All parts of recruitment process went smoothly, no complications at all. We agreed on business terms and conditions, I started to search, made advertisment, found interesting candidates, implemented a few cycles of interviews and testing, chose two best candidates and recommened them to a client.
Client agreed, but wanted to see both of them before. No surprise. My attendace was not desired. No surprise, again. Despite this fact I enforced meeting directly after the interviews, where I wanted to go through client's feelings and impressions from candidates. I was also curious, which one will my clients prefer and what's the reason for his choice.
It was a big luck we met again with my client. He told me his impression from the first candidate, which was not the best, and was determined to choose the second one. I was listening carefully and then pointed out some "details", which my client didn't take account of: for example the place of living of both candidates, costs of transportation etc. At the end, the client changed his mind and decided to take the first candidate on.
