The Right Process of Recruiting Employees


Looking into the latest trend, where it has really become difficult for employers to get the best candidate for their firm, though there are a huge number of databases of candidates who are looking for jobs. All this happens just because we do not know the right recruitment process. Due to sudden employer pressure and in need to close the position at times, HR people cannot delve deep into the matter.

So, just to help, here are some of the best 8-point techniques to select the right candidate for your concern.

  1. Understand the requirement: First of all, before you search for any employee for your organization, you need to determine the proper employer requirement.- what they want, get all the minute details, it is not only the experience, education and CTC you look for, but also you need to understand the kind of nature and behavior the employer wants, as these matters in employee retention.
  2. Put the JD accordingly: The Job Description must be put accordingly, at times Human Resource becomes a little reluctant and gives a broader search, which that most probably just to get a larger number of CVs. Do not do that, be specific, it may be that you get less number of CVs, but you will get the cream. Follow the same way for job posting too. For a job posting, display the CTC and years of experience properly, so that similar candidates may apply.
  3. Screen the CVs properly: CV screening is another art. This really requires good experience. So the learners, keep on learning! Get associated with various job portals. Nowadays, many job portals can provide some really good CVs according to your needs. Do not stick to one job portal, as that may keep to array of good quality CVs.
  4. Have a telephonic round: Now, this needs a good psychology reading capability. Talk to the candidates, why they need the job, how much they are dying for it, their expectations, calculate their mind status if they are really looking for a good change. Do not go for a good candidate just for the company’s sake; you also need to understand that they are also looking for a good opportunity. Never forget: desire and opportunity help you get a good employee.
  5. Schedule an interview: Try to avoid dropouts while scheduling the interview; otherwise, it will be of no use. So, get the schedule from the respective managers who are going to take the interview, talk to the candidates accordingly, and then schedule it.
  6. Types of interviews: For a good round, I believe there must be both HR and technical rounds. HR round, must be at least twice, one in the beginning and the other one after clearing all the technical rounds, if the candidate clears the technical rounds. The Interview must end up in a few rounds. It gets really tiring for candidates if they need to take three or four days' leave to come down again and again. So try to get some telephonic and Skype rounds too.
  7. Background verification: Nowadays, this has become really necessary to get a proper background check done. Companies are hiring good companies for this kind of verification check. Get a proper verification done for work profile, education background, and personality verification. All these will help to get a good employee.
  8. Hire the employee accordingly: Once all necessary steps are over, now decide the offer and generate it accordingly, while the offer takes all the required information that is to be considered, so that your offer will not go in vain. 

In the present scenario, now big HR firms and Corporate companies are getting in contact with the best job portals, hiring firms, and reference checking companies that can handle the complete process accordingly, so that the complete process of hiring remains smooth.
