Recruiting Strategies that Target Hidden Employees
It's time to rethink your hiring strategies. Why?
In a survey conducted by LinkedIn and ERE.net in late 2010, they discovered:
Most companies, even those using social media and Web 2.0 techniques, are only reaching that 18 percent of active job seekers. Even if you ignore the 22 percent who plan to keep their jobs, this leaves 60 percent of the workforce untapped.
So how can you go after that 60?
Here are five great strategies to help you recruit more effectively in 2012 and determine your direction in the upcoming quest for the best talent.
The bottom line
As the battle for hiring supremacy accelerates, a shift in recruiting strategy is essential. Part of this means realigning resources toward approaching passive candidates and part of this requires great recruiters using sophisticated techniques and fully engaged management. If you don't have the time or resources to put these techniques into place, consider putting the expertise of your staffing agency to work for you.
