Your Team Isn’t an Afterthought. Your Hiring System Shouldn’t be Either.

A8. Never settle for the answer: “but we’ve always done it this way...” There is new #HRTech launching every single day! It’s so important that you’re constantly evaluating new offerings in the marketplace and continually improving your process #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A6. Always look at the candidate source information of your most successful hires. Ask candidates in the interview process how they found your posting, and survey recent hires to understand their strategy during their recent job search #NextChat

A4. LinkedIn is great… if you’re looking for the job you’re recruiting for fits the platforms demographics… BUT if you need to fill blue collar, technical positions, LinkedIn might not be your best bet #NextChat

A1. It’s mind blowing much the market has grown! The number of vendors has skyrocketed, and the SaaS solutions seem endless. #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A3. Create opportunity for connection. Eliminate silos. Pair people up. Encourage inter-office/inter-department/inter-generational collaborations. It’s easy to find common ground once you start actively looking for it! #WorkTrends

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A2. More EXPERIENCE than anyone else around! Each generation has a unique (and valuable!) perspective offer. #WorkTrends

A1. We need to reevaluate what our concept of “retirement” looks like… for some, a traditional retirement at 65 may be feasible and make total sense. But if your vision of “riding off into the sunset” means switching careers or working part-time, that’s awesome too! #WorkTrends

A8. HR and Marketing can work together and build a better, stronger, more engaging candidate acquisition process. Just reach out to start brainstorming and sharing ideas. #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A7. Watch your click-through rates (i.e. % of people who view your job post and then ultimately submit an application) -- they’ll tell you if your initial messaging is drawing candidates in... #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A6. The infusion of video into the hiring process has been huge. It helps you put a friendly face on your external communications. #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A5. Marketers often develop a “brand guide” which will include the tone of the writing style (i.e. “light and fun” or “smart and a little sassy”) use the same principle when working on your external communications so that you have a defined “style” to your messaging #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A4. Cutting through the noise is always the hardest challenge. It’s difficult to come up with new and original ways to make your recruiting efforts stand out. #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A3. The best thing you can do is make the case that hiring the BEST possible people means that you’ll create one of the BEST places to work. Each and every employee needs to take ownership in achieving that goal #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A2. While marketers “nurture” leads through a series of check-in emails in a workflow, a strong ATS will also allow you to proactively communicate with candidates at every step of the hiring process, and clearly set expectations for what comes next #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A1. HR is just adapting to the fact that job candidates are the “new customers” -- and customer service (i.e. candidate experience from initial job posting to final offer) counts! #NextChat

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

Happy Wednesday #NextChat!

A3. “Didn’t waste my time!” Always be mindful of the amount of energy and time you're asking applicants to invest in your hiring process. EX: Take your current application for a test drive. If you find all those questions tedious, think how your applicants must feel! #WorkTrends

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A2. Infuse a little HUMANITY into the candidate experience. Lead with empathy. Give honest feedback and let candidates know where they stand (even when they’re no longer in consideration.) #WorkTrends

[KeldairHR @KeldairHR]

A1. Technology has vastly increased the pace of the recruiting conversation. Job seekers can go from applicant, to top candidate, to hire at rapid speed, and it’s HR’s job to keep up with that quick pace! #WorkTrends
