Unique ways of recruiting
- 1. UNIQUE WAYS OF RECRUITING
- 2. BASIC SOURCE OF RECRUITING Job Portals Social Media Employee Referrals
- 3. USE SELF-SELECTION TO FIND OUT WHO'S REALLY INTERESTED you should try adding another layer between resume-submission and the one-to-one interview always by thorough discussion with candidate regarding his interest and reason of Job Change.
- 4. Handpick dream candidates and show them you want them Passive candidates (those who are already employed and not actively job hunting) are most likely to be your dream hires, but you'll never attract them without letting them know how much you want them.
- 5. Actively search profiles on social networking sites Rather than shifting through the hundreds of bad-fit resumes you might get in response to your job post, take the search into your own hands.
- 6. Mapping companies in the Market according to the technologies We need to know companies are basically working on which particular technologies, so that if we get some requirement we can search for the existing or previous employees
- 7. Consider past candidates In the past, you may passed off a good candidate for some reasons– may be due to their salary requirements were too high, or they weren't an ideal for that other position. Whatever the reason, if you think they would be good for this opportunity, it can't hurt to get in touch with them now and see if they're interested.
- 8. Referrals Referrals are excellent sources for great hires.You just have to let people know that you're looking, and maybe offer an incentive to send someone your way. To publicize outside the company, a great way to to spread the word is to include a note in your e- mail signature indicating that you're hiring and what you're looking for.
- 9. Build Your Network All The Time The value of LinkedIn depends on the number and quality of your connections, and the way to build up a great network is to work on it all the time. At its core, your recruiting will still be about good old-fashioned telephone conversations. What LinkedIn provides you with is a massive amount of information about who to call and whom to ask about, making the process much more efficient. Maximize this advantage by building your network every day.
- 10. Talk To The Middle-Men The ability to search for second- and third-degree connections is what makes LinkedIn such a great tool, If any of your second connection profile is relevant which exactly you are looking for ,approach to the mutual person who is in your 1st degree connection and cross check if some how he knows that person, in that case you can attract the candidate saying that your first degree connected person has recommended him for the particular position
- 11. Make Yourself Visible Create a profile for your company and encourage all of your employees to create LinkedIn profiles that link to it. Encouraging your employees to put effort in to creating strong profiles will pay off in at least two ways; you will look more attractive to prospective employees, and your current employees will become another source for leads.
- 12. QC of candidates : Retention and Recruiting go hand in hand: Ask your candidates at the end of the interview “If I met a former boss of yours, and asked to hear just one sentence about you, what would that sentence be?”This will give you an accurate picture of your candidate and by catching them off guard, you can decide if this is the right or wrong candidate for the job.
- 13. The Golden steps of Recruitment 1.Always reply to candidates, even if it is the same message. Include your contact information and information regarding our website. Making a good first impression and personal contact will go along way towards this candidate’s opinion of our company, as well as their friends and contacts opinions! 2. Pipeline: Maintain frequent contact with interested and quality candidates. 3.Stay in contact with candidates who have shown interest but are employed,doing this you are generating your future prospects. 4.Keep to a schedule: Set a calendar appointment to search Monster or any job portal generally we use,every 2 weeks for resumes that are hard to fill positions. Make contact with these candidates through mails even if you do not have any positions open, but expect to in the future. They may be interested in the future, and they may be able to grant you referrals of others in their industry! 5.Recruit in your Email Signature: At the bottom of every email, even to friends and family, include a line about your hot open positions
