In recent years, the role of recruiting has become increasingly challenging. There are many changes that have affected the efficiency of recruiters, a few of them being talent shortages, remote-work trends, and economic uncertainty.
Here are our tips for maximizing your recruiting efficiency in 2023.
Quick Tips:
- Define the role focusing on the Top 5 Accountabilities and related skill level
- Behaviors make up 80% of someone’s success in a role; you can train on skills
- Fast and efficient hiring processes help retain candidates’ interest in the role by streamlining the process (3 touches for Manager roles, 2 touches for Hourly roles, then the offer)
Recruiting Strategies
- Develop an organized talent pool. If you’re recruiting for a position similar to one filled previously, reviewing the resume of a person who did well in the role prior and source for that type of talent.
- Build relationships with candidates. This increases engagement in job offers, and allows for better communication.
- Seek referrals. If a candidate declines a job offer, ask if they know anyone who’d be interested.
- Employee referral program. Employees can be your best champions in finding talent.
- Utilize AI. Artificial intelligence has recently become an effective tool for finding qualified candidates through sourcing platforms.
- Search where others are not. Less common sources of talent are recent college graduates, older workers, candidates reentering the workforce, and second-chance hiring.
- Use behavioral strength-based interviewing. This strategy provides “application” insights on the person’s professional capabilities and work behaviors to ensure they fit the role and culture.
