Recruitment Process Improvement
Is your recruitment process applicant friendly? Does it make great candidates want to join the company? Three in five candidates leave their application unfinished due to long on-line application processes. Are you updating applicants timely about where they are in the process? 

An inconvenient on-line application process reduces the number of good applicants you receive. Slow communication with candidates on where they are in the process creates a bad name in the marketplace.  A study of more than 5,000 workers found that 58 percent of candidates are less likely to buy from a company they applied to if they didn’t get a response to their application; 69 percent are less likely if they had a bad experience during the interview, as are 65 percent if they didn’t hear back after an interview.

Is your interview process identifying the best candidate or are you just filling seats in your office and hoping for the best? Unstructured interviewing processes lead to bad hires and inaccurate feedback on the applicant causing the company as much as 70% of the employee's salary to find a replacement.

We review your current recruitment process, recommend changes, and assist in implementation and training.

Applicant Tracking Systems
Applicant tracking systems are a great way to make your recruiting efforts more efficient. It allows you to track where your candidates are coming from and provide a historical record of hiring decisions.  There are automated applicant emails that can be set up, so that your candidates are kept informed of the process. 

Implementing such a system can be very time consuming.  Having a seasoned Human Resources professional to manage the project will allow your staff to focus on the other tasks at hand. We partner with you to assist in setting up your program and provide support to your users.
