Current Recruitment Strategies One Can Invest In - WalkWater Talent Advisors

There was a time when recruiting was simply posting a job ad in the newspaper, looking at resumes, matching the criteria of candidates with the requirements of the job profile, and interviewing them to find the most suitable candidate. Then, times changed, and college placements began taking place. But now, times have changed further, and the hiring process is now more digitally and strategically executed.

Today, big-sized and high-level organizations have a recruiting system in place, with technologies being used to enhance or improve their existing system. And, looking at the success of such digital systems, many small-sized mid-level companies are adopting the same too. That’s because they realize that having a streamlined and teachable system ensures that the candidates in the pipeline are more accounted for, and that the process works smoothly for years to come, which means less time invested in putting in all sorts of recruiting efforts every single time.

Let’s now take a look at the various kinds of recruitment strategies that are used in the present age.

Data-driven recruiting and HR Analytics

These include recruitment methods in which planning and decision-making are based on the data acquired through HR technology such as ATS and Recruitment Marketing platforms. Using such data can bring some great insights on the parts of the hiring strategy that work well, as well as those that have room for improvement. These recruitment techniques can help improve time-to-hire, cost-to-hire, and quality-of-hire.

Employee referrals

Employee referrals can certainly help fill up job positions productively. That’s because referred employees can be trusted upon, and take the shortest time to hire and board, also requiring lesser efforts and investment.

Inbound recruiting

Inbound recruiting is where candidates are proactively attracted, converted, and engaged. 

Recruitment marketing

Recruitment marketing is the process of nurturing and attracting talented individuals to your organization using marketing methods and tactics, following the latest trends that can overcome the possible challenges.

Recruitment automation tools

These tools include software that use new technology to automate the recruiting process, which go beyond HRIS, ATS, and Recruitment Marketing Software. It could be a tool that integrates more than one such elements.

Social recruiting

Social recruiting involves using social media channels for recruiting, such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other kinds of platforms like job boards, forums, and websites, to find, attract, and hire talent.

Collaborative hiring

This is a hiring method in which both the HR teams and teams from other departments work together to find and hire candidates. Such collaboration between experienced teams improves and positively affects the overall recruitment and hiring experience, bringing in better quality hires.
