A hiring hero is at the heart of every great business

Picture a world where recruiting and hiring top talent is easy and enjoyable. One where the time and resources you need are readily available. Where a diverse and skilled group of candidates is eager to meet your employment needs and help your organization grow and succeed.

Imagine a recruiting, assessing, interviewing, hiring and onboarding process that is free of the hustle, hassle and hope approach, and is replaced with a process that is as efficient as it is effective.

An approach where hubris is replaced with heuristics, where the retention rates skyrocket, where ambiguity and uncertainty are diminished and performance and morale improve.

A way to acquire talent while supporting Hiring Managers. Providing them with all the tools they need to hire well, for today and for the future. Easing the hardship of hiring and empowering Hiring Managers and HR teams.

The overlooked, unsung heroes of every great business are the Hiring Managers, Recruiters and HR departments that attract and acquire the talent that grows their organization.

Hiring is an exciting time for every business. It is an opportunity to inject the organization with new and diverse talents and skills sets. Ones that will contribute to the culture and success of the company. 

But the hiring journey is also filled with obstacles.

For as much talk as there is about the transformational power of people in organizations at board and shareholder meetings, too often it is those responsible for doing the hiring who are left to work miracles while short on the time, money and resources.

Coordinating a corporate vision with a candidate’s necessary skills, gathering inputs from managers who just want the vacancy filled quickly, dealing with dynamic market conditions, compensation constraints, while developing recruiting campaigns, job descriptions, interviewing and more comes with a level of uncertainty which, even under optimal conditions, is difficult and stressful.

The cost of bad hires, mis-hires and lost hires is substantial.

Yet, those responsible for talent acquisition are tasked with finding ‘perfect fit’ candidates and often forced to settle with ‘good enough’ employees because of the complexity of the task and a lack of support.

Attracting talent, standing out in the market, and getting the attention of those most talented candidates under such conditions is a heroic task indeed.

“Great vision without great people is irrelevant.” – Jim Collins, Good to Great

There is an indisputable link between any organization’s people and its performance. Yet the responsibility for finding this essential ingredient for success is left with Hiring Managers and HR departments that are under-resourced, under-supported, and under-appreciated.

The difficulties of hiring, especially for companies that don’t have global brand recognition, that exist in niche markets, industries or locations, face an uphill battle in the competition for the transformational talent.

An average hire leads to average business. This is not what hiring heroes aspire towards. They look to close the gap between the knowledge that hiring well is important and the actions it takes to make hiring a priority.

Talent acquisition, at its heart, is about bringing people into your organization who will execute and excel in their role. Whose results will move the brand forward, increase its market share and will be consistent contributors. These are the hires that impact an organization and reflect well on the business and the Hiring Manager that found and fostered their talent.

“Believe that there are no limitations, no barriers to your success – you will be empowered and you will achieve.” – Ursula Burns, CEO of Veon.

What Hiring Managers know is that the importance of getting hiring right, bringing in the best talent, talent that will fit in and thrive in your organization, is the cornerstone of business success.

A job this important requires support.
