Take the Time Necessary

Today I was taking a few job orders from a specific company. They had a few needs and were clearly short staffed. I was asking questions that were necessary to fill the positions. The hiring manager was very busy and I don’t have all that I need to fill the position. Sure, I have the basics. But I don’t know about the culture of the company. I don’t know the dress code or the schedule. Until I find all this information out, I am not really going to be able to best exemplify my company the first try. I know I am not always a fun person to talk to and some of my questions may seem trivial, but I am only trying to get things right. A few extra minutes in the beginning may save days to weeks in the long run when searching for a candidate. Please take the time initially to allow the recruiters to do the best of their abilities.
