#TalentAttraction #Tuesday RECRUITMENT PROCESS IMPROVEMENT? WHAT WORKS AND WHAT DOES NOT WORK?

By RecruiterGuy | December 28, 2021

Why should Hiring Managers involve themselves in Recruitment Process Improvement? If your company is a startup, Sourcing and Recruiting are parts of your responsibility. If your company is a large corporation, recruitment is controlled by Human Resources. Since a Hiring Manager is a client of Human Resources, you should be allowed to team with HR to improve your recruitment results.

What is working?

“Do not throw the baby out with the bathwater” is the appropriate saying to describe Recruitment Process Improvement. Look at your recruiting processes to determine what is working well. Then, determine what processes are not working. For instance, does a Recruiting Coordinator, who never spoke to you about your open position, select the resumes for you to review?

If so, do you feel that process may need improvement?

In your organization, how do you influence change? Are you ready to take responsibility for Talent Attraction for your positions?

Improve One Process At A Time

Measure the results. If the results are improved, focus on another process. Are you losing too many sharp candidates to counteroffers? Why? How is your team handling counteroffers? Do you prepare candidates, who interest you, for a counteroffer? Remember, a person who receives a counteroffer from their current employer has just demonstrated their worth.

Personally, I coach candidates to expect a counteroffer from their current employer early in our conversations. Read this column on my RecruiterGuy.com website on how I address Counteroffers with candidates – www.recruiterguy.com/searching-for-a-job/#counter-offer

My solution to counter a counteroffer has been very effective over the past 40 years.

These Examples Are Only 2 Examples Of Potential Recruitment Process Improvement

Improving the quality of your candidates is the Hiring Manager’s responsibility. Take charge of your business and wrest the responsibility back to where it belongs – with the Hiring Manager.

Recruiting is Not Magic. It is Focused, Hard Work.

Talent Attraction is Better than Talent Acquisition!

If you would like a conversation on how to ATTRACT talent instead of using an Applicant Tracking System or HRIS to screen them out, we should chat. Call me directly at 435-714-4425 (mountain).

My Talent Attraction speeches benefit your Association Membership and your Organizations. Please consider – If my Speech saves your members only ONE Recruitment fee, it has paid for itself.

I am available to consult with your company to improve your Top Talent Attraction strategy. Attracting and integrating Top Talent gives your company an industry edge. The process is worth the effort by improving productivity, innovation, and profitability – Look at Google, Tesla, SpaceX, and Apple. Retaining Top Talent keeps your industry knowledge inside your company – instead of with the competition.

The RecruiterGuy.com Top Talent Attraction business model is my differentiator. I focus on one client at a time and charge a flat monthly fee. This model enables me to attract new talent to your organization while identifying and suggesting improvements to your company’s Talent Attraction process, including Manager Interview Training. https://recruiterguy.com/
