Recruiting Strategy
(September 12, 2005)
In a world driven by infinite novelty, it's difficult to keep the nose to the grindstone. However, Strategy is a
key consideration that must be kept in the forefront.
Another word for strategy is "cost effective planning".
The key elements of a Recruiting Strategy include:
- A clear picture of current and future staffing requirements (five years is a good horizon line)
- An assessment of the skills, demographics and workload requirements of current employees
- A solid definition of regional expansion plans
- Training Requirements for Recruiting competency
- Established communications patterns for hiring decision making
- Clear criteria for hiring decision making
- A clear understanding of regulatory requirements
- A relationship with a team of creative copy writers
- A detailed understanding of current and future marketplace trends
- A process for identifying demographic targets
- A conceptual map of the communications vehicles available for reaching demographic targets
- A compelling story about the reasons this particular workplace is attractive
- A job communications budget
- A plan to measure the effectiveness of dollars spent on Recruiting
- A database in which to collect data about potential employees
- The ability to match job requirements against potential employees
- A clear understanding of the supply-demand dynamics in the regions that will be recruited
- Hiring Timeline objectives and a system to measure performance
- A formal "vetting" process for new vendors
In other words, the development of a coherent Recruiting Strategy involves coming to a series of conclusions about sources and objectives. By leaps an bounds, technology and its implementation runs a distant second to questions that concern recruiting volume.
