In the final blog of my Gatekeeper series, I want to tackle one of the toughest barriers in shifting your recruitment model to a Gatekeeper approach: hiring leaders and executives. If you’ve read the first two parts of my series, you may think the Gatekeeper approach looks great on paper, but gaining organizational buy-in seems implausible. (And if you haven’t read the first or second installment in my series, I encourage you to pause and read those now).

Hiring isn't easy and it usually isn't fast.

Now, no one drops into a new job knowing everything already but some hires seem to find their feet faster than others. There are many reasons a new hire might struggle, from a miscommunication during the interview to a steep learning curve once in the job.

Organizational design is a key issue for every business leader. While there may be differences in approach to that design, all tend to agree on one thing: the right strategy and work structure are critical components that shape everything from company culture to the day-to-day experiences of employees. It's common knowledge: When employees are engaged, they are happier, more work gets done, and as a result, companies prosper.

In an era where so much of the recruiting process happens online, in-person recruiting events can seem out of place or old fashioned. But make no mistake: when properly utilized and executed, live events can be an incredibly useful recruiting tool. There’s no real replacement for seeing a candidate face-to-face and interacting with them in real-time, without the pressure and tension of a formal interview, and that’s what recruiting events have to offer.

Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

Developers are a clever bunch. They’re trained to break a problem into logical chunks so that a computer can perform them the same every time. If you’re looking to hire them, your job listing will undergo the same scrutiny that an algorithm does.

But most engineers today frown at the idea of completing a coding test, and over 50% straight out refuse to do status quo assessments (based on our research with 100+ companies in SEA).
