Rapid Response Recruiting
One of your employees just gave a two week notice! And suddenly you are moving as fast as you can to find a replacement and for some training from your leaving employee. You will need to get a rapid response. You have to move fast, or you’ll miss your chance with top talent.
Suddenly its an Emergency
Emergencies happen and the hiring manager needs that position filled like yesterday. Candidates want to move fast, too. They want a rapid response after applying, quick feedback after an interview, and a decision sooner rather than later.
Don’t Forget the Goal
However, all the attention on speed and a rapid response can feel like chaos personified. Leaving everyone to focus on completing a task rather than the goal which is finding the right person to fill a role and for everyone to be happy with the decision.
Hurry up Now Wait
Sometimes achieving that ultimate goal of finding the right person for the right role for the right reasons means waiting until the right time. If you are recruiting, you know that circumstances change. You might have been in the middle of sourcing for a position, and it is suddenly put on hold, or that perfect candidate loves the opportunity but isn’t ready to move yet.
Relationships Pay Dividends
If you have been recruiting for any length of time, you know the drill. Successful recruiters approach their role as relational, not transactional. The regs needs to be filled, but you also need to build your sourcing pool, relationships, and trust. Doing this can pay dividends when you treat everyone with respect and check in with your candidates, the next time you have a difficult role to fill.
Successful recruiters know how to juggle and work on several timelines at the same time. But they also know the difference between immediate need and future opportunities. And the best recruiters don’t lose sight of either.
