Employee recruitment requires due diligence and a personal touch
When businesses are expanding and leaders think it's time to bring on additional staff, there are a number of factors to consider. Business 2 Community explains that small companies should be particularly cautious when it comes to hiring additional workers, since each new employee adds to overhead costs that cut into their bottom lines.
Rather than diving in headfirst, the source advises human resources leaders should consider the costs and ensure tasks can't be divvied up another way to handle the workload. When they are certain they need more hands to complete the work, recruiters should practice due diligence, interviewing more than one candidate and making sure that prospect has the necessary skills (or potential) and will fit into their companies' culture.
Timing is another crucial factor when it comes to successful employee recruitment, according to Recruitment New York. The source reports that many businesses take too long to hire, which can stagnate their employment pipeline, while others make hiring decisions too soon. Bringing on candidates before they have properly been screened can lead to mistakes and wasted resources.
Additionally, recruiters need to make sure they are painting an accurate picture of their work environments and the benefits they offer, explains Forbes. Technology companies have become good at highlighting the unique benefits they offer as a way to portray their values and workplace norms.
