Hello all, can I get an idea on making the hiring process more effective for quality and performance? I currently follow a standard questionnaire to assess language proficiency, flexibility for work, and background, but I am unsatisfied with the results. I am looking to enhance my recruitment process and have already decided to involve someone from operations in the final recruitment decision. However, I am open to more ideas on how to make my work remarkable and appreciated.
Thank you.

There is a ton of stuff already posted on CiteHR about recruitment. This question is asked many times every single week. Please use the Research Box at the top of the page and review the information already available to you from other members. I am at a loss to understand why there is a need in India to overcomplicate the recruitment process. There is ample evidence here on CiteHR that many of the processes in use DO NOT result in better hiring, staff retention, etc. Long-standing members will recall that I have posted many times on this subject.
Aussiejohn's 6 Easy Steps to Recruitment and Selection
For the newcomers, here is Aussiejohn's 6 Easy Steps to Recruitment and Selection. If you want the right candidate for the job, you only need 6 things:
1. A proper position description that sets out the requirements of the job.
2. A person specification setting out what the successful candidate needs to perform the job.
3. A rigorous selection process based on the PD and PS to choose the top 4 candidates to interview.
4. A targeted interview questionnaire based on the PD and PS to ensure the candidates can do the job and can integrate into the company - no stupid, irrelevant questions that have nothing to do with the job.
5. Well-trained interviewer/s.
6. A rigorous and thorough reference-checking process.
Ensure that you source the RIGHT type of candidates for the interview right off the bat. Don't waste time on anyone else. That's all there is to it. No need to complicate the process. Remember the KISS principle.
