how to recruit and hire the right people

Recruiting and Hiring, Done Right

The first thing most people will notice about recruiting is that it’s time-consuming. You need a legally compliant job description, and it probably needs to be reviewed and approved by multiple people. You need to run a compensation analysis that includes calculating not just base salary but also total compensation that includes benefits and the cost of time off. Going through resumes can feel overwhelming, and sometimes gets frustrating as you realize that in the age of AI, some of the resumes you’re looking at are fake—bots! Then there’s coordinating the schedules to actually get multiple interviews lined up, which takes time out of everyone’s day.

And amid all of that, have you ever trained your team on how to interview? Are they aware that asking questions intended as general ice-breakers such as, “Where did you grow up?” or “How many kids do you have?” could unintentionally expose the company to liability?

Recruiting and Hiring Tasks, Handled

Recruiting and hiring will always be a process that requires coordination from you and your team in order to get it right—but there’s a lot that we can take off of your plate.

We can run a compensation analysis that aligns with the pay bands in existence at your company and that pulls from real market data for a reasonable hire in your industry.

We can write up the job descriptions and coordinate approvals across multiple teams.

We can set up automations with scheduling that help candidates get the time they need and your teams to align on when they can meet.

We can set up the hiring rubrics to make your interview process legal and compliant, with documentation to back up your hiring decisions.

Hiring and Recruiting is Expensive

Getting it wrong with recruiting and hiring processes has a real cost to your business. All those hours taken out of everyone’s day to run an interview, only to have a failed interview process or to have candidates who back out or suddenly want to negotiate a higher salary than they agreed to when applying, can be frustrating.

Brave Work Project’s recruiting services can streamline much of the process and free up time immediately—and we don’t take a headhunter commission. Our Fractional HR work can include all of these hiring tasks to ensure that you’re prepared to run a solid interview process.
