If you are still collecting applications over the counter, creating complex spreadsheets to store data, struggling to manage the outflow of communication and juggling between manual downloads and uploads, you may need to upgrade your recruitment processes!
To help you out, here are 5 signs that signify an upgrade in your process…
Storing data on physical sheets of paper or spreadsheets is a thing of the past, but many recruiters still organise paperwork using this method. Not only does this mean that looking for data takes longer, but also that the entire process becomes more tiresome for everyone involved.
The biggest challenge faced by hiring managers is filtering candidates to find the right fit from hundreds of applications received in every job category. Screening the best candidates from a pile of unwanted applications can take up a massive chunk of precious time.
A slow, disjointed recruitment process can drive top talent away so if you are still stuck using traditional recruitment tools and techniques, you may be pushing your potential employees away.
There’s heavy competition between companies today, each trying to impress job seekers and build a reputation as a great employer. To attract the best candidates you need to have a branded career site and an influential social presence.
Finding the right employee for a position takes time, and research suggests that it is taking longer and longer for companies to hire. However, all too often, extended hiring times are a sign of a broken hiring process. Quality hiring can happen quickly with the right tools and resources, and the sooner you get new talent to work the sooner you can start reaping the rewards of your efforts.
