I have been a recruiter for 5 years now. Being a recruiter is a great feeling. I wanted to capture in this thread the challenges faced by various recruiters in hiring the right talent for the right job.
I will start with mine:
1. Though our country has plenty of talent, skilled resources are still scarce. Filtering two candidates for a job from a candidate database of 1000 is a great challenge.
2. You finalize a candidate for an interview, schedule an interview, and many times candidates do not show up for the interviews. They call you and give all possible reasons.
I leave the rest to be added by my co-members of CiteHR. I know you carry more experience and knowledge than I do.
Thanks,

Candidate turns up for an interview but rejects the offers (as salary negotiation was not made).
Candidate accepts the offer but due to a long notice period, he backs out and joins another company.
Universal challenge..... :(

Here are a few points:
- First of all, it is difficult to match the job description with the bunch of resumes.
- Recruiters face problems in finding the right candidate due to various organizational differences, cultural differences, and attitudes.
- The main challenge for the recruiter is that he/she should be able to relate the job description to the resumes of the candidates. This is time-consuming and complex.
- If you are sourcing from the internet, you will get thousands of resumes for a single position. To reduce the wastage of your time, you can use various search strings to find specific resumes.
