Hire Great Talent Know if your are on the right path

Hiring great talent means greater productivity &

profitability

With the best technology and resources, an organization will

struggle to achieve the requisite results without the right people.

The contributions made by the right candidate in terms of

productivity will far outweigh the cost of his salary

The starting point to any successful

organization is

Hiring the Right People

With these new recruitment practices and the far reaching implication of

bad hiring, the recruiters must constantly ask themselves one question

Am I hiring the Right People?

A job analysis effectively evaluates the personal attributes

required to execute the job role

• This list is identified by breaking down a job into logical parts.

• Each job task is analysed basis parameters such as skill, job knowledge

and overall attitude

When you know exactly what talents are required… You know what to look for and what to test for, then you know you are hiring great talent.

1. Analyse the job you want to fill

Employer Agility combines

• IQ assessment – Technical ability

• EQ evaluation – Cognitive and social ability

An EQ evaluation offers a high probability index of

how well an employee may fit into your

organization.

2. Focus on Employee Agility

If you are using both, then you are hiring great talent

If your standardized hiring process includes

• Criteria-based screening of candidates

• A thorough background check

• Standardized assessments

• Structured interviews

…then you are likely to be hiring great talent

3. Use a Standardized Hiring Process

Hiring based on your company’s work culture, ethos and future plans turns out to be more effective than hiring that is done based purely on candidate skills.

To ensure great hires you need to hire candidates who

fit into your vision of the organization’s future rather

than just today’s needs.

Although a new employee has to make economic sense

for today’s work, the best hires are people who are

future ready and not just people who have skills to get

work going today.

4. Hire for the future

If you hire for today’s need and tomorrow’s vision, then you are hiring great talent.

5. Create Great Candidates

If you consider non- traditional candidates and engage the bright ones out there then you will create great talent.

While experience may be a pre requisite it cannot be a

substitute for a good cultural fit of the employee

Small organizations that are constrained by lack of resources

and brand power, may find it worthwhile to recruit new

candidates and train them rather than poach on existing ones

Many a time unconventional solutions to problems come

from people who may have a ring side view of the situation.

Efforts need to be made to meticulously engineer a diverse

and effective team.

Consider

Having put together a worthy team, the task is to put

together a conducive system which enables employee

engagement

“Expand your definition of what a good hire entails – often the most promising candidates sit on the periphery of your sector.”

Non-traditional Candidates

Engage Candidates

How to create great candidates?

• Periodic performance tracking and evaluation

• Identify good employees and help them to improve their

performance better

• The employees should be motivated to be responsible

and thus remain committed to their own improvement

• Regular workshops and skill development helps the

employee to be more confident in the work he does

6. Inculcate a sense of Self Awareness

If you

• Use Psychometric Assessments

• Apply an effective way to

manage, track and receive

employee referrals.

• Engage your new talent in a way

to improve early performance

and later reap the benefits

…then you are hiring great talent.

vision
