively (and quickly) communicate who you are and the value that you have to offer the company.

Be prepared with examples of your work
During your interview, you’ll likely be asked about specific work experiences you’ve had that are relevant to the position you’re applying for. Reading the job description thoroughly can help ensure that you are able to think of the most fitting examples of work that you’ve done in the past that are worth highlighting.

Dress to impress
This might seem like something that only applies to in-person interviews, but trust us, this applies to virtual ones as well. You don’t have to don a tux or a gown, but dressing professionally will show you’re serious about the position you’re applying for so absolutely no pyjamas, and you definitely need to wear pants!

If you’re going to an in-person interview and you’ve been in contact with the recruiter before you’re set to meet, you can ask about the company’s dress code. If not, you can do your own research about the company to learn what’s appropriate. It also wouldn’t hurt to plan your outfit the night before your interview and to get them ready (and ironed!) for the next day.

Be early
Arriving early for an interview not only helps you get more settled in and relaxed for your interview, it also allows you the time to observe the workplace and your potential coworkers.

And while this also seems like something that only applies to in-person interviews, there’s plenty of reasons why you’d want to be early for your virtual interview as well. Being early will allow you ample time to check that your tools and tech are working properly. Overall, arriving late (or even ‘just in time’) for an interview just isn’t the best idea.

Video job interview tips

Check internet connection and do a test run
And this is something that you shouldn’t just check and test right before your interview, you should be ensuring that your tools, technology, and connectivity are all working the minute you agree to the interview. With that said, you should still check and do a test run of your internet, microphone, camera, and any other tools you’d be using on the day of your interview, just to be sure. 

Set the scene, minimize distractions
The best time to determine which area in the house you’d be having the interview in is when you’re testing your tools and tech. This will help you find the spot with the best lighting, background (tip: a blank wall will ensure you’re the focal point), and the least noise and distractions.

Mind your body language
Just because you and your interviewer aren’t in the same room, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t keep your body language in check. The fact that you’re engaging with someone virtually actually makes it even more important that you pay attention to body language. After all, you couldn’t really do the firm handshake trick on Zoom. So instead, compensate by sitting up straight, maintaining a friendly smile, and ensuring that your camera is at eye-level.

Make a connection, stand out
You’ll never know how many interviews a recruiter conducts in a day and who knows, you might be at the very end of the list. That’s why it’s important to be genuine and positive throughout your interview to allow the recruiter to be more at ease and relate with you. Mentioning relevant common interests can also help break the ice and might also allow the recruiter a bit of break from routine questions and conversations. 

Connecting with people isn’t always easy. And in our #NewNormal, it’s easy to think that having a genuine connection with an interviewer isn’t as important as it was pre-pandemic. When in fact, it’s quite the contrary. It is an integral part of interviews, even virtual ones. You want the interviewer to remember you as a capable and qualified person, rather than just a face on a screen that easily blends in with other job seekers.

We wish you luck!

Using job boards, attending job fairs, and asking for referrals are good ways to find your next hire. But if you want to find your next GREAT hire then using a recruitment agency (a great one) is your best bet. The basic purpose of recruitment agencies is to help companies find the perfect people to fill their open positions while also helping job seekers find the most ideal roles for their skills. But many of us don’t realise that they provide some other great benefits as well. Here are some of them:

Better Access To Quality Candidates

Recruitment agencies have access to a wide range of highly skilled job seekers that have been pre-screened and/or referred by a reputable source. The goal for job agencies is always long term and worthwhile employment, so not only will they align you and your company’s needs and values with availability, but with the right abilities as well. 

Save Time

Part of an agency’s role is to collect and assess candidates’ CV’s, filter talented job seekers, check references, and conduct interviews. This is all so companies don’t have to. Consistently working with recruitment agencies also allows them to keep track of and better understand a company’s recruitment needs, which can, in turn, ensure that they hire the most ideal candidates at a timely and cost-effective manner.

Recruitment Agencies Have Knowledge Of Specialist Skills & Industries

Together with a company’s growth, the types of roles you’ll need to hire for will expand as well. This will require special and complex interviews for positions that in-house recruiters might not always be familiar with. This is another area where recruitment agencies come in very handy because they have staff and specialist recruitment consultants for specific industries and roles. Because of their experience in specialist recruitment, they would also be the perfect resource for industry-specific trends, required skills, and salary levels.

