For Job Candidates

Preferred Method To Be Contacted By A Candidate: Phone Preferred Process For Following Up On Application: A phone call is cool. Always good to chat with folks interested in progressing their career. Things That Impress You In A Candidate: A hard skill set that reflects expertise in an industry. It's important to be ambitious when seeking an upgrade in a career but it sure is easier to help people who have the credentials to take the next step. Things Candidates Must Include To Be Considered For Job: The recruitment process is transforming to a more digital one day by day. Most candidates already have enough information available online to dictate their competency and build a profile. If they don't have that....I guess we could do an old school resume? Things That Will Disqualify A Candidate From Getting Considered: Not following through on commitments to Sugar Systems or to the client company. We have a reputation to protect and the people we refer are a direct extension of us as a company. We like people who make us look good! Can Candidates Apply For Multiple Positions And Not Get Penalized?: Yes

Recruiter's Perspective

What's your favorite quote? "A rise in tides raises all ships." What do you like to do in your free time? I'm a big reader. Success leaves clues (often times in books written by great men) and I'm trying to soak them up Sherlock Holmes style. In a sentence, why do you enjoy working at your company? I am passionate about people and it's satisfying to be able to help a candidate upgrade their career while also helping a company fill a challenging position. In a sentence, how does your company have fun on a regular basis? "Team building exercises" where we go drive go carts, smash some baseballs at a batting cage, go white water rafting, etc. Stuff like that is engaging AND a tax write off! ;-) In a sentence, how would you describe the employees at your company? Driven. These guys and girls get the job done day in and day out.
