Recruiting in Small Business: Do it Yourself!

Recruitment can feel overwhelming for small and medium businesses or not-for-profits. Maybe you're worried about competing with the big names and their resources. So let's level up your HR!
In this episode of The HR Hub, I dove into 'full cycle recruitment' which is all the steps in the recruitment process. I offered insights and strategies to help you attract great people even when there are many larger and more well-known employers in your area.
This is another episode I did myself. I'm an HR consultant to small and medium businesses and distilled some of the questions I get into a quick overview. I broke down the full-cycle recruitment process and highlighted why you need to care about each step if you want to make great hires.
In this episode, you'll discover:
📚The difference between a job ad and a job description, and why it matters.
🎯How to source candidates effectively whether you target individuals or get individuals to target you.
🚀 Strategies to speed up the screening and selection process and avoid bias.
💰 Getting the most out of your budget.
⏰ The importance of timing in recruitment and how to plan for it effectively.
👥 How to assess a candidate's fit for your organization without compromising diversity.
