Sometimes we face high-pressure situations where we need to fill roles urgently due to project deadlines or unexpected vacancies. How do you manage and execute hiring effectively during such high-pressure situations?

In an ideal situation, you will have some passive candidates that you’ve already met, or at least done some proactive market mapping. If not, often our clients use our interim offering, where we can place individuals (from ICs up to executives) for durations as short as 1-2 weeks up to 6-9 months. This gives you breathing room to find your permanent placement.

Would be able to let know what challenges you are facing?

/ Make sure job description and hiring manager's expectations are aligned
/ Setup scalable interview process
/ Make sure interviewer are all trained
/ Included other teams if current team is stretched thin
/ Setup weekly checkins
/ Ideally hiring manager are aware of those tight deadlines and proactively open the role unless someone leaves unexpectedly
/ Get hiring manager to review resume to move fast
/ Add sourcing support if possible or use external agency (will come at high cost)
/ Market mapping talent to make sure you are looking for talent in right market
/ If you are hiring for many roles, set superday sort of event

Hi everyone,

I appeared in L2 round of Capgemini recently.
Just after the intro first question they asked me " Do you have any offer and amount?" This question was asked in technical round.
I'm sure that guy wasn't a Manager.

I don't think he know how to take an interview.

Even after creating 2 asked program and answering 80% of their questions correctly.
Got rejected.
Didn't expect this kind of L2 round from Capgemini.

Do you guys talk to chambers for the firm interview?
