Why Candidates Get Rejected

Why Candidates get rejected

It is common the find that you are many a times rejected despite the fact that you have right credentials/ experience? You feel disappointed and dejected, when you find that the person next to you is no better than you. Either he/she is equal to you or less experienced and qualified than you, though your Bio-data gets shortlisted. Merely getting your bio shortlisted does not ensure that you get selected.

Why?

Have you ever thought about it?

May be Yes. May be No?

This is the time, you must do some sort of analysis to find out the reason.

Have you ever considered the following before applying for any job?

• Is this job really for you?
• Is the company really looking for the kind of experience you have or something else?
• What is the salary level offered and your expectations?
• What level of expertise organization is looking for and what are you offering in terms of expertise?
• If selected, what is the timeline within which you can join the new organization?
• You might have included those skills which actually you don’t have, or might have taken support from AI tool to frame your bio and forwarded your bio without rechecking.

Companies may not consider you:

• If it is a niche skill, the process is stringent. There is emphasis on Quality than Quantity.
• Some times during bulk hiring, the bio may be shortlisted and candidate may be called for interview, but during interaction, the hiring manager may find a better candidate, in terms of skills.
• During first few minutes of your interaction with hiring team, you may have acted in a fashion, which may not have been liked by the team, even though, it may not have been intentional.

Next time when you are applying for any job, ensure, you have complete details of the job, the organization and its culture.
