“It is a pleasure to provide a professional recommendation for Mike Baker. Since joining our team last November, Mike has established himself as a rising star with both Convergys and OnStar. His recruiting "instincts" and organizational skills are top-notch, and the quality of his candidates has "raised the bar" at our facility. In addition, Mike has taken it upon himself to address and correct a number of IT-related issues for new hires (who might otherwise be struggling with the Service Request process). Over the course of the last year, Mike has served as acting Recruiting Manager on at least a half-dozen occasions, allowing me to host off-site job fairs (and, in one case, work at a sister site in North Carolina for a full week); I was always comfortable knowing that the account was being well-managed in my absence. I look forward to a long and prosperous relationship between Mike, myself and Convergys/OnStar.”

What is the best way to address a candidate who is not meeting the position requirements?
It's always most important to be both tactful yet honest in your response when declining someone. Always be mindful that you represent your organization in this response, and anything written can be discoverable for litigation purposes. For this reason, an actual phone call is best practice. This is more personable anyway, and can also offer more added value to the candidate (what they are missing, need to improve, etc.). Above all, people want validation for their efforts, and this provides them not only that, but something to work toward. Their candidate experience will absolutely be better than just a canned 'auto response' that most people unfortunately are used to receiving. It'll make your company more memorable as well.
