“Hiring” is the act of appointing potential candidates as employees in a certain company. It seems like a simple process from the definition of it and though, it was so in the good old days, but with the advancements in the fields of science and technology, hiring has become a highly competitive and insistent subject. Earlier, companies had the upper hand. Recruiters used to select candidates after minimal interviews. While, now, since the market is so aggressive and everybody is talented in one or another category, companies find it hard to select the right candidate.
Below is a graph showing the growth in recruitment demands over the years.
With this increase in demand, companies have come up with different strategies for hiring. While some have prospered using their techniques, many have even failed, having their reputation gone down as well.
Candidate experience during the recruitment process matters the most when it comes to achieving success during the recruitment process. According to Talent Board and various CXO’s, 50% of candidates opt out from joining the company or drop off during the process when they undergo an uncooperative or unpleasant experience. Moreover, it has also been found from a study by Hay Group that a whopping 70% of candidates reject a company if someone else had a bad interview experience.
Nobody likes anything that takes too much time or asks too many questions. According to a survey by CareerBuilder, 42% of applicants never seek employment in a company if the process is too long, 22% reject recommending the company to others and 9% reject the product.
It is an undeniable fact that the world lives in mobiles. As per Kelton Strategic Consulting, 86% of candidates use smartphones to apply for jobs. Another study suggested that 60% use mobiles for job searches and 40% reject the company if the process cannot be accessed on mobiles.
This is a report created by the Pew Research Center regarding the impact of mobile phones on job recruitment.
These are some of the anomalies that harm any company’s recruitment process. If a company needs to overcome the less-productive hirings then, they must avoid these facets.
There are various ways in which companies can prosper and derive the desired results in the process of hiring top talent. The process of hiring a candidate in the most proper order is known as “structured hiring”.
Structured hiring means following detailed and clear steps that stabilize the whole process and enable both the parties, i.e., the recruiter and the candidate to undergo a hassle-free and unbiased system of operations that is faster and more convenient from the financial point of view.
Screening and interviewing the candidates are the most important factors responsible for molding the desired employee that is required. This is where the 4 steps for the ultimate hiring success come into play.
