Recruiting Excellence: An Insider's Guide to Sourcing Top Talent

by Jeff Grout (Author), Sarah Perrin (Author)

Synopsis

You want to fill your company with smart ideas, fill it with great people. In times of boom or bust, it is the people that provide competitive advantage. Recruiting excellence explains how the dynamics of the modern work place have changed, and how this has impacted on recruiting strategies.

Split into three sections, Part one takes a step back, looking at the strategic environment: the candidate's agenda, changing employment market, employer branding, alternative means of sourcing new recruits and alternatives to taking more staff on board.

Part two takes a practical look at recruitment - addressing the process, use of consultancies, headhunters, advertising, CV's and application forms. It also explains the psychometric texts, their use and effectiveness. It gives tips on interviewing and the final selection.

Part three - After the selection- examines making the offer, probationary period and how to retain the key recruits.
