Signaling

Because people often have limited information about organizations and jobs, they may rely on the recruiter's traits and behaviors as signals of the company, the job, and their chances of getting an offer A gregarious recruiter may be taken as indicative of a fun culture A minority recruiter may signal the firm's demographic diversity A recruiter's bad day may suggest to a candidate that he/she bombed the interview

Applicant tracking systems, typical features/ benefits

Cloud-based, enhancing upgrades, maintenance, accessibility, scalability; most are also mobile Candidates apply online via a bespoke application form

Sourcing

Definition: identifying and locating high potential recruits Done for internal as well as external job candidates Involves the analysis of different possible sources of recruits to identify those best able to meet the firm's staffing goals

step 2

Evaluate recruiting source effectiveness: Where applicants discovered the vacancy Where top candidates discovered the vacancy How many recruits each source generated What quality of recruits each source generated, and what was the range of recruit quality from each source What were the demographics of the recruits from each source Yield ratios for each source Conversion rates from applicant to hire for each source Absence and turnover rates by source Job performance by source Promotion rates by source Data relevant to other staffing goals

Desirable Recruiter Characteristics

Familiarity with the job, organization, and career options Good listening skills Good communication skills Good social skills and self-confidence Intelligence Enthusiasm about the job and company Integrity, trustworthiness, credibility Great detail and follow-up

Internships used as recruiting ("try it before we buy it")

Open recruitment Targeted recruitment

Key KSAO shortages Workforce diversity gaps Passive job seekers or non-candidates Former military personnel Employment discouraged Reward seekers Former employees Reluctant applicants

Applicants can overwhelm popular employers;

Most companies save resumes into a data base and can do key word searches at any time in the future

self assessment tools

Goal is to ensure people perceive fairness (of all types) relative to the factors described previously.

Possible spillover effects? Don't/stop buying your product or service Say negative things about your company to others Refuse to consider another job when it becomes open Consider filing a lawsuit against you for discrimination

applicant reactions to organization characteristics

Prestige Reputation for treating employees well

step 3

Prioritize recruiting sources based on hiring goals and recruiting source effectiveness Identify all sources that seem to produce applicants fitting the profile Then delete those that do not meet your need for cost, speed, etc. If quality is the most important goal, college hiring might be the preferred source If hiring speed is more important than quality, job fairs might be better

Creating a sourcing plan step 1

Profile desirable employees to identify promising sources What do successful current employees in targeted jobs like to do? How you might reach them if you were to try to recruit them now? Where do they like to go? What media do they use? What organizations do they belong to? What events do they attend? How did they first learn of their first job in your firm?

applicant reactions to job characteristics

Wages Opportunity for growth and development Interesting characteristics

Sourcing Nontraditional Applicants

Workers with disabilities Older workers Welfare-to-work

Organizational Image

a general impression based on both feelings and facts What comes to mind when you think of Nieman-Marcus, Goldman Sachs, and Tiffany's? The more favorable a company's image, the more people are likely to consider the organization attractive as an employer and state a willingness to respond to its recruitment advertisements Organizational images differ across subgroups of individuals

recruiting

activities that convert the leads generated during sourcing into job applicants, generate interest in a company and its jobs, and persuade candidates to accept extended job offers

Career Sites

almost every Company's website has pages devote to finding a job Can be low cost and very effective; tied to ATS; allows presentation of much information about the company/job

Employer Image

attitudes toward and perceptions of the organization as an employer Employer brands reinforce the employer image

top reasons offers are rejected

bad interview process hiring managers lousy attitude mediocre offer offer letter without a phone call first too-long hiring process lack of feedback

Procedural:

beliefs that the policies and procedures that resulted in the hiring or promotion decision were fair Respect applicants' privacy, avoid delays, use job-related assessments, give fair opportunity to perform

Networking sites:

leveraging personal connections to generate applicants (e.g., LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter) Low cost, fast, targeted, and can access passive candidates Use exploding and services expanding (e.g., Tomigo, Careerarc)

Reporting

monitor and report on costs, activities, results Integration with other systems such as HRIS, company website, etc.

distributive

perceived fairness of the outcome Did you get the job or promotion?

Competitors:

poaching talent away from competitors Good way to fill key jobs and potentially harm competition Can result in lawsuit if those hired had contracts or noncompetes

realistic job previews

provide both positive and potentially negative information to job candidates Rather than trying to sell the job and company by presenting the job opportunity in the most positive light, realistic job previews strive to present an honest and accurate picture The goal is not to deter candidates by focusing on factors that might be perceived negatively, but to provide objective information that job candidates can use to self-assess their fit with the job and organization Improves retention in most cases

Internet Data Mining

searching new for passive/inactives Boolean searches: technique that allows a search to be narrowed by using special terms before the key words Flipping or flip searching: identifying people who link to a web site E.g., link:siop.org NY consultant

Applicant tracking systems

set of processes and collaboration tools to help employers manage recruitment and hiring efforts. From providing applicants a way to apply to jobs online to managing and tracking interview processes, think of applicant tracking systems as supply chain software for hiring

Internet Job Boards

sites that allow companies to post openings and job seekers to post resumes General sites (e.g., Indeed.com, Monster.com, LinkedIn.com) or targeted sites (e.g., hirediversity.com; gaywork.com) Typically generates many applicants but low yield (few hires); "post and pray"

observation

solicit people you observe doing a good job Cheap but random

Geographic targeting

sourcing recruits based on where they live Can focus on the local labor market Can focus on labor markets in locations similar to the organization's location in terms of city size, cost of living, climate, recreational opportunities, etc. Can target individuals likely to find the firm's location attractive Lower-level positions in an organization are typically filled from the local labor market, and the geographic boundaries tend to widen as the position moves up the organization's hierarchy
