RECRUITMENT
recruitment strategy is vital to your success in recruiting great care workers.
STREAMLINE THE PROCESS
If you’re too slow or you have a multi-step recruitment process that involves long-winded application forms, travelling back and forth to complete DBS checks, shadow shiſts etc., then you’re probably killing your chances of competing for talent.
If you’re an owner, director or registered manager, should you be responsible for the recruitment process?
Obviously, you may need to be involved in the interview or hiring decision but as for writing job adverts, managing all the troublesome and repetitive tasks such as reading CV’s, calling candidates, conducting values-based recruitment interviews, and chasing no-show candidates, is a waste of your valuable time.
If you’re not getting the results then you need to look at delegating those duties.
TRACK TO IMPROVE
You can’t improve what you can’t measure. More oſten than not the lack of technology, coupled with a very manual process and ad hoc approach, means that providers struggle to effectively manage and measure their recruitment.
WHAT SHOULD YOU BE MEASURING?
Naturally, if you’re running a domiciliary, supported living or home care business, then the agency metrics may not be applicable to you.
• Number of live vacancies - per month, per-quarter, per-year • Number of applicants per vacancy • Candidate acquisition costs • Time from advert placed to vacancy offered and accepted • Time from offer accepted to person being on-rota • Interview invites to interview attendance • Candidate No-Show metrics (reasons why) • Candidate Sources and associated costs • Application Hot Zones (location & postcode)
If you know what’s happening in real-time, then you can start to address your recruitment challenges. A broken or badly structured recruitment process is responsible for over 75% of the problems most of our clients have with securing the right staff. More oſten than not, owners and directors are not aware of this.
The demand for talent is very strong. You need to change your thinking and your approach towards recruiting if you are to remain competitive in today’s market.
