At the most recent Tidewater TechExpo, we presented Top 10 Best Practices in Talent Acquisition for a large group of government contractors doing business in the Fort Belvoir area.
Many job postings in the cleared community are pulled straight from the government contract award. While you can’t change the requirements of the job, you do have some flexibility in how you choose to advertise it. Improve your job postings to meet their full potential with these tips.
We are going to talk to you about the way
companies hire now.
It is outdated. It’s ineffective and quite expensive.
Still based on an old model, poorly translated
into the hyper connected, data-driven world
we live in today. And for professionals, career
decisions are often made on no more than
a job description, few interviews and a hunch.
Employer branding is critical to compete effectively in today’s talent
economy. On LinkedIn, 83% of employers believe their brand has a
signicant impact on their ability to hire great talent, but only one third
of them regularly measure it. With the Talent Brand Index, LinkedIn gives
you a simple metric to quantify and benchmark your talent brand —
and determine how attractive you are to the talent you want to hire.

12 Tips to Build a
Stunning Talent Pipeline
Imagine having a warm candidate slate at your fingertips for your next-hard-to-hire role. Those who
pipeline talent are living that dream (and probably having more lunch breaks than you!). Pipelining
not only saves you and your team from reinventing the wheel for every role, it reduces time to hire
and leads to better quality candidates.
We get that it’s a “chicken-egg” situation. If you’re thinking, “How can I find time to pipeline when I
can’t even find time to adequately source?”, read on. A pipelining strategy will pay off (we promise!).
Here are 12 tips to get you started:
1.
Prioritize where you pipeline
2.
Pre-screen for top performers
3.
Get hiring manager commitment
4.
Stay organized
5.
Treat your pipeline with respect
Focus on skills your business recruits for repeatedly and roles that are hard to fill. This will
increase your chances of filling these roles quickly, reducing cost per hire and time to fill.
Save time: before placing a candidate in your pipeline, find out from mutual connections
whether they are a cultural or performance fit.
The best pipelines are built in partnership with hiring managers. Get buy-in by explaining the
benefits of pipelining in terms they can understand - instead of talking “time to hire” use
metrics such as “getting x people to sales productivity y weeks earlier.”
Create one “source of truth” to keep your team on the same page. Use it to keep track of
candidates contacted, responses, and interest levels.
Consider your pipeline a community, not a database. Respect the candidate’s time by asking
him/her, “How often would you like to touch base?” To deliver what you promise, send
yourself calendar reminders to continue the conversation.
