As a leading talent management consulting firm who specializes in Sales, Marketing and Operations recruiting ? a crucial step candidates typically miss is spending time upfront BEFORE applying to a job. We’re showing you exactly how to tailor your resume to get passed the screening process.
Companies often ask us for hiring and recruiting advice ? everything from the job description, to retention & onboarding. We find there is usually room for improvement in all steps of the hiring process, and it’s surprising how a little change can achieve significantly better results. The great news is: we’re here to help!
As one of San Diego’s leading talent management consulting and recruiting firms, we know firsthand the importance of hiring right ? the first time. To encourage the best hiring practices, we’ve pointed out five items that the top hiring managers are doing ? to ensure the right hire ? the first time.
The final part of finding the right-fit candidate is all about screening for culture fit. It’s a critical step – and the great news is – it can be done early in the hiring process – starting with the job description/ad! As a company, knowing WHY you’re in business, and not just what you do is the best way to identify your company culture.
How can the job description/ad sound LESS like a job and MORE like an opportunity? SIMPLE: Shift your focus from the HAVES to the DOS. Instead of having a checklist of what someone needs to HAVE for a job, focus on what someone has to DO to be successful in a job. Top talent will only leave their current roles for an opportunity ? not just a job . Those employees want to be challenged ? they desire to learn something new. A successful job description/ad outlines the opportunity throughout the entire ad.
The best practices in the hiring process start with creating an effective job description. A simple shift in your job description/job ad can dramatically alter the results you’re seeing, from 5%-10% of your applicant pool being quality to 50% or more! Here is part 1 of our 3 part series where we’re going to teach you how to attract top talent starting from the job description.
