Just like the market that our clients operate in, the talent pool is highly competitive. Securing staff who add value to the business is key in a world where survival of the fittest is what counts.
Smart, capable and inspiring individuals can afford to be choosy about where and how they work. To engage them, companies need to ensure that all the right attention mechanisms are in place.
Dylan* advises its clients on every detail that will help them put their best foot forward - from how to word job descriptions and prepare the environment (don't keep your next high flyer waiting in a dowdy reception reading magazines that are six months out of date!) to structuring interviews that maximise limited time and run to schedule.
It's simple, but always intelligent
Attention - Preparing for a Candidate
Hire the wrong person and it will hit your business where it hurts most, in the pocket. A recent estimate of the expense in making the wrong hiring decision indicated that costs can be as high as twice the employee's annual salary. Factors included in this calculation are time, the cost of other projects that get put on hold for the hiring process, reduced productivity, advertising of the new position, recruitment fees, training, severance pay, unemployment insurance, low employee morale, and high stress. Bottom line, you need to get the hiring process right.
