The most important stage of the hiring process is role discovery. ✨ This is when recruiters and hiring managers come together to discuss the details of the position they need to fill. Asking the right questions is so important.📝 Here’s what I do: I record a 60-90 minute conversation, document it, and provide a copy to my client before starting the search. This ensures I have a deep understanding of the role, so I can confidently answer any candidate questions. If recruiters can’t answer questions, there’s a high chance of losing strong candidates during the process. #DefineHR #RecruitmentProcess #RoleDiscovery

A recruiter always champions his candidates, pouring heart and soul into ensuring both the organization and the candidate benefit from the hire. However, he cannot prevent candidates from applying to other organizations. As recruiters, we navigate a double-edged sword: our duty is to provide value to our organization through successful hires, while candidates seek organizations where they feel most valued. Last-minute back-outs from the joining date can create a crisis for a recruiter who has waited for the candidate to join for 30, 60, or even 90 days. In such moments, the recruiter often becomes the target of frustration. In a world where patience is scarce, it's crucial for candidates to understand that last-minute back-outs can significantly impact the organization. Recruiters source and screen candidates not just to meet targets, but to ensure the best fit for both the organization and the candidate. However, I recognize that merely writing this on LinkedIn may not change anything.... #recruiterthoughts #efforts #value #strength #positiveculture #organization #growth #workculture #patience

One way hiring leaders could get a lot braver is by letting go of the obsession with hiring people who have only Recruitment experience ❌ I get it—you want to cover your bases. If things go wrong, it’s a safety net. And sure, it feels easier to hire someone who speaks the same language and has the same background. It’s comfortable. But here’s the thing: sticking only to candidates with only Recruitment experience... ➡️ Limits innovation. ➡️ Doesn’t guarantee future success. ➡️ Cuts down on diversity of thought. ➡️ Shrinks your talent pool. ➡️ Keeps you playing catch-up with the competition. If you keep hiring from your competitors, only to end up trying to catch up with their game plan, you’re always two steps behind. Why? Because while you’re spending two years trying to match their playbook, they’re already moving ahead. #recruitment #rec2rec #candidate #interview #job

Is Your Non-Internal Recruiting Approach Struggling for Success? Answers: https://lnkd.in/gyCc3ekW #RecruitingChallenges #3rdPartyRecruiting #NonInternalRecruiting #TalentAcquisition Hey everyone! 🌟 I’ve been noticing that many posts here focus on topics that seem quite different from my day-to-day challenges, particularly in the realm of recruiting. I'm curious—who among us is involved in **3rd party or non-internal recruiting**? 🤔 It’s interesting how diverse our experiences can be, especially when it comes to talent acquisition.

Let's talk about the hiring process. How long should it take? 🤔 My opinion... 2 stages max. If you're taking longer than that and still struggling to hire, it's time to take a hard look at your process. Here's why: ❗️ Longer processes can show a lack of commitment to the candidate and an inability to make decisions. This can turn off top talent, who are in high demand and don't have time to waste. ❗️ Longer processes also increase the chances of losing top talent to competitors. If you're not moving quickly, someone else will. ❗️ Prolonged hiring processes can also give your company a bad reputation in the market, leading to a negative impact on your future hiring efforts. The facts speak for themselves. Did you know that 64% of candidates who have a negative hiring experience will share it with their friends and colleagues? And even worse, 27% of them will actively discourage others from applying. 👎🏻 In the competitive world of recruitment, word travels fast. So don't let a negative reputation hurt your chances of landing top talent. Simplify your process and create a sense of urgency. After all, it's a candidate-short market, and they won't wait around for you. ⏰ Let's make sure we're putting our best foot forward and creating a hiring process that's efficient, effective, and get's the job done. #Recruitment #Hiring #TalentAcquisition #Efficiency #CandidateExperience #CactusRecruit

You might place candidates daily, or every few days... If you: → Prioritize your recruiting goals >>> your mental health → Rush the process for the sake of filling positions → Spam potential hires with generic messages → Forget to follow up on placed candidates → Pitch your roles in the first interaction → Choose quantity >>> quality of hires → Post jobs without much thought → Ignore candidate feedback You. Will. Lose. In recruitment, it's not just about filling positions fast. It's about building relationships,  understanding needs, and  making strategic moves. Do what works for you—and only you.
