Need help with recruiting and hiring?

A proper, updated job description is a hiring road map to success for the candidate, team, department and the entire company. I will provide you with a job description starter and assist you with getting it right. Why? So we can recruit and hire the right person, and then hold them accountable for their job duties.

The job ad should be an enticing yet honest advertisement not just the job description copied and pasted. That is not recruiting!  What are the hours, benefits, and work environment? Who will the candidate work with and where? Why pick me? Your job ad must be a true marketing piece.  In many jobs, you can hire for attitude and train for skill.

Waiting for the dream candidate to apply is not recruiting - especially in a job market where finding good, qualified help is very difficult. You need to find candidates who might not be actively looking for a new job but are interested in the right opportunity.  

Together we will create a simple scorecard that allows the interviewing team to be fair and consistent in the hiring process. The scorecard will rank the must-have and nice to have knowledge, skills and abilities and also include the company values. Why hiring someone who doesn't fit the company culture? 

Candidates will be pre-screened online, with a few go/ no-go questions pre-determined. The HR Lady will conduct virtual interviews and provide you with interview questions as well as the notes of the virtual interviews so your interview team can prepare for the in-person interviews. I can also prep your managers on interviewing do's/ don'ts.

The selection and hiring process team will use the scorecard. This will remove unintentional bias from the process while choosing the best candidate for the job.  You want the person who has the knowledge, skills, abilities and the right attitude that is necessary to be succesful at your company, long term.
