FYI Series - 001: Ideal Candidate Profiles

In order to refer candidates as a Mole you must ensure your ideal candidate profile is complete.

To check whether your Ideal Candidate is complete find your Mole Profile on the Meet Our Moles and click on the Ideal Candidate button - you'll see this:

If any of the fields say 'To be completed' you must login and update before you can receive invites to refer and get the most out of TheCareerMole.com.

Benefit of IC Profiles to Moles:

• Once complete you can be contacted by potential candidates who you could potentially refer to your employer


• Reduce the number of unsuitable candidate introductions you receive by enabling The Mole to automatically match certain fields on the Candidate's CV against your Ideal Candidate Profile - if they don’t match the candidate is automatically rejected


• Increase the relevance and suitability of Candidate introductions you receive by adding more detail to your IC Profile and give candidates the information they need to objectively evaluate their chances of success, before they contact you

Benefit of IC Profiles to Candidates:

• Gain an insight into the minimum requirements and skills you must have to be successful at a company, and its individual departments, written by people actually doing the job


• Increase your chances of being accepted by Moles by carefully reading their IC Profile and ensuring you are a good match


• Don’t waste your Contact Credits - only contact Moles who are likely to accept your introduction

Hope that is useful. So in summary: Moles - make sure you login and complete your Ideal Candidate Profile; Candidates make sure you read the Ideal Candidate Profiles before contacting Moles!

Happy Referring!

...Everyones 'unfair advantage!'

Are you unhappy??

... More coverage today of TheCareerMole.com in The Daily Telegraph; London Metro; Sky News Online & PersonnelToday.com which featured the results of our survey and our 'League of Disillusion' that shows across Britain a quarter of employees, or 7.1m, say their job is not what they expected. Londoners are the most likely to be trapped in jobs compared with the rest of the country, around 1.9 million - 29% - say their job does not live up to expectations.

TheCareerMole.com will fix this by enabling job hunters to speak directly to insiders - Moles - in leading companies, who can help job hunters make informed career decisions about companies and roles, before they apply, via 'Mole Referral'. We call it everyone's unfair advantage!

If your company has an employee referral scheme you can register as a Mole and make a difference to these statistics - and you may be eligible for referral rewards from your employer too!
