Everyone Loves the Hiring Process, Right? Ok, maybe not everyone, but you should be able to at least look forward to it!
Specializing in working with businesses who don’t have a need for full-time HR or an in-house, full-time Recruiter, HR-Rethought is more than familiar with the different grumbles and headaches when it comes to hiring. Why should growing your team not be exciting and fun? Why should it feel like a messy chore that is put on the back burner even when it needs to be a priority? It shouldn’t and doesn’t have to be.
While our team of Recruiting Partners can’t claim to have “heard it all,” their unique experiences with various industries, for and not-for-profit organizations, different sizes of companies, and many types of positions have provided us enough to always know where to start.
Where to start.. What does that mean?
What we’ve found is that there is typically a combination of factors to address. These include process creation or refinement, dialing in on what and who you’re looking for and aligning that with resumes and interviewing. And then enhancing the recruiting experience – that of the candidate and those involved in hiring and onboarding. All of this ties into the most common three hiring hurdles we hear:
- “Recruiting and hiring takes too much time.”
- “There aren’t any good candidates.”
- “No one works out.”
By outsourcing your hiring efforts and partnering with recruiting experts, you will “elevate your recruitment.” You will save time, more accurately target the perfect fit, and increase employee retention. While you focus on your responsibilities as owner, CEO, hiring manager, etc., your Recruiting Partner is working alongside you and your team, taking the heavy lift of finding great team additions off your shoulders.
Recruiting Partners at HR-Rethought provide more value than managing job postings and screening candidates; we are also strategic partners. We dig deep and figure out the “why” when hiring isn’t going as well as it should. This involves looking at no call/no show (the infamous ghosting phenomenon) numbers to researching why candidates may be rejecting your offers and anything in-between. Then, we find solutions!
Your success is our success.