The Focus Is Always On Fulfilling The Clients’ Needs

Recruitment agencies don’t get compensated before a successful candidate is placed. And if there is no successful placement, no fee is collected. This means that the focus is always on fulfilling the client’s needs first by ensuring the roles are filled by the best candidates who possess the right skills and are genuinely interested in becoming a part of the company.

Recruitment Agencies Have An Extended Reach

It’s easy to think that all the best candidates for your company’s open positions are actively looking for a job. But that isn’t the case at all. There are those that are referred to as ‘passive talent’, and they reaffirm the saying that the most worthwhile things take time to find. This talent isn’t really looking for a job, and it’s most likely because they are valued and are happy in their current position, which often means they have a lot to offer and contribute to the company. Recruitment agencies have a better chance of knowing who these people are, how to connect with them, and the right ways to incentivise them into making a move. 

Another benefit of working with recruitment agencies that’s worth noting is the simple fact that recruiting people is really what agencies are all about. Finding the best people to match with the most ideal roles in the most prime companies is where our focus and passion lies. With that said, we ensure to maximise not only the number but the quality of candidates we receive as well. We do this by supercharging the hiring process, from writing the most compelling job advertisements, to conducting the most effective interviews to better filter candidates, and more.

HR leaders play an essential role when introducing a company to a new employee. It is fundamental to brief about the organization’s culture, values, processes and expectations to ensure that the new team member proceeds comfortably in its role.

Welcoming starters in person brings a higher sense of interaction. However, with most people working from their homes because of the recent COVID-19 situation, companies felt forced to embrace remote work and the onboarding process.

Many companies have been hiring remote workers even before the coronavirus situation started. Obviously, this brings us one question: How can I onboard my new employee remotely and efficiently?

We’ve decided to share 10 tips to have a powerful remote onboarding process:

1. A warm welcome – Make the new team member feel welcome!
2. Delegate – Name a contact person responsible for the onboarding. This person will be the main contact, responsible for the induction process, sharing files, links, videos and will be open to future questions
3. Test – Refine your onboarding process. We have 3 words: Test! Test! And Test! It’s all about the user experience. Ensure that you have an efficient process, everything is working properly, all the links are connected and the expected results are set in terms of what you want to achieve with each action
4. Improvement – Embrace automation. If you have to onboard several workers this will definitely save you some time and training cost. Create videos linked to actions that allow the new employee to navigate and learn by himself
5. Share values – Introduce the company’s culture. Make the new employee get familiar with your organisation’s shared values
6. Goal-oriented – Have clear goals for the first week. Set expectations, so they know exactly what to work on during their first week
7. Communication – Choose a good video chat channel with a shared screen to be used when necessary. Most commonly used are Zoom, Whereby, Google Hangouts, and others
8. Videos – Create short videos with shared screens. A great tool to teach a process, not even for new employees but also for veterans that haven’t done any particular task yet. You can also leave it available in your internal system as Intranet, for example, so all the employees may access it whenever they feel like some learning and development
9. Awareness – Be mindful that not everyone had previous remote working experience. It’s important to provide proper support to cover eventual challenges faced by this starter
10. Open mind – Be open to feedback. This is important to improve your onboarding process for future hirings

Remember, it’s crucial to make the new employee feel welcome, getting familiar with the organisation culture, and also comfortable knowing exactly what is expected from them. Working remotely can be challenging especially for those who are new to this and are used to the physical working space itself. It is your role to ensure that you make a positive first impression, adopting dynamic systems, keeping a healthy connection with other employees and be genuine supportive in order to maintain the new member’s motivation and performing favourably.

There is something I’ve noticed. As a recruitment agency in the digital and tech space, we get many many (many) CVs and applications every week. Hundreds and hundreds in fact.

So how many phone calls do we get per week about those jobs? How many candidates call us after they have applied?

Maybe 10.

What that shows me is that many candidates are applying for jobs and crossing their fingers and toes hoping someone will call them back about it. And sure, that might happen some of the time, but it will take time and sometimes never happens. All you get is an email reply (sometimes nothing).

