1. How to hire an Account Manager Crafting a compelling job description is a crucial first step in the recruiting process, whether you use a recruiting agency, source candidates yourself, or post job ads. by Amit Thokal

2. Creating an Impressive Job Description Crafting a compelling job description, even if it seems simple, can significantly impact your recruiting success and the quality of candidates you attract. You can explore more sample job descriptions to inspire your own.

3. Discover Relevant Candidates Recruiters can find active job seekers using job sites like Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter and Glassdoor. They would need recruiting tools to find passive job seekers. EasySource's Candidate Discovery Module can instantly surface relevant Account Managers from active, passive, and hidden talent pools based on your job description or simple prompts. With over 1,030,559 job applicants in the US, the Account Manager talent pool is remarkably strong. However, there are only a few active candidates. Recruiters must use passive and latent talents to find relevant candidates who are likely to join the organization.

4. Screen Candidates To avoid missing qualified candidates, EasySource's Candidate Screening Module uses persona-based screening to map the ideal candidate profile and find Account Managers with relevant skills, profiles, and work experience. This screening also ranks candidates based on relevancy to help recruiters prioritize outreach. Most candidate screening tools rely on keywords in profiles or resumes, which can lead to relevant candidates being eliminated or irrelevant ones being filtered in. This approach may miss qualified candidates whose profiles don't have the right keywords.

5. Assess candidates Skill assessments can be used to ensure only qualified candidates get in and that the health of the talent pipeline is robust. They can also help in making faster hiring decisions without bias. EasyAssess offers pre-built and customized adaptive skill assessments that validate Account Managers' technical and workplace skills as well as personality traits. These pre-employment tests create a level playing field so that recruiters can build winning teams with qualified candidates from diverse backgrounds.

6. Interview Candidates Automated video interviews can be a great way to go beyond the resume and learn more about candidates. EasyInterview gives recruiters the edge to hire diverse and exceptional talent from across the globe. Hiring managers can also be involved to make faster hiring decisions.

7. Sample Interview Questions Pretend I'm a prospect. Describe our product or service to me. Tell me about your experience with working with targets. What were they? Did you meet them? How did you perform compared to your team members? Tell me about a time you had to get good at a skill. What did you do to achieve that goal? Tell me about a time you faced a challenge. How did you deal with it, and what motivated you to keep going? What's the last thing you learned that you thought was really interesting?

8. Engage candidates Reaching out to qualified Account Managers and engaging them throughout the hiring process requires recruiters to engage with them 1-on-1. EasySource's Candidate Engagement Module ensures candidates are engaged with highly personalized strategies and messaging across multiple platforms to compel them to join your organization.

9. Conduct reference checks Once you have shortlisted the candidates, verify their work history and performance in previous roles. This step is essential in ensuring the authenticity of their claims and understanding their strengths and areas for development. Also, enquire about the candidate's ability to work effectively within a team and adapt to the company culture as this role required collaboration across multiple teams.

10. Selection and Onboarding An offer letter is important to protect both the employer and the employee. Share a comprehensive offer letter with details like title, duties, salary, benefits, start date, and probationary period. In the onboarding program, introduce the Account Managers to the organization's culture, values, mission, product knowledge, and buyer personas.
