The HT Group, founded in 2001 by Mark Turpin and Jim Gilliam, has been changing lives for decades. The co-founders met in 2nd grade on the playground but they’re not here to play.
A thriving, ultra-competitive job market can be a double-edged sword for companies. It generally means that business is booming, which is good for both employers and employment seekers. After all, as the saying goes, a rising tide lifts all boats. However, it also means that attracting top talent can be difficult for employers. Top talent might be abundant, but those candidates are in demand, and attract competitive offers. That’s particularly true in uniquely competitive spaces like technical or executive staffing.
There are a number of ways to leverage the strengths of your business to attract exactly the right talent for the positions that need filling. That process should begin with a partnership with Austin executive recruiters, tech recruiters, or recruiters specializing in whatever you’re hiring for.
The Importance of Recruiting Professionals
Many companies try to use internal teams to hire, with the understandable assumption that their internal teams know best what they need in a new hire. Unfortunately, recruiting is a time-consuming, difficult, and competitive process that requires dedicated professionals. An internal team often doesn’t have the resources, networks, and experience of dedicated, professional staffing partners, and so they likely won’t discover the most ideal candidates.
A great staffing partner will have the experience, expertise, and proprietary hiring processes to source and secure the best candidate for the position. They also possess an all-important benefit: objectivity. Your teams know your company well, but an external, objective view of your company’s needs, culture, and place in the wider industry is vital for communicating with potential hires.
Company Culture and Knowing Yours
Company culture is top of mind for both employers and candidates in the modern job market. Companies want to hire people who fit well with their culture, and candidates want to know that a company’s culture reflects their personal values. A successful hire relies on accurately communicating company culture. Accuracy relies on objectivity, which is another reason establishing a partnership with a recruiting firm is so important. The most effective staffing agency Austin is going to have a wealth of experience with other companies in your field. That is going to provide them with an objective, unbiased view with which to identify the features of company culture that are exclusively yours.
Carefully Consider the Benefits You Offer and How to Communicate Them
When you’re describing the company, your benefits, and your culture, remember the difference between a benefit and a culture perk. Break room snacks are more of a culture perk than a true benefit, as they’re unlikely to be included in an employment contract. Also carefully choose how you word policies that are at the discretion of supervisors. For example, if your company allows employees to work remotely under certain circumstances but prefers employees to spend the majority of their time in the office, don’t heavily emphasize the remote work option. If you do, you might be inundated with applications from out of the state, or even out of the country. Determining how to communicate benefits and perks is one area in which an experienced staffing partner can be of significant assistance.
