3. What is Recruitment?
The process of identifying, attracting,
interviewing, selecting, hiring, and
onboarding employees are known as
Recruitment. It’s entirely depending on the
size of an organization.
Recruitment is the responsibility of a
range of workers. Larger Companies or
organizations may have teams of
recruiters, while others only a single
recruiter. In small organizations, the hiring
manager may be responsible for
recruiting. In addition, many organizations
outsource recruiting to outside firms.
4. Look Inside before Outside
There is a good chance the best candidate
for your position is already working for your
own company or organization. Internal
candidates are already familiar, and
contributing to your corporate culture and
goals. Given their past success within your
organization, it is reasonable to expect they
will continue to excel in a new position.
5. Reach out to passive candidates
There is a good chance your ideal candidate is not
actively looking for a new job and will not respond
to your job board advertisement Why? Because
they’re likely already employed elsewhere. After all,
why wouldn’t your competitors also want to
employ your ideal candidate? Therefore, effective
recruiting requires you to look outside of your
applicant pool for top talent.
6. Encouraging your staff to attend industry
conferences and participate in professional
organizations, developing relationships with local
university business schools or other relevant
departments searching social media sites (i.e.
LinkedIn) for strong resumes from candidates who
might not be actively looking for a new job, and
encouraging your employees to refer people they
know or are connected to are all important
mechanisms through which to expand your
recruitment network.
7. Hire the sure thing
According to two authors and experts, you should
hire a person who is already excelling in doing the
exact job in your industry. Past success, in other
words, is the best indicator of future success.
8. Boomerang employees
Rehiring past employees is gaining popularity.
Known as boomerang employees, these are
people who worked well and good at a company
but then left on good terms for a myriad of
reasons.
Employers are seeing the value of rehiring them
because they know their abilities and the
employee knows and fits into the company
culture.
9. Bringing a boomerang employee back on board reduces
time to hire, eliminates the risk of a bad hire, and reduces
the cost per hire.
10. Recruitment events
For big companies or organizations planning expansion,
recruitment events are perfect for attracting the type of
people you need for job. Events can range from hosting
open days to being at job fairs, holding a hackathon and
graduate recruitment campus drives.
To ensure that you get the best ROI, you must know
precisely what type of candidate you want to attract and
what your employer value proposition is.
