Who Should Participate in Recruiting & Retaining Employees?
Generational Business Strategies
We customize recruitment and retention strategies to optimize the multi-generational workplace.
When getting ready to recruit for a position, we recommend creating your Staffing Team for Success. You don’t have to do it all, especially if you are a one-person show wanting to grow! This team can take many shapes and forms, but here are the people to consider and why.
Current Employees
Unless you are replacing a current employee, communicate to all employees that you are looking to hire additional employees for current positions or you are looking to onboard a new position for the team. They may know a qualified candidate, be willing to recruit, and/or have suggestions on tasks to delegate to the new position. They also make great mentors for new hires to ensure newcomers feel welcomed and learn about the cultural norms and guidelines.
Business Consultants
At GBS, we love writing job posts and conducting initial client screening interviews. Who better to ensure a great candidate who fits your culture than someone who works with you consistently to grow your company and develop your team. They can also provide templates, spreadsheets, processes, and training they have implemented for hundreds of businesses to retain excellent employees.?
Staffing Agencies
Staffing agencies are excellent partners for temporary and/or part-time hires. They are also great resources for hiring a new position that you aren’t 100% sure is what you need. We will discuss this resource further in future posts, so stay tuned.?
Board of Advisors
And you thought they were only for making decisions and strategic planning! For more on the value of a Board of Advisors, look for future posts or message us on how a Board of Advisors can support your efforts in hiring exceptional employees.
Payroll/HR Companies
Many payroll/HR companies provide additional services, including recruiting. Make sure to speak to your current business services companies to see if they can support your efforts. Sometimes, these services are included in your service packages.?
State Agencies, Workforce Services and Nonprofits
A long list of agencies and nonprofit organizations supports hiring from specific populations, underserved communities, and those with unique needs and abilities. If you would like suggestions, please comment below or message us for additional information or a consultation.?
