Recruitment, Assessment and Talent Management
Recruitment Management
Recruitment Management can be a challenge for any business, no matter what the industry, culture or complexity of the role. Depending on your perspective on the matter, finding great people can be either a minefield or a treasure hunt (we prefer to see it as the latter of course).
From helping you choose the best Applicant Tracking Software and most appropriate recruitment process to drafting job descriptions, job specifications and competency frameworks. Collectively in the team, we have conducted hundreds of interviews, poured over and screened thousands of applications. This wealth of experience has attuned us to what works and what is a waste of your time.
What works is really understanding the business and the role, knowing what quality of person you’re looking for and having the tools available to discover that person. Such tools include in-depth interview guides, business simulations, case studies; ensuring you are assessing the right skills through interview skills training, aptitude, competency-based and psychometric tests and assessments; all of which will enable you to make the right recruitment management decisions.
Assessment and Talent Management
Once you’ve made your hiring decision, we can also help with ensuring you are onboarding your new starters effectively – be it virtually or onsite. Check out our Best Practices Guide to virtual onboarding to ensure the process of integrating new talent to your organisation is not just a good one but a great one!
And the job of managing your talent doesn’t stop the moment they join, we can support with using psychometrics and assessments to define strengths and development needs for senior executives, leadership development and succession planning.
We will help you to:
- Define your Talent pool and the criteria which you will use to assess their potential
- Work with you to objectively evaluate candidates’ skills and ability to fulfil the current and future job requirements
- Assess job suitability, values and culture fit, potential and development needs
- Provide you the skills training so you can make informed, fair and unbiased selection decisions
- Support recruitment decisions – be it sitting on the interview panel or preparing the right competency-based interview questions, aptitude tests, case studies
- Support onboarding new talent
- Provide basis for all talent management initiatives and establish baseline against which training needs, skill gaps and development areas and training impact are measured
We use our combined knowledge in business psychology and in-depth understanding of the realities of work situations to build talent assessment processes and conduct specialist assessment for different candidate segments including:
- Executive hiring and assessment
- Middle manager hire
- Specialist hire
