5 Recruiting strategies that every Sales Recruitment Agency must follow

Creative Recruiting agencies can get your jobs seen by candidates who are in need of new job role. Working with well known companies is everyone’s desire and hiring loyal candidates is what every company is looking for.

Retention rate must be low and an employee must stay in your firm at least for a year. Hiring a candidate is an expensive process as it includes the cost of training an employee, bearing his/her expenses etc. 

If an employee leaves within short time duration, it is a loss to the organization. Adopting some recruiting strategies can avoid attrition rates to an extent, giving you genuine employees who can work with you for long. 

Recruiting Strategies that every Agency must adopt:

• Your staff is your customer.
• Know the cost and benefits of every hire you make.
• Hire appropriate type of people as per the need i.e. instead of full timers you can opt for freelancers.
• Prefer to hire candidates for long term.
• Make your employer brand strong with the use of content marketing
• Prefer to have coaching culture.
• Have an attractive office space.
• Get data to manage your  recruitment time.
• Prepare strategy to suit the culture.
• Cover all pain points in the job posts.
• Use drip emails.
• Adopt latest interview techniques.
• Get the advantage of employee referral scheme.
• Have a mobile friendly application process.

These recruitment strategies can definitely help you to get the desired employees for your organization. Further, there are certain mistakes that companies do while recruiting candidates. Knowing these mistakes can stop you from wrong recruitments.

Mistakes that take place during recruitment:

• Not considering applicants as customers:   Your recruitment strategy must be similar to your sales and marketing funnel.  If you get the resume of any high quality candidate, call them immediately. Give them a great hiring experience as such employees are real assets.
  
  
  Well known companies offer high packages to attract the best talent in the world.  For a CEO of a company, 90% of job gets over when he/she hires a perfect team to work with.  Following your recruitment strategy will help you to create your own employer brand.
  
  
• Not hiring as per the need:  When you can do with a freelancer, there’s no need to hire a full timer.  Freelancers usually jump to take the opportunity with the fastest growing start up. Clarity is important to know how to fill that particular place. 
  
  
  Knowing what works best makes it easy to know whether to hire an employee or to find an outsource solution.
  
  
• Know where to hire what type of people:  For certain positions a start up can hire freshers but once it has reached its growth level it needs experienced people or for some companies this is vice versa.  At initial stage, you may need multi talented people who can work on Facebook, test radio campaigns or an operation manager who can work as an engineer too. 
  
  
  Hiring multi talented people can sometimes be a toughest job. Recruiters either do for a specialist or for a person who is cross talented. Here, recruiters must always find the person having required expertise and knowledge of other similar disciplines.

Always hire keeping in mind the company stage. If you need freshers, hire them; if it’s the time to look for specialists, hunt for them but never hire someone who is good at doing everything but in an inappropriate manner.
