7 Recruitment Strategies to Improve Your Hiring Process

1. Develop a clear employer brand
An important strategy for your recruiting process relies on your employer brand. Your employer brand is what will set you apart from other hiring companies and show candidates why they should work for you.

Employer branding should reflect your business' mission, culture, and values.
Think about questions such as, "Why would someone want to work for this company?", "Does your company support a diverse workforce?" and "What
percentage of your current employees would recommend your company as a great place to work?"

Check that your business' about pages, social media, and advertisements align with
your employer brand.

2. Optimize Your Career Page
Having a well-crafted careers page is non-negotiable. It really is an essential element of every recruitment strategy for a few reasons. First, candidates expect to find a
careers page on your website. Second, it's a great resource to promote open roles, share content and provide information on the company's mission, culture and benefits.

Focus on the Career Page Fundamentals
WP Engine's career page includes all the essentials from the company's core values to internal diversity statistics, awards they've won as an employer and plenty of opportunities for candidates to learn more about the company and their career opportunities.

3. Share Company Culture on Social
Social media recruiting is still very much alive and well. Here are a few companies that have leveraged social media as a way to attract passive candidates on the platforms they spend the most time on.
 Feature Employees on Instagram
 Create Recruiting Social Channels
 Share Your Current Projects on Your Blog
 Give Employees the Spotlight
 Post on Medium

4. Create an employee referral

One recruitment strategy would be to implement an employee referral program within your work. This hiring tactic would allow existing employees to refer quality candidates for open positions within your business. These programs usually offer rewards to employees to encourage them to participate.

Employee referrals are one of the best recruitment strategies because:
• Referred candidates have lower turnover rates
• They're better quality hires
• They help reduce your time to hire
• They're cost-effective for sourcing.

5. Improving the Hiring Process with Data and Metrics

There's a significant human component to finding suitable hires, but don't forget to
use an objective measure of your recruitment efforts.

Some of the most important metrics to track include:
• Application completion rate
• Qualified candidate rate
• Cost of hire
• Time to hire
• Candidate response rate

6. Treating Candidates as Customers

The best candidates can choose where they want to work, just as customers can decide where to shop. Keep that in mind when interacting with applicants.

Tips for ensuring the proper treatment of your candidates include:
• Keeping the application and interview process friendly and welcoming.
• Showing excitement for the role and their interest in your company.
• Responding promptly to questions and being transparent in communications.
• Being open to listening and encourage honest feedback.

7. Take Advantage of Search Engine Tools

It is challenging to rank on page one of a Google search. However, there are a few search engine tools and tricks that can help boost your recruitment strategy without the assistance of an SEO guru.

Thank you for your attention.