Here is a little recruiter secret. If we find someone suitable who applied before you then we will start the process with them and there is a chance you miss out. Because let’s face it, going through hundreds of CVs is a time-consuming process and most people only go through enough until they find the few they want.

We want to find the best person for every role but we also want to find them quickly. I posted a role a day ago and already have more than 100 applications. I got about 3 phone-calls about that role. Guess which candidates I’ve spoken with first? Yep, the ones who called me.

One of them wasn’t suitable for that role but was ideal for another role so after the screening and interview process was complete I submitted him to a more suitable opportunity that he would have never known about had he not been proactive and called me up. He now has a shot at a great role that will grow his career.

Another candidate applied for a different position and then kept calling and calling me and finally managed to reach me (between meetings). He was perfect for the role he had applied for and was submitted after the screening and interview process was complete.

Another candidate also did the same thing and she impressed me even further by coming in for an interview 2 hours later!! That kind of attitude and proactivity translated into every facet of her work and it was clear she was a go-getter. She was submitted and the next day she had a client interview. Wow, what a response time.

Now, some candidates will just ‘machine gun’ applications out to everyone and everywhere, hoping something will stick and someone will call them back. Sure that might happen some of the time and you can try your luck that way.

But if you see a job you LOVE and one you think you’d be PERFECT for then I highly encourage you to pick up that phone and give the recruiter or hiring manager a call and let them know you are there. It’s already a great start because it demonstrates you are proactive, you don’t have to tell them. Tick.

A quick note, please always send your CV or click apply BEFORE you call so you don’t waste your call and we can access your experience immediately and if the fit is good we can move quickly.

If you wonder why you are not getting call-backs to positions you’ve applied to that you think you are perfect for, it could just be that some proactive candidate beat you to it. So next time you see that dream job, apply and then pick up the phone and have a chat!!

Good luck and hope this helps.

We get asked this question quite often so I wanted to write a short post to help anyone out there who is confused about the difference between PAYG, ABN and PTY LTD and clarify the difference for you in terms of Tax obligations.

PAYG: Standard employee arrangement. Either as a permanent employee or temp where you submit timesheets and get paid regularly, Super is paid quarterly and tax is deducted every pay. You can then claim once a year when you do your tax return.

PTY LTD: Some long term contractors invest in creating a company to contract through. This comes at extra costs and admin overhead but it can have some tax benefits if you are a career contractor. Probably not worth the hassle for shorter-term contracts.

And here is the curly one… ABN Sole Traders

Do you have an ABN and want to do some contract work? Are you an employer looking to engage an ABN contractor?

There are some pretty strict guidelines set out by the ATO regarding ABN Sole Traders so hopefully, this information will help you be compliant and prevent you from getting into hot water with the ATO.

We often get asked the question by contractors that have an ABN and are a Sole Trader why we still have to withhold their tax and pay their Super ourselves.

The simple answer is that ABN Sole Traders that do 9-5 type work are effectively seen as employees in the eyes of the tax office. If you are doing regular work during regular hours and getting paid a regular (daily or hourly rate) then you are not doing ‘contract’ work.

ATO TOOLS

Employee or contractor decision tool: https://t.ly/e9mVk (are you really a contractor?)

Employer tax and super obligations: https://t.ly/WjB7v (if the decision tool decides someone is an employee then it’s against the law to treat them as a contractor)

If your engagement came up as an employee classification. You can still probably claim more via your ABN but it looks like legally your employer will have to treat you as an employee and withhold tax.

The ATO is getting smarter and smarter these days with their Machine Learning and AI and you want to make sure that you can continue contracting and engaging contractors without exposing yourself.

Hope this helps 🙂

Note: I’m not an accountant so this should not be taken as financial advice.

What is a pomodoro? Yes it’s delicious sauce made of fresh tomatoes basil and olive oil that you can mix in with pasta. But it’s also a time management technique and it’s magic. Some of you may already be aware of this secret sauce but I thought I’d share this for the benefit of those who are not. 

Why is it magic? Well, think about the way we all work now… open offices, constant interruptions, pings and notifications, communication and multi tasking overhead, it’s amazing we can get any work done at all.

