3 𝙈𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙨 𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙎𝙚𝙡𝙛-𝙎𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙍𝙚𝙘𝙧𝙪𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙨 In the fast-paced world of driver recruiting, metrics are crucial in shaping your strategies and ensuring success. However, not all metrics are created equal, and misconceptions about what really matters can derail your efforts. Here are four common myths that can sabotage your recruiting metrics and your hiring success. 1. 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵: 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 It's easy to assume that a high volume of applications is a sign of effective recruiting. After all, more options should increase your chances of finding the perfect candidate, right? Unfortunately, this isn't always the case. Quality is far more important than quantity when it comes to driver recruiting. Focusing solely on the number of applications can lead to a time-consuming screening process and the risk of overlooking top-tier candidates. Instead, prioritize metrics highlighting the quality of applicants, such as the percentage of candidates who meet your specific qualifications. 2. 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵: 𝗔 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲-𝘁𝗼-𝗛𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝗜𝘀 𝗔𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 Speed is often celebrated in recruiting, but a shorter time-to-hire isn’t always beneficial. Rushing the hiring process can lead to poor decision-making and higher turnover rates. While it’s essential to fill seats promptly to avoid gaps in your fleet, balance speed with thoroughness. Focus on metrics that measure the effectiveness of your hiring process, like retention rates and driver performance, rather than just how quickly you can bring someone on board. 3. 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 A high offer acceptance rate might seem optimistic, but it can mask underlying issues. For instance, if your pay package is higher than the market average, you might attract drivers more interested in the paycheck than the job, leading to potential turnover. Additionally, a high acceptance rate could indicate that you're not challenging driver candidates enough, suggesting a need to raise your standards. Consider metrics like the first-year retention rate and performance reviews to fully understand your recruiting success. Understanding and leveraging the proper metrics is essential to successful driver recruiting. By debunking these common myths, you can refocus your efforts on the metrics that truly matter, leading to better hiring decisions, lower turnover, and a more effective recruiting process. Remember, it’s not just about the numbers—it’s about what those numbers mean for your recruiting strategy. #CDLjobs #Trucking #TruckingJobs #Advertising #DrivingJobs

SaaS Leaders: Stop Mishires Before They Happen—Clarity Beats Networking Relying on a large network to hire talent? It might be time to rethink that strategy. 🛑 After 12 years of working with founders, CEOs, and investors, we’ve seen one major hiring flaw over and over again: a lack of clarity in the hiring process.

Process. UGH. No one likes process, it seems. It makes me think of bureaucracy and red tape and governance and UGH. But really, process serves a purpose. A very good purpose in many cases. Let's take, for example, the recruiting process. A candidate must apply, then progress from stage to stage in the applicant funnel. The process the candidate experiences is apply -> screen -> interview -> offer, or maybe apply -> screen -> rejection. These steps allow a progressive evaluation of a candidate- offering preliminary advancement before investing the time of a whole interview panel. But, for any candidate to follow this process, the recruiter MUST also reflect the process in the ATS. Have you ever met a recruiter who was lagging on their ATS updates? 🙋🏼 Now, I don't want to play the blame game. Recruiters have a zillion responsibilities, a zillion candidates to keep track of, and a zillion hiring managers breathing down their necks. Plus, they are out forming relationships with future employees. Important stuff. But, if you want to understand how long it takes to fill a role, you can't do that if the system isn't updated. If you want to understand what the best source of hire is, you can't do that if the system isn't updated. And if you want to examine the gender differences in funnel progression, you can't do that if the system isn't updated. It's the reality. The process exists for a reason. Part of the recruiting process is updating the system in a TIMELY manner. Better updates -> Cleaner data. Cleaner data -> Better insights. Better insights -> More learning. More learning -> Better hires! So, how do you reinforce recruiter processes at your organization?
