FLT Counterbalance Conti Nights

We often talk about job seekers sharpening their skills for the big interview, but hold up &ndash; what about the folks on the other side of the table? That&rsquo;s right, we're shining a light on why it's absolutely crucial for hiring managers to rock the art of interviewing. And whilst it might be a skill anyone can learn, we want to let you know all about Google&rsquo;s Interview Warm-up programme, a handy resource that can significantly elevate your hiring prowess.
&nbsp;
Whilst it's aimed at job seekers &ndash; we happen to think hiring managers can benefit from it too. Let&rsquo;s have a look at why it could be a game-changer for your business.
&nbsp;
Crafting questions is trickier than it appears.
It can be a stressful task to craft interview questions &ndash; even for the most experienced recruiters. Google pooled together a range of questions covering different topics that you might consider adding to your question bank.
&nbsp;
Of course, certain companies follow a rigid interview structure with predetermined questions and if your company has a set plan, it's best to stick to it. However, if that's not the case, they could be a beneficial kickstart for you, or they might even offer a bit of inspo to jazz up your current questions.
&nbsp;
It's a handy tool to evaluate candidate responses.
When a candidate tackles a question, Interview Warmup gives a simple rundown to show if they&rsquo;re hitting the key points or going round in circles. It can also can suggest topics for discussion to give candidates fresh ideas if their mind has gone blank (we&rsquo;ve all been there, right?!)
&nbsp;
This in turn can benefit recruiters and hiring managers, because knowing what you're looking for helps you help the candidate. Keep in mind, if someone doesn't stand out at interview, it doesn't mean they won't excel in the role. You can guide them to give you the answers you need to figure out if they can really handle the job.
&nbsp;
It doesn&rsquo;t replace actual practice or real advice from the pros
Bear this in mind &ndash; whilst it&rsquo;s a handy little tool, and can assist both candidates and hiring managers in getting ready for an interview, it's not the whole shebang for honing your interview skills.

Learning the skills needed to land a new job is often just as crucial as learning how to excel in your potential career. Whether it&rsquo;s mastering the art of networking, acing job applications, or crafting a killer CV, there&rsquo;s always something candidates can be doing to make sure they&rsquo;re completely prepared. But, perhaps almost everyone&rsquo;s achilles heel in pursuit of the perfect role is nailing the most nerve-wracking aspect of the job hunt itself: the dreaded interview.
&nbsp;
Navigating interviews, especially in a new field, can be tough and practice and preparation are crucial steps you can take to make sure you ace that interview.

Elevate your interview skills: Google's Interview Warm-Up

&ldquo;Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.&rdquo; According to Warren Buffett, anyway. Whilst we know that procurement decisions are at the heart of your operation, finding the right suppliers and striking the balance between cost and quality is a constant challenge. In this blog, we want to dive into a topic that we frequently encounter in our line of work: the battle between best price and best value.
The best price game Let's face it; we all love a good deal. In the competitive world of procurement, securing the lowest price can seem like an immediate victory. After all, saving money upfront can be appealing to your bottom line. However, it's important to recognise that the best price isn't always synonymous with the best value.
The best value advantage On the other hand, best value takes a more comprehensive view of procurement. It goes beyond the initial cost and considers the long-term impact of a purchasing decision. Here are some key factors to consider when aiming for the best value:
<ul>
<li>Quality: Are you receiving high levels of service, and are your suppliers likely to continue this over the expected lifespan of the contract? In the long run, a supplier that is consistently performing against set objectives will save you many hours spent performance managing, amongst other unwarranted costs.</li>
<li>Reliability: Can you depend on your supplier to consistently deliver on time and without disruptions? Reliability is a significant factor in minimising downtime and ensuring smooth operations.</li>
<li>Innovation and technology: Does your supplier bring innovation and technology that can improve your processes or products? Sometimes, paying a premium for cutting-edge solutions can result in a competitive advantage.</li>
<li>Risk mitigation: Do they have a track record of handling crises and disruptions effectively? Are they financially secure? In uncertain times, having a resilient supplier can be invaluable.</li>
</ul>
Striking the balance &ndash; who&rsquo;s paying the price? While the appeal of the lowest price is understandable, it's crucial to weigh it against any potential downsides. A supplier offering the best price might cut corners on quality, have unpredictable delivery times, or lack the support and expertise to deliver on their promises. The Association of Labour Providers are so concerned about who&rsquo;s paying the price that they have launched the Fair&rsquo;s Fair awareness and education programme, supporting the commercially sustainable procurement of agency labour so that it&rsquo;s never workers that pay the price of poor purchasing practice. You can access their <a href="https://labourproviders.org.uk/resources/fair-procurement-of-agency-labour-good-practice-toolkit-2/">Fair Procurement of Agency Labour Toolkit here.</a>
Best price versus the best value is a complex one We get it, cost-saving measures are crucial for any business, but you can&rsquo;t underestimate the value of investing in quality, long-term partnerships with your recruitment provider. In the industrial sector, efficiency and performance are paramount &ndash; and that means, in theory at least, the best value should outshine the appeal of scoring a bargain. Of course, your procurement decisions should align with your broader business goals and contribute to your organisation's success in the long run. And when it comes to your recruitment procurement, if you&rsquo;re looking for a supplier that offers both value and competitive pricing, with the reassurance of financial security and award-winning compliance, don't hesitate to reach out to us.&nbsp;
