5. Recruitment Strategies
Ask candidates about goals
Ask questions that give you a clear idea of the extent to which a
candidate's five-year goals align with those of your company.
This is more about the interview process than the recruitment
process.Retention and Training
Talented employees frequently cite two reasons for their
departure from a company: a higher salary or more career
opportunities elsewhere. Companies with successful retention
programs focus on expanding training opportunities in house--
and then tying these training opportunities back to
compensation. Companies should also solicit employee input
when devising career development and training programs.
Use global resources
Draw upon the company's global resources to promote in-house
advancement opportunities.
Training seminars that take place in other cities or countries can
be great ways for employees to build skills while staying with
the company.
Offer job rotation
Job rotation can keep employees interested in their work and
expose them to all aspects of the company's operation. This is
one way to "re-recruit" employees.
Link career and promotion
Establish a career development path that is integrated with a
track for merit-based promotion.
Invest in working conditions
Making small investments in working conditions, such as
keeping air-conditioners in good working order, or providing
showers, can go a long way toward maintaining employee

Internal recruitment strategies are part of the process but also
need to consider external.
