This story requires our BI Prime membership. To read the full article,Edelman, the biggest public relation firms in the world, gets more than 4,000 job applications per month in the US for an average of 175 openings.
In addition to 13 US offices, Edelman has locations in Canada, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific, with almost 7,000 employees globally. "Upwards of 80 to 85% of the people we're reaching out to are not looking for jobs," Segal said. "Really use LinkedIn the way you would use your resume."Recruiters interview candidates whose resume stands out, then decide if they should move forward in the interview process.
Edelman looks for people who have stepped out of their comfort zones, so candidates should give examples of past work, including projects that haven't gone well. To reach these goals, Smith said HR and recruiting teams work with her diversity and inclusion team to determine where they should recruit, what materials they should bring, and which experiences they should highlight to attract a wide range of applicants. Edelman also looks internally for hiring recommendations and rewards employees for referrals, Segal said.
