First four months in Recruitment, Summing up What it is all about – Stakeholder Management,Process
adherence, Market Intelligence, Result Orientation.
Stakeholder
Management – On a daily basis a recruiter need to interact with the
Business, Prospective Candidates, Background verification team, Induction team,
Admin team, placement Vendors and Internal stakeholders. A recruiter is one who
cuts and connects across all these teams to put in the best candidate
experience and also to fulfill the business requirement. Everybody’s goals are
different and yet it conspires with each other, that’s what a recruiter is
responsible for.
Process Adherence
- Whenever there is a process and policy in place, it’s not just to increase
the complexity but on the other hand it’s a collective wisdom that has evolved
over a period of time substantiated by the past data and trend . Particularly
in recruitment, being the gate keepers of the organization it’s extremely
important to uphold the integrity of the system.
Market Intelligence –
If you are aware which company has which skill in abundance, what’s their
notice period, What’s the salary each company pays for certain experience, Who
is downsizing , Client relationships
with your competitors in the market, Which skill is hot in the market , Recruitment
is a cake walk for you !
Result Orientation
– At the end of the day, all matters is Cost, Quality and time. How many billability
loss positions you were able to fill without any billing leakages and how many
deals were not lost because you brought in at right talent @ right place @
right cost.
Stakeholder Management, Process Adherence, Market
Intelligence all zeros in to the single end product of Result Orientation and
Customer Delight !
It’s high time that as a recruiting partner, not to be a
mere process owner but also be aware of the business, talent market and recent
trends in Talent Acquisition.
