chapter FOUR Right People: Designing Recruiting and Staffing Processes
Running a successful business depends on having the right people in the right roles to effectively execute its strategies. The most important decision a company makes about its employees is to hire them. Every other action made about employees is a direct result of that initial decision to bring them into the organization.
Despite the strategic importance of hiring, many companies have treated recruiting as a largely administrative process.1 Rather than focusing on the business value associated with hiring, recruiters often focus on increasing the number of job requisitions processed, with little emphasis on how the newly hired people perform after they join the company. As one person put it, “HR departments that focus on number of hires instead of quality of hires might as well measure effectiveness by the kilos of people they've employed.” Fortunately, the growing influence of strategic HR is steadily changing the focus from quantity to quality of hiring. This is the result of several factors:
• Scarcity of skilled talent. Experienced recruiters know there is always a limited supply of qualified high performers available to fill skilled jobs at the salary companies want to pay them. This skill shortage is growing due to the increasing complexity of jobs, decreasing birth rates in many countries, and more intensive competition for talent around the globe.2 Do not be fooled by overall unemployment statistics. There may be more people available in the job market in general, but that does not mean they are people who have the skills and competencies needed to support your company's strategies.
• Cost of labor. As the supply of skilled labor decreases, its cost increases. Companies cannot afford to make hiring mistakes given how much it costs to bring people into the organization. There is also the insidious problem of hiring marginal performers and having them stay. In many countries, it is both difficult and costly to fire someone for underperformance.
• Importance of human capital. The past thirty years have seen a steady shift from a resource-based to a knowledge- and service-based economy. In today's market, competitive advantage depends less on what companies own and more on whom they employ. Your company's ability to hire skilled, high-performing employees simultaneously supports the goals of your business while depriving your competitors of the talent they may need to compete against you.
Recruiting was once seen as a back-office function that was often outsourced as a commodity service. It is now becoming a key differentiator in the emerging war for talent. Winning this war requires rethinking key questions around what makes a good recruiting process.

Control: Feeling like you have little or no control over your work Delineate what is and what is not a part of the job
Reward: Lack of recognition or reward for good work Define what success looks like for the position

51. Pay Equity: Why
Job Descriptions
Are Important
• Inaccurate job descriptions are an obstacle to
pay equity
• Substantially similar work is the standard based
on a composite of:
• Responsibilities/Essential Functions
• Knowledge, Skills and Abilities
• Effort
Tools to expose hidden pay gaps
• Quantitative Analysis – Similarity scoring
• Qualitative Analysis – Side-by-side review
of cohorts

52. Debiasing-
Impact of Bias in
Job Descriptions
• Discourages candidates
who think the job is “not
for them”
• Narrows applicant pool
56. Recruiting: Skills-
Based Job Postings
Less weight on education and experience
because doing so:
• Drastically expands the talent pool
• By including those without degrees
• By adding in those with experience gaps or
frequent job changes
Education level does not guarantee skills

59. Wrap Up
• The economy is expected to contract in
2023; however, the long-term issue we need
to confront is the labor shortage
• Get your job descriptions in order so that they
can address talents’ need for transparency,
flexibility, career growth, fair compensation,
engagement and relief of burnout
• Use power tools to understand the work that
people do and how it fits into your
organization
• Increase the effectiveness of your recruiting
efforts by creating job postings that expand
the talent pool with candidates who have
the capacity for success
