Mohan’s musing: Reverse logistics…..in situation and at times it makes logical sense

He was busy interviewing a candidate with utmost intensity and interest and I had to wait for more than an hour.

“This must be some interview for a senior or key position” I inquired breaking ice.

His response stumped me and I stayed stuck with his statement. “Actually we don’t have a slot for him; he was keen to explore an option with us and came over on his own. I found his profile very interesting. I need to speak to my MD to see how we can sculpt the structure and try getting him on board”   

Being in HR I was curious to know further and his philosophy on talent Acquisition caught my imagination and has stayed entrenched deep within.

Long time back, I came across a quote like statement” Don’t find customers for your product find product for your customers” Since then I have been laterally applying this philosophy in my job.

“Most of our leadership and key resources have not been recruited because we needed to fill the slot, more because they reached out to us and we accommodated them in our structure.

WoW…. Take a Bow!
