Are the unemployed unemployable?

 

The saying goes simply that it's easier to get a job if you've already got one - but exactly how much truth lays in that statement? Being in employment says a few things about a candidates personality; This person is employable, at least by someones standards! And whoever employed them doesn't seem in any rush to give them the sack. Also this person is most likely interested in your company rather chasing any old work and therefore less likely to have applied for every vacancy in the area. A candidate with a firm idea of what they want to do will have done the research, and can explain to you whey they want your better job than the one they currently work.What about the advantages from a candidate point of view? You can escape the awkward questions about why you're unemployed, what happened in your last job, what you've been doing whilst out of work... you know the ones - the grillings that makes you squirm. You're probably less nervous than the unemployed candidate - after all, you've already got a job. Confidence can do wonders for your body language, eye contact and general mannerisms.
