Overcoming Small Business Perception Challenges
The Talent Professionals Are the Judges Talented professionals want to know that your company has opportunities for their skill set, their career path and benefits that are different than other companies. This is engaging an entire community rather than keeping the talent acquisition a separate part of your business.
Update Weekly and make sure all employees have profiles on LinkedIn
Being a community member on Twitter to maintain your pipeline of IT folks
Having your key staff share their thoughts with the community
Meetups- topic oriented
very specific to skill set, and bring in your speakers.
How Do You Start this Journey? Understand what you provide a talented professional in opportunities, benefits. Communicating the mission, skills set and culture map for your customers
# 1 Source of Hire: Referrals Establish a referral program that is constantly communicated with your team. Celebrate the successes of the hires and program outreach. Your client facing managers are going to be your best recruiters. Everyone in your recruitment pipeline is an ambassador; make sure that they realize this rather than just pushing paper through the system. You might not hire someone, but they may refer someone to you, work for you later or at least spread the good word.
#2 Source of Hire: Job Boards
Utilizing job postings = Online Advertising A way to advertise to a key market by using the search terms that your key talent will be searching under. Use Resume Database Searches to build your pipelines that match with your contracts. Cultivate candidates with updates and news.
