The Recruitment Process...
Whether you are an employer looking to find the perfect candidate to fill the vacant role, or you’re a candidate looking to make your next step… We can help.
Choose from the option below to read some tips and advance on how we can approach both scenarios.
Identify the Vacancy
Vacancies can become available in a business when someone leaves when someone moves jobs, leaving their own role available. Those vacancies are for existing roles and are there for easily identified.
When a business grows or changes there may be more or completely new jobs that need to be carried out. It may be less clear what those vacancies are.
Carry out a job analysis
When a vacancy becomes available in an organization it is important that the tasks and skills required for the position are identified. This is known as job analysis.
A job analysis is important as it can be used to identify whether a vacancy needs to be filled or whether the tasks and duties can be redistributed to other staff. It is used to help write the job description and person specification.
Create a Job Description
A job description is a document that states the tasks and responsibilities of the job. It contains information on:
Duties | Pay | Location | Hours | Conditions on Work
This sets out clear expectations for whoever applies to fill the vacancy.
Create a Person Specification
A person specification is a document that states the skills and qualifications needed to do the job. Those skills and qualifications can be listed as either essential or desirable.
This will provide a series of measures against which the organization can judge people who might take on the vacancy.
Advertise the Job
A job can be advertised either internally or externally.
When you employ a person from outside the organization you can use our jobs board to post the listing and we can help find the most suitable candidate.
Application forms and CV's
Application forms are sent out to candidates who wish to apply for the position. Alternatively, a curriculum vitae (CV) will be requested. Application forms consist of pre-prepared questions set by the organization. This allows the organization to easily compare potential candidates. It also ensures the organizations get all the information they required from the candidates. Curriculum vitae (CVs) are prepared by the candidate and are a summary of the person’s education, qualifications, and previous employment history.
