Preparation
How does the candidate research a company, understand a role, and explain a relevant reason for their interest?
FOR EMPLOYERS · OPTIONAL HIRING INVOLVEMENT
Get to know people through their work.
Meet candidates who are practicing research, communication, relationship-building, and follow-through. Explore hiring when a real role and a person’s qualifications fit.
A CLEARER VIEW OF POTENTIAL
Look for evidence you can discuss.
Communication
Can they connect real experience to an employer’s needs, ask useful questions, and listen carefully?
Follow-through
How do they organize next steps, respond to feedback, and keep professional commitments?
The Academy teaches a career-search approach using sales strategy. It does not replace role-specific technical qualifications, your selection process, or the training an employer provides after hiring.
HOW HIRING INVOLVEMENT WORKS
Start with a real opportunity.
- Describe the role. Share the responsibilities, essential qualifications, location, compensation structure, and hiring timeline.
- Agree on participation. Discuss appropriate opportunities to meet candidates or share role information with the re:WORK team.
- Use your hiring process. Evaluate candidates against the actual requirements. Provide useful feedback where possible.
- Keep the relationship clear. Employers make hiring decisions. No candidate is promised an interview, offer, or referral by participating.
HIRING IS ONE WAY TO PARTICIPATE
You can partner without an open role.
Employee volunteering and sponsorship support career access whether or not your company is hiring. Companies that choose the Hiring Partner designation agree to the recruiting activities described on our partnership page, such as sharing roles, a phone screen, and interview feedback. No company is required to make a hire.
Discuss the scope and any applicable terms with the team before committing. Read the current partnership structure.
YOUR NEXT STEP
