2. Objectives
To implement strategies that will
ensure your recruit the right people
and retain them to match the future
success and growth of your
business.
5. Pre plan your
future recruitment
needs….
An important part of your
strategic planning that
often is neglected until it
is too late!
6. What skill sets do we currently
need and what skill sets do we
potentially need in the future?
Set up a skills knowledge data base recording all of
the skills your current Employees have.
Recruit and promote within before searching
outside!
7. 80% of Jobs are not
advertised and only 20% of
Candidates are actively
looking!
Think out side the
box!
9. Employers need to
“sell” to candidates
why they should want
to work for them!
Up to date and
detailed Position
Descriptions.
Have a list of
benefits available.
Express the true
culture of the
company.
More
information
is better!
Ensure their direct
Manager does the
interviewing and
not HR.
12. How to choose a high
quality Recruiter?
• Has integrity
• Has a strong Network
• Is an industry Specialist
• Boutique is Better
Help!
• Is a search expert
• Does not rely on
advertising for results
• Only works exclusively
13. Human Resources,
Friend or Foe!
The Human Resistance Department has lost its
customer service focus.
Line Managers know what they want and understand
the roles.
Great Recruiters know how to sell the role and your
company to great Candidates!
HR Professionals are NOT Recruiters!
14. Strategies to retain new
and existing staff
Train your managers to be great
managers!
Lead by example!
Motivate staff individually!
Have real performance
appraisals that truly recognise
and reward!
Ask them what they want?
15. Providing only Lip Service to
Staff issues will ensure a
high turnover of your people
and will hurt your reputation.
Then take action...
16. Useful background
checks!
Try to get three references
but two will do.
At least one should be from a
direct Supervisor if possible.
One from a client can be
useful especially for Sales or
Customer Service roles.
