Q: I am happy to get the interview, but with COVID-19 keeping everyone at home, this insurance company has scheduled a video interview. Can you give me advice on how to excel during this interview?

OrlandoJobs.com is excited to present our first-ever live virtual job fair where job seekers have the opportunity to schedule a video interview with employers directly on August 11-12.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - OrlandoJobs.com Virtual “Live” Job Fair takes place on August 11th and 12th and features technology that will allow Central Florida job seekers to schedule live video interviews with over 60 employers

This event will feature over 30 employers who are currently hiring during COVID-19. Selected employers will have “live” recruiters.

My fear is job seekers will wait until their unemployment runs out to start looking for jobs. This will cause mass job seeker desperation, and any openings at this time will get tons of applicants.

Employers are starting to think about the next steps for post-COVID-19 hiring. Our Central Florida employer survey last month clearly showed that many people had been furloughed while waiting for the go-ahead sign to get back to normal.

OrlandoJobs.com surveyed fifty-eight Central Florida companies to find out who is hiring during COVID-19 and what challenges human resource professionals are experiencing.

OrlandoJobs.com Hire Day Orlando Virtual Job Fair, which began on March 27th, has been extended to April 30th.

I am in the middle of interviewing candidates for a sales account manager. Like many companies (all sizes), it is very reasonable for the recruiter or human resource professional to call a potential candidate and do an initial phone interview. Seven out of ten phone interviews I had this week didn't go well, and this has inspired me to write this article.  

Anything that potentially disrupts the recruiting process will certainly go through all kinds of scrutiny, especially if it is going to eliminate humans. The bottom line with most of the concerns questions whether any artificial intelligence or machine learning is "learning" and acting on the biases already present in a company's recruiting process.

The 3rd Annual Hire Day Orlando will take place at the Amway Center in downtown Orlando on March 27, 2020.

In helping many companies with job marketing strategy, one of the best ways to increase applications is to treat each job your posting like its own website. For example, at OrlandoJobs.com, you have the ability to make your job posting stand out by adding pictures, your social media, video, employment brand, and employee testimonials.
