Strategic Recruiting ™

Human capital is an organization's most critical asset in today's global, knowledge-based economy. Some organizations have already recognized that a lack of critical skills will be the biggest single inhibitor to the attainment of their business goals.

   
     
 

Strategic Recruiting allows you to line-up potential candidates ahead of time so that you are prepared and ready when an operational requirement comes along.

Using strategic recruitment techniques, you build a database of future prospects who have been pre-qualified to bring excellence to your organization. These candidates possess the critical skill sets which will form the future drivers of your company so that when you want to fill a critical position, you are able to do so quickly with a top-calibre person.

     
    Strategic Recruiting is a six-stage process.
     
   
Stage I

Identifying the future skill-set requirements based on your strategic plan and stated business objectives.

 
Stage II

Identifying where these potential candidates can be found, by location and employer.

 
Stage III

Identifying the actual candidate targets by name and job title.

 
Stage IV

Making a confidential one-on-one approach to solicit interest, whether now or at some time in the future.

 
Stage V

Meeting potential candidates and assessing their fit with the organization.

 
Stage VI

Maintaining a dialogue over time with those candidates who will be critical to the organization in the future.

   
   

Strategic Recruitment involves investing time in future relationships - both with your suppliers and future candidates. Strategic Recruiters must understand you and your business objectives, to work in partnership with you to attract the best potential candidates to your organization.

     
    Competition for knowledge workers is fierce, and getting more so every day. Filling key positions using traditional recruitment methods is taking longer and longer, as the dearth of critical skills becomes more pronounced. Any company whose growth depends on the contribution of knowledge workers should be recruiting strategically, now!
