tasks list - What separated the candidate, you initially selected from all the other resumes presented?
New position.
WHAT TYPES OF STAFFING CHALLENGES OR HEADACHES HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED IN THE PAST?
• Resumes that include extensive details for candidates with limited actual experience.
Especially, with candidates who may have participated on "many" projects but were not required to implement a project from start to finish or provide significant contribution to the project.
• Recruiters submitting multiple, clearly unqualified candidates
• Candidates are unable to prepare and deliver a coherent presentation as part of the interview process.
• Resumes that exceed two pages (2-4) make it difficult to review timely.
Notes to recruiters:
• Previous experience in health care related information technology, insurance information technology, Medicaid Management Information Systems (MMIS), Medicaid eligibility, or social services eligibility, while not necessary, will be helpful.
• This position requires excellent communications skills including effective oral and written communication. If a vendor finds it necessary to substantially revise a candidate's resume or add additional or clarifying information at the top of the candidate's resume, then the resume is not yet ready for submission, and the candidate will likely not be a good fit.
• Resumes submitted should be limited to two pages (2-4).
