Episode 3: Inside the Mind of a Recruiter with Chris Murdock

Recruiting services are a powerful resource in any job search and today we get the inside scoop from master-recruiter, Chris Murdock! Chris is the Chief Sourcing Officer and Co-Founder of IQTalent Partners, and we chat with him about starting the company, the events in his career leading up to it, and the lessons he has learned along the way. Throughout today's conversation, Chris shares heavy-hitting advice and tips, from best practices for resumes and cover letters, to interview preparation and following up. We also cover some red flags, with our guest weighing in on his pet peeves and how to avoid getting sifted out of a pile of candidates. One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is the emphasis that Chris places on relevance; he uses this as a great guiding tool for ranking applications, urging applicants to stick to what is relevant in their communications and with regards to the positions they apply for.
