Remote Working or Work from Home (WFH) is the need of hour during these days. The pandemic has taken a toll on everyone be it an individual, a business, or a country. The unwelcomed advent of this virus has shifted many businesses to work remotely to maintain social distancing. Now, one of the main concerns of recruiters is to know how they can hire someone for new vacancies that best suit this working environment. So, here are a few things which can help you decide as a recruiter:
- Dedication
Remote Job is quite different from working in an office. It is quite important for the candidate to have the dedication to make things done as there can be many distractions during remote working.
- Smooth Communicator
The person you are considering for the job should very well know how to express and articulate his/her concerns to make things happen without any error. The candidate should be vigilant enough to make sure there isn’t any communication gap.
- Problem Solver
Although, every job requires this skill but in a remote job it matters a lot. There can be many issues in this way of working such as any emergency, any technological issue, or simply a human error; the candidate should know how to deal with these things smoothly.
- Trustable
The person in question should be honest and trust-worthy as you cannot always see what is happening on the other side of the screen like you can in an office. There should be a transparent link i.e. trust between the organization and the candidate.
