But she is not as sold on some of the other time-honored ways to attract candidates. I've been in recruiting for over 10 years. I used to be a big fan of job fairs, but nowadays everyone seems to have a job. We are looking for passive candidates. Mohl's company has widened their search by holding an open house at a coffee bar and by making appearances at local events.
Every year there is a town festival and there is a job fair as part of that.
It's a good way to get passive job seekers. People are going for the exhibits and the rides, but they can stop and see us, as well. The company has also utilized an area community college, taking part in a program that offers mid-career technology training At Network Solutions, the largest amount of job openings can be found in technology and software, as well as in marketing, business development and customer programs. Mohl says it takes her about 30 to 45 days to fill a position. Although the general job market is tough on employers, Network Solutions receives more than 2,000 resumes a month.