After discovering pomodoros, I was surprised what I could achieve with extreme focus when everything else was ignored except one task I’m currently working on. It’s really when you decide to focus on one thing and ignore everything else for 25 mins at a time that magic starts to happen. 

A simple technique originally developer in the 1980’s by an Italian University student name Cirillo. Pomodoro is used globally now as a form of time boxing and in software design in paired programming contexts. At its simplest, it’s a 4 step process listed below. 

1.     Decide on the task to be done

2.     Set the pomodoro timer (traditionally to 25 minutes)

3.     Work on the task

4.     End work when the timer rings and put a checkmark on a piece of paper

Then you just repeat this process over and over again. Some tasks only require one pomodoro (eg. Checking emails in the morning) and some complex and involved tasks need 5 or 6 pomodoros. When work is timeboxed into 25 min intervals, its easier to become productive and when the whole office is doing it people stop casually interrupting people that are in pomodoro sprints (slack is still ok) and everyone becomes more focused and productive (and happier). The other little benefit is that at the end of a pomodoro you can take a guilt free 5 min break. I have a pomodoro timer that I got at the Mac App Store for $7 which combines a to do list and pomodoro timer so you can stack your pomodoros for the day. 

Changing to this type of work does require a change of mindset and some discipline to get started and stay focused on one task but once the concept of pomodoros starts to kick in, it will change the way you work forever!

“It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly. Do not mistake activity for achievement.” —Isocrates

Have you ever treaded water? Maybe when you were learning to swim or when they made you try water polo in High School? It’s HARD. I mean you are in the water vigorously moving your arms and legs trying to stay afloat. Lots of movement and activity but you’re not actually getting anywhere. You’re more or less in the one spot, burning energy.

This is all well and good if you are waiting for the ball to come to you but it’s more likely you have to chase the ball. For you to get the ball, you’ll need a different strategy.

First decide where you need to be and then start swimming towards that place. It’s a coordinated movement with a goal in mind. This will eventually get you to the location you decided upon before you started swimming.

It’s the same in a work environment. We’re all so busy these days. Busy with this thing and that thing and checking the emails and moving in this direction and that direction.
So much activity and so little achievement. If a water polo player kept swimming in one direction for a bit and then in another direction and then changed again, they would look like they are very active but wouldn’t really get anywhere.

The best way to achieve something big or small is to stop for second, decide where you want to go (or what you want to achieve) and only then start swimming / working towards that goal. Sure you may have to dodge left or swerve right, maybe do a duck dive, but if the goal is always front of mind then the reaching the destination is almost always assured.

Too many times you see people who are busy busy and stressed all the time. Choose the most important thing you need to do right now, only do that until it’s done and then choose the next most important thing to do. This strategy will bring a certain sense of peace and achievement to your working life. It certainly has to mine.

Holacracy is an organisational structure that encourages employees to ignore ‘traditional’ job descriptions and instead work to their strengths to collaboratively achieve company outcomes.

Embraced by tech and innovation led companies Medium and Valve, it recently rose to public attention after WIRED and Fast Company reported online retailer Zappos, known for their customer centric decision making, were embracing the system to improve their productivity and deliver better outcomes.

Holocracy essentially is an organisational model that lies somewhere between bureaucracy and a flat structure. Could companies here in Australia embracing tech do with some of the cold hard truths gleamed from Holocracy principals?

#1 Are job descriptions limiting what your team thinks they could deliver?

In the Holacracy model, job roles are defined around the deliverables, not the individual. Employees can fill several different roles, depending on their strengths.

There is always scope for an individual to deliver value to other parts of the business, given the opportunity, and it’s this premise Holacracy embraces.

As an employer, you have a responsibility to encourage your team to ‘think bigger’. This is not only for your teams’ professional development, but also to safeguard your investment.

People are complex. Everyone has, regardless of whether they’ve articulated it before, professional and personal goals that motivate them to turn up to work every day.

Not all employees know what it takes to achieve their goals. Consider for example, some of comments we hear from job seekers.

• ‘If I get one years experience in this role, I’ll be able to get a promotion.’
• ‘If I can deliver five projects to add to my portfolio, I’ll be in a good position to get a better job in two years.’
• ‘I really don’t like my workplace. It’s not the right fit. I want to move on, but it won’t look good on my CV moving on so soon.’

