How are Advice selection processes conducted?
In each case we preselect the most suitable candidates on the basis of the profile (education, experience, among other elements) sought by the client. These short-listed candidates are called for an initial personal interview to ensure that the proposal matches the interests of the candidate. The next step consists in personal interviews of all short-listed candidates with the client, and the number of interviews at this stage will depend on the client. This process includes a psychological-technical evaluation, as part of the service ADVICE provides to clients.
Is it advisable to include a photograph in the CV?
Yes, it is advisable to use photographs in the CVs. Remember photographs should be formal, and preferably taken for this specific purpose.
After an interview, do you provide notice if a candidate has not been selected?
During the first stages of the process, the candidate may follow up on their application on the web, as the selection process advances, the recruiter will contact the candidate directly to provide feedback on each case.
