Competency frameworks are reshaping the employee recruitment process
For human resources departments seeking to revamp their employee recruiting techniques to hire the perfect candidate for the job, many companies are turning to competency frameworks.
What is a competency framework? The term describes a process of hiring in which candidates are judged on a combination of specific skills, knowledge, attitudes, experience and potential against an ideal candidate.
Competency frameworks allow HR departments to better align the hiring process with the reality of the business, its expectations and its needs, the website LiveMint explains. However, companies should recognize that their competency frameworks are in constant evolution, shifting in relation to the economy and political marketplace.
"The competencies required in turbulent times may be subtly different from those required in times of peace," the source explains. "Outdated frameworks are white elephants, urging human capital systems to march to discarded beats."
When first creating a competency framework, businesses should reflect on their current and future goals and the individuals most likely and necessary to help achieve them.
