Talentsconnect CEO and co-founder Robin Sudermann regularly writes about the recruiting of the future in his column “A Question of Attitude” at Human Resources Manager Magazine. The fifth part of his column is about the fact that it is important for companies to convey a realistic and honest picture of their working reality to the outside world in order to be successful in the battle for the best talent.

Companies tend to include a bit thick at one point or another in their job offers. Or, not better, they're hiding something that might scare off. On the one hand, what in the best case scenario results in more applications, on the other hand, can lead to a completely false picture of the company and the reality of work.
Companies must be transparent. One way to become more transparent is to address insights into salary structures and everyday working life in the job advertisement. You'll find out why this is so important here.
