Recruiting the right people today

Recruiting the right people in today’s market can be tough. 

Reimagine Work offers inclusive and agile partial and full-cycle recruitment services to help leaders with the hiring heavy lifting. 

But how do we find the right candidates? Here are some of our effective strategies that can help you build a stellar team. 

Define the Ideal Candidate

The first step in hiring is to clearly define the ideal candidate for the role. This involves identifying the necessary skills, experience, and qualifications required for the position. If you could dream the perfect hire, what would that look like?

If you don’t know what you are looking for when you start, how can you know if you find the right person?

Create a Job Posting to Catch that Ideal Candidate’s Eye

A well-crafted job posting plays a vital role in attracting qualified candidates. It should communicate the job's responsibilities, requirements, and the company’s values and culture.

Your ideal candidate should read it and think hey, that’s me!” 

Leveraging Multiple Sourcing Channels

To widen the pool of potential candidates, your business should explore multiple sourcing channels. 

This includes traditional methods, like job boards and referrals, and more modern methods, like online platforms, social media, and professional networks. 

Diversifying sourcing channels increases the chances of reaching a broader and more diverse talent pool.

(We know that head-hunting is not for everyone. We can absolutely take care of this for you.)

Screening and Selection Process

The screening and selection process is where the company separates the promising candidates from the rest. Implementing effective screening techniques, like resume review, phone screenings, and skills assessments, help identify the most qualified individuals. Establishing a structured interview process, including behavioural and situational questions, enables better evaluation of candidates' abilities and cultural fit.

Building a stellar team starts with effective hiring practices. By defining the ideal candidate, crafting compelling job advertisements, leveraging multiple sourcing channels, and having strong screening processes can assemble a team that drives success. 

Remember, hiring is an ongoing process that requires continuous improvement and adaptation to meet the ever-evolving needs of the company.
