Innovative strategies to increase hiring:
- Competency-based recruitment, focusing exclusively on standards. For example, some organizations prefer individuals who are creative and open to learning.
- Create an organization with strong HR practices, implementing a pull strategy. For instance, during the induction phase, consider sending a bouquet to the new employee's house a week before they join, along with visiting cards and a joining kit.
- Utilize media management to create an impact, such as generating news about your organization's growth plans in selected media outlets like TV or technology magazines.
- Be selective in choosing vendors and agencies to source candidates.
- Establish a team dedicated to headhunting for key positions.
- Implement an incentive scheme for internal referrals by employees.
- Utilize the references and reporting structures mentioned in candidates' profiles during interviews.
- Use your website for recruiting. Ensure that your "Join Our Team" section effectively communicates the vision, mission, values, and culture of your company.
- Identify where your ideal candidates are located. Determine the media they consume, websites they visit, industry magazines they read, and forums in which they participate. Engage with relevant platforms to attract potential candidates.
I hope this information is helpful.
