Continue the phrase...
The first task offered to the Lucky Hunter team was to continue the phrase. Let's see, how they coped with the task.
IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who ...
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who don't know many synonyms for words "interesting" and "unique" to describe a job opening."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who don't like people."
Daria
Lead Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who aren't courageous, agile and not skilled" :)
Tanya
The Lucky Hunter Leader
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for slow people."
Valeria
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who are annoyed with mobile app notifications."
Alina
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who offer a Java Developer an opening for a position of a Javascript Develoepr."
Maria
The Lucky Hunter IT Researcher
"IT recruiting isn't suitable for those who are not Lucky and not Hunter."
Polina

The second question could discredit our team, but the deep experience of working with people helped to uncover researchers' plan and didn't allow them to spoil the Lucky Hunter recruiters' reputation in the eyes of clients. Here's the question:
You slept through the interview with the candidate. What you'll do then?
"Such cases never happen to me!" (P.S. someone wants a raise :)
Tanya
The Lucky Hunter Leader
"I'll tell him/her that I dreamed of how he/she gets a job in this company and becomes successful and rich there."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"It's impossible. I'm not a recruiter that does the work half-heartedly, and I don't call candidates early in the morning. That's what I call savvy."
Daria
Lead Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"I'll write that I had a dream about how I was interviewing him/her, but on the last question I suddenly woke up, so we need to have a call again, as I'm interested to know what he/she still expects from his/her new job?"
Alina
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"I never conduct interviews in the morning, because I am a night owl, and in the morning it is very difficult for me to communicate with people enthusiastically! But if such an incident has happened, then the candidate and I will probably understand each other, because they also constantly oversleep and postpone interviews" :)
Valeria
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"You can't oversleep an interview with the candidate if you schedule it for 6 p.m.!"
Maria
The Lucky Hunter IT Researcher
"It wasn't the recruiter who's overslept, it's the candidate who phoned earlier!"
Polina
An independent Lucky Hunter Content Manager, whose opinion no one asked.
For the successful completion of the third task, it was necessary, as in the first case, to continue the phrase. Let's see how our specialists coped with the task.
You come home from work with a sense of accomplishment if...
"I haven't forgotten to log our from all Hunt flow candidate search services."
Alina
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"I am so tired that I have no energy for self-reflection."
Daria
Lead Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"If during lunch I managed to solve all the sudden issues and even eat."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"Everything was done, we easily solved all the issues and I have a feeling of pleasant tiredness."
Tanya
The Lucky Hunter Leader
"If there is an accepted offer!" :)
Valeria
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"The candidate accepted the offer, which means that he/she will soon become part of the team of one of our cool client companies. Don't hesitate, we have only cool clients - as cool as Lucky Hunter!"
Maria
The Lucky Hunter IT Researcher
"I don't understand what the phrase" come home from work "means. Where is it?"
Polina
An independent Lucky Hunter Content Manager (working remotely), whose opinion no one asked.
What is the most common question from candidates?
"Do you have a remote position? No? What's if I find it?"
Daria
The Lucky Hunter Lead Recruiter
"Where did you get my email?"
Alina
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"Do you need my other social media profiles besides LinkedIn? Here is, for example, my Instagram account."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"How much are you going to pay?"
Tanya
The Lucky Hunter Leader
"What is the salary range? Do you have a remote position?"
Valeria
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"Candidates are fond of asking where we've found their email address. It's too late, dear. You've had to hide your email address on LinkedIn and Habr earlier!"
Maria
The Lucky Hunter IT Researcher
"The recruiter asks the questions here!"
Полина
An independent Lucky Hunter Content Manager, whose opinion no one asked.
We've included the next question for a reason. This is the "pain" of IT recruiters, which the Lucky Hunter specialists are going to generously solve right now!
How do you make a candidate reply to your email?
"Write "good afternoon, Bill! "Instead of "good afternoon, Will!""
Maria
The Lucky Hunter IT Researcher
"You need to write a false name (preferably of the opposite sex), and then write a letter of apology, saying that, of course, you know the correct name, it happened by chance, but the opening is still relevant." :)
Alina
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"Write the hypnotizing phrase 'Answer the email' in barely visible type to make it act like the subliminal message."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"Send a sad smiley and feel sad yourself."
Daria
The Lucky Hunter Lead Recruiter
"Find where he/she lives" =)
Tanya
The Lucky Hunter Leader
"I usually write the magic:" I still don't lose hope for your answer! "Works perfectly" :)
Valeria

"I'm a girl, I don't write first!"
Polina

And a million-dollar question: I've chosen the profession of an IT recruiter, because….
"I wanted to be closer to the tech sphere, but I'm a humanitarian."
"I chose the profession of an IT recruiter because I like to surf people's social networks and see what they do there."
Katya
The Lucky Hunter IT Recruiter
"This profession has chosen me."
Daria
The Lucky Hunter Lead Recruiter
"There is no better profession!"
Tanya

"IT-recruiting is something incredible. You are engaged in a business that you not only enjoy and appreciate, but it also brings significant benefits, because you help professionals find each other. Isn't that great?"
