How to Accurately Predict Future Hiring Needs?

Business realm is increasingly dynamic in nature and if you want to up the ante, in that case, you need to think on the same page or at times, even outsmart your competitors in hiring.

How do we do that??

Predictive hiring is a good way forward. Through predictive #hiring , you can anticipate how well the employee can perform at a given job role based on their skills, experience, and qualifications. However, though predictive hiring is a battle-tested way to hire #talented individuals, it should be done in the right way to meet organizational future hiring needs. In this blog, we shall look at a few ways that can help you undertake future hiring in the best way.?

How to Setup an Efficient Predictive Hiring Model?

Deploying the Markov Model in Hiring?

The Markov model helps in analyzing the future trends based on the current ones which are prevailing in the competition. Organizations can set-up two models: (i) Markov Chains (ii) Hidden Markov Models.

In the Markov Chain model, the organization's future hiring needs can be analyzed via an observation which is based out of the present trends but anticipating future transformation. For example, as per the current AI trends, the #recruiters could look for better ways to hire writers for example.?

As per the current Chat GPT trends, anyone can write an article; however, to differentiate human-touch from an AI-touch, an analytical approach to writing could help enterprises rank higher. Keeping that in mind, the Markov Model can be applied through the use of NLP or Natural Language Processing that can predict the future behaviors of the market. In Kuwait, during the pandemic, the Markov model was applied to healthcare and it helped in analyzing when the highest levels of infections of Covid 19 would occur. Using that model, it was possible to eliminate peak infections 10 days before it could have actually hit Kuwait. The same can be applied to hiring which can significantly improve the hiring potential of the enterprise.?

Workload Analysis Model in Hiring

Workload analysis is a battle-tested way to evaluate how much pressure has been exerted on the existing employees. If the pressure is high, it shall negatively impact productivity, whereas, if the pressure is low, the same outcome will follow. However a balanced approach to workload management could elevate business outflows and optimize the working environment. Now, the question to raise here is how do we do that?

However a balanced approach to workload management could elevate business outflows and optimize the working environment. Now, the question to raise here is how do we do that?

From the above model, you can use the Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT) to undertake hiring. In this method, we shall do a FTE or Full Total Employment which includes contractual? employees and full-time employees. Based on this computation, it will be possible to examine whether the organization requires hiring at the present hours. This model is specifically suited to those organizations that are hiring more part-timers in comparison to full-timers and end up paying more in times of need. In the FTE model, we give due leverage to personal allowances, fatigue allowances, and delay allowances. The sum total of all comprises the FTE.?

To identify whether you need hiring, the FTE should be excessive. You need to put the following equation in place.

FTE: Total Processing Time/ Effective Working Time

So if your total processing time is 12 hours and out of that, only 8 hours comprises effective working despite the involvement of all the workers. In that case, the possibility of overload cannot be terminated.?

Why?

Because if a task requires 8 hours of completion and despite the entire workforce engaging for the same number of hours or at times, even if higher, the outputs do not coincide with the inputs, it has given a clear indication that your existing workforce is burdened. Since we estimated that optimized working models should have personal allowances, fatigue allowances and delay allowances in place. Despite all these metrics, if respective outputs are not getting generated. Maybe, it is high time to hire new staff and get going with the process.?

Conclusion?

These are a few ways through which you can undertake hiring and meet with the future hiring needs through the use of data. As an enterprise, you should always be ready to adapt to circumstances and these models which are discussed above can help you accurately predict hiring and optimize outputs in the best way possible.?
