Employee turnover can be devastating to your organization. It can cost you anywhere from 30% to 400% of your employee’s annual salary, including recruitment and training costs, reduced productivity, and lost opportunities. As the talent shortage worsens, this cost will only increase as it takes longer to identify and hire qualified talent. Smart organizations are looking at ways to reduce turnover throughout their entire employment lifecycle — beginning with the recruitment process.

When you researched your last holiday, did you look to see what other people had said about the hotel before you booked it? When you made a reservation at that Italian restaurant last weekend, did you do so on the back of a friend’s recommendation or the customer reviews you had read about it? Or when you were last searching for that big ticket item, did you check out which brands were most highly rated among your peers?

We love a good creative recruitment marketing campaign that really stands out from the crowd. In a world where passive candidates are saturated by standard job ads that don’t really motivate them to take action, it’s always great to see the few campaigns out there that really pique the interest. With LinkedIn requests and emails, candidates have the option to ignore so some out-of-the-box thinking to garner their attention can go a long way.

There’s nothing worse than watching a promising candidate struggle during a job interview. They give rambling answers, sweat profusely, and draw one too many blanks. You just hope they can turn things around. But the truth of the matter is, the interview might be going south because it got off to a rocky start on your end. Whether it’s a gruff welcome or a confusing first question, there’s a lot that the interviewer might do to set an interviewee up for failure.

Abraham Lincoln, once said “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe” Well, Abe sure did know what he was talking about because when it comes to sourcing, the very same principle applies! As tempting as it is to do a broad LinkedIn search to get the lay of the land for a position that you’re recruiting for, it’s far more beneficial to spend a bit of time ‘sharpening your metaphorical axe’, so that when it’s
