Hi All,
Normally we have two options for recruiting in a company -
a. On the basis of Formal Credentials
b. and on Experience
Today I read a blog post by Zoho founder (Zoho is now a very renowned brand competing with Google online products. Blog post http://blogs.zoho.com/general/how-we-recruit-on-formal-credentials-vs-experience-based-education/) sharing his experience in recruiting for the company.
Actually they re-programmed their companies recruitment process to concentrate their efforts in finding and developing experience based human resource.
Considering we are not recruiting for Infosys, Wipro and other big companies -
a. Which one of these two (Credentials vs Experience) works the best for small and mid size companies?
b. and, if you don’t look at formal credentials, what do you actually look at? (as questioned in the blog post)
Couple of lines from the post -
"we don’t really value fancy degrees and famous schools. He was surprised - perhaps because of my own educational background. "
"Based on a few years of observation, we noticed that there was little or no correlation between academic performance, as measured by grades & the type of college a person attended, and their real on-the-job performance. That was a genuine surprise, particularly for me, as I grew up thinking grades really mattered."
