FYI:
Peter Marinilli, CEO of Target Consulting Group, LLC, discusses the delicate nature of downsizing in Downsizing Dilemmas, (free subscription required) an article featured in the June 2007 issue of Selling Power Magazine. In it, Marinilli advisers managers on how to approach the issue truthfully and tactfully with both current employees and potential new hires.
Marinilli highlights the key points of the article in his blog, offering advice gathered directly from his experience hiring sales representatives. Massachusetts-based professional sales recruitment firm Target Consulting has over 13 years of experience as a permanent job placement agency. New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Massachusetts companies have all found successful interview candidates and new hires through Target's in-depth screening and recruiting process.
Marinilli stresses the importance of being upfront and honest about why you are downsizing with all parties involved. Current employees need to know in what direction the company is moving, and what that means for them, whether you are shifting the focus of your company or venturing in a new direction. Interview candidates want to be reassured that they are entering into a stable and successful work environment.
In either case, a selective hiring policy will save you valuable time and money. When hiring sales representatives while downsizing, Marinilli advocates a thorough pre-screening process that ensures you spend time interviewing only the most qualified applicants.
Target selective recruiting process has helped them become a top permanent job placement agency for the New England area and nationwide. Target uses in-depth face-to-face interviews, detailed personality profiles and thorough candidate debriefings to select the best matches for your company, supported by a money-back guarantee.
Marinilli offers an overview of the article on the Target Consulting blog, along with other news and advice on hiring sales representatives.

Deep Release:
Top UK Companies Win Awards for Employee Benefits Strategies
A few examples of how benefits are being used to help implement corporate strategy and achieve long-term business goals.
Bank of America, National Express, McDonald's Restaurants and Siemens are among the many winners at the Employee Benefits Awards 2007.
Amanda Wilkinson, editor of Employee Benefits, said: "Strategy around employee benefits has certainly now come of age. No longer is the management of perks consigned to a far and distant corner of the human resources department. It is a subject that is now taken seriously by senior management, not only within the HR department, but also at board level."
This is apparent among the entries to the Employee Benefits Awards 2007. In one particular case at Qinetiq, winners of the 'Most effective all-employee share scheme strategy', the chief executive took time out of his hectic schedule to front up a series of presentations to staff about the new all employee share schemes, which were being launched alongside the flotation of the technology company.
Elsewhere, at National Express, winners of 'Most effective benefits strategy for organisations with more than 1,000 employees', management recognised that benefits were a key component of an HR strategy designed to reduce staff turnover and boost employee engagement, both factors which impact on productivity and, in turn, income and profit.
These are only a few examples of how benefits are being used to help implement corporate strategy and achieve long-term business goals.
A number of new categories, such as 'Benefits team of the year' and 'Most effective employer and adviser partnership', have been added this year to help celebrate the work that the benefits team and their advisers have put into preparing a benefits strategy. The human resources reward team at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group (RBS) scooped 'Benefits team of the year' for how they maximised cross-functional resources across the bank's departments in order to implement a new pension scheme to sit alongside the RBS Group final salary plan and provided for the new plan within its flexible benefits package RBSelect. The RBS Group also won 'Most effective employer and adviser partnership' along with advisers Towers Perrin, for work on the new pension scheme.
"Congratulations must go to all those that made it to the final shortlist and let us join together to celebrate the worthy winners," said Wilkinson.
Details of the 2008 Employee Benefits Awards will be announced in October 2007.
