Advertising the position

4.Advertising the position - you can advertise in any of the online job boards, specialty job boards or magazines, newspapers, or local papers. An outside recruiter can be hired to recruit, depending on the difficulty of finding talent for the position or your time availability is limited in the search process. Don't forget internal candidates for the position.

Another resource for finding talent is your current employees. When I was actively recruiting full time I was successful in hiring 34% of my new hires via employee referrals. They can be your talent   Christian Dior Sunglasses scouts. Start an Employee Referral plan where you compensate the employee who locates strong talent for you.

Many companies have Applicant Tracking systems to help with the gathering and sorting of resumes. If your company has many open positions, I would highly recommend that you purchase a system.

Even if you don't have an applicant tracking system, you could use Microsoft Outlook to take incoming resumes and put them in the appropriate folder. For example, you are looking for two different sales functions...sales manager and junior sales rep. Make sure in your ad you require the subject line to Replica Oakley Sunglasses, either Sales Manager or June Sales Rep. As the email hits your inbox, with the right set up on your PC, each email with the resume will go into the appropriate folder.

5.Screening Process - who is responsible for the first level screening of resumes? You, HR, or someone in your department who is experienced and knows the type of candidate you want to interview. They will go through the many resumes, using the job description as their guide, and locate the candidates that best match.
