How do you find candidates that constantly align with your company’s mission and vision? Answering million-dollar question is key to executing a competent talent acquisition strategy and filling those hard-to-place roles.
But in today’s fast-paced business landscape, you need a constant stream of top talent to stay ahead of your competition. But staying ahead of ongoing trends and dynamics is easier said than done, and can post a challenge to remaining competitive and relevant in your market.
Whether we’re talking industry-specific demands, emerging skill sets, or standard salary expectations, staying ahead of the curve will position your company as an attractive employer to high-performing candidates who are looking for competitive compensation, culture, and other factors that can advance their career.
From the initial application to the final interview, every touchpoint along your candidate’s journey should reflect your company’s values and commitment to a seamless and transparent hiring process. Some specific practices to illustrate this include:
- Timely communication with the candidate (don’t make them wait on you for longer than absolutely necessary)
- Personalized engagement (no automated stock email templates!)
- Matching your company’s value prop to their career goals and aspirations (this requires active listening and engagement)