Limiting? Yes. But true? Absolutely.

Mentors and leaders need to take the role of coaches, helping their team members identify and then action their professional goals. Help them articulate their internal view towards one that benefits both parties.

It’s as easy as asking a few simple questions and offering your support. Ask your team what drives them to continually learn and grow. Offer to support them in achieving their professional goals. Perhaps your Ruby on Rails Engineer may have a hidden a talent for bringing in new business. Your Digital Producer may also be adept at mentoring junior staff.

People are full of hidden surprises and as an employer it is your duty to develop them. You might even uncover a few who would rather be doing something completely different.

#2 Are your team delivering to their strengths – not just project outcomes?

It can be easy for both employers to put employees in a box, based on their immediate skill set and it’s this premise Holocracy challenges.

We see this a lot in recruitment. Digital specialists that come to us when they are looking for new opportunities say they’re bored, and that their current employer doesn’t challenge them.

As an employer, it can be easy to assume a tech employee is the sum of that one skill set listed on their resume. In fact, digital specialists are some of the most agile and adept at embracing new skill sets due to the speed at which technology develops.

Just like a good wine, our talents only improve with age. As we embrace new technologies, work on projects that stretch our thinking and surround ourselves with people who bring out the best in us, our capacity for learning and adapting grows.

Consider whether your team members have more capacity than immediately meets the eye. Do they have skills that are not being flexed in their current role? Could they be delivering value to others areas of the business outside of their immediate deliverables? Can they contribute to the wider growth of the company?

If they enjoy a skill set, more often than not, they are likely either pretty good at it, or, will have an inclination to learn more about it (to then get really good at it). But you have to give them the option first.

Put it this way. If your team have a proverbial carrot dangled in front of them that ties into achieving, with your support, their personal and professional goals, they’ll more likely be happier at work, be more productive, and most beneficially to you – be loyal to the company that encourages them to grow.

#3 Do you step aside to celebrate successes, or take the credit?

Holacracy advocates decisions made by an empowered individual, rather than bottle necked by managers. Forbes reported Medium embraced this ‘self organised’ style of management, where individuals are encouraged to make decisions around what ‘circle’ they work in.

It poses the question about the role a manager plays in the success of a project or outcome, who should take ‘credit’ and the role office politics plays in actually getting the work done.

Ask any tech employee what role their work plays in making their manager look good to their manager. More often than you’d like to hear, their job can play a larger role than you may think in making their manager’s manager look good. Tech specialists perhaps know this more than anyone, where their work can be used as a ‘proof point’ for managers who have sold in a tech solution to their internal stakeholders and need it to succeed.

Actor Kevin Spacey says this brilliantly. “If you’re lucky enough to do well, it’s your responsibility to send the elevator back down”. Consider whether your employees successes and concerns are being heard at a senior level, or whether you pocket those for yourself.

#4 As a leader, do you walk the talk, or just talk the talk?

Holocracy encourages all employees to be accountable to the same rules and regulations, regardless of status. This apparently removes any room for emotive office politics and instead, makes people accountable.

Sounds simple, right? Yet so many owners and senior decision makers think they’re exempt from this basic premise. While grand plans to ‘empower the team to achieve their goals’ sounds good; very few leaders, particularly those who are have founded a company based on their ability to develop or monetise a product, actually have the soft skills to coach and develop people.

It’s a little ‘left brain vs right brain’ type scenario. People who develop products have incredible insight around understanding how systems and technology work to create innovation. However, the same doesn’t always apply for ‘soft skills’ – e.g. developing humans, who have needs, emotions and are constantly evolving.

What leaders need to remember, particularly in tech or start up industries, is that leadership shouldn’t be a given – it is earned. And the higher up the pedestal you go, the more accountable you need to be to your team.

Julie Gerberding, M.D, speaking to Bloomberg Business, said it best when describing a piece of paper she had taped to her computer. “Leadership is a privilege”, it reads. Currently the Executive VP for strategic communications, global public policy and population health, and a leading infectious disease expert, she is in a highly influential position where her recommendations can affect outcomes. Leading with empathy, and recognising your privilege, rather than focusing purely on outcomes, is a skill some tech leaders have yet to finesse.
