Ways to Improve Your Hiring Process | Fusion - WeRIndia

Hiring good candidate for the position is the most critical stride in any association.

Every person in the organisation contribute for the organisation success.

Taking the time to find the perfect person, someone who is not just technically capable but also a good fit for the company is important.

Companies that are successful in hiring have a process that includes attracting high-quality candidates, evaluating them in several different areas, and taking the time to get to know the people in different ways.

That is why managers should treat the hiring process “as the most important strategic planning your company needs”.

Here you will find the ways to improve your hiring process:

 

Make accurate job descriptions

Your first step is to ensure you have an effective job description for each position in your company.

Your job descriptions should reflect careful thought as to the roles the individual will fill, the skill sets they’ll need, the personality attributes that are important to completing their tasks, and any relevant experience that would differentiate one applicant from another.

This may sound genuinely essential, but you’d be surprised at how many little companies fail to develop updated job descriptions.

 

Enhance your interviews technique

the job interview process generally focuses on making sure new hires are technically competent, while different elements that are similarly as important to employee success — like coach ability, emotional intelligence, temperament and motivation — are often overlooked. Interviewer should improve interviews technique.

You can’t come appropriate out and inquire as to whether they’re a jerk, but you can ask questions that will help you figure it out on your own.

Let candidates interview you, too

Allowing prospective employees to interview you will give yourself a chance to see what’s important to them. Plus, it will give candidates a chance to determine that they want to keep pursuing a job at your company, or to decide that it’s not the right fit for them.

Be open and honest about what it’s going to be like to work for your company. You want to give a realistic preview of the work environment.

Focus on soft skills

Although the right skill set may seem like the most important factor in whether a candidate is a good fit for a particular role, the truth is that skills can be acquired, but personalities cannot.

Social intelligence — having the capacity to explore social circumstances and cooperate with other people — is very important. Consider soft skills — like interpersonal skills, communication skills, thought processes and emotional intelligence — because they matter.

Check social media profiles

Like most bosses, you’ll presumably do a background check or at least a quick Google search on the candidate’s name to see what comes up about that person online.

But if you’re not looking through the candidate’s social media profiles, you could be missing a key way to find out more about the individual as a person and an employee — for better or for worse.

While it’s legally risky to allow a candidate’s social media activity to factor into your hiring decisions, it can give you a better picture of someone you’re interested in hiring.
