Recruitment is Not the Only Process of Judgement

November 29, 2019 by Post

A mere second is taken when you need to form an opinion about someone. The time frame is really small as how can you know about someone in just a mere few seconds. How can you figure out they are competent and reliable in their respective field? In a lot of ways to form opinions about someone might seem counterproductive, but this is the manner by which human nature operates. In the manner by which we cannot hide away from human assessments, the manner by which you formulate a first-hand opinion about someone outlines on how the relationship works in the days to come. Indeed, it is very difficult to change that perception.

Human resources cannot be termed as a mere intake process

If you do possess your own business or even work in HR department of a company, you might be aware that first impressions have a lot of value when a candidate walks in through the door. The manner in which they are dresses, how they speak and even the grooming methods have a definite say- a combination of all these factors have an important say in how you feel about an individual or whether they are going to be a good fit for your company. This should not be the case.

If you did not have time to iron your shirt as you will running late for an interview, an organization is now going to consider a lot of thought into this as far as job performance evolves. Even if you did forget to bring your resume still, it is not a big deal as they might have a copy of it in their email or a print out with them. But the question is going to arise if you did go on to forget something basic about an organization.

The point of consideration is you have to accurately gauge a candidate once they enter into an organization. Many candidates in a HR domain form an opinion about a candidate as this is really important to the success of your firm.

You do not seem to be the only judge in question

Sadly, many HR professionals do not pay a lot of attention to the first hand impression about a candidate they find out. Just think about it as the stakes might be really high when you are going to hire someone in your organization the pressure that is being put on the candidate seems to be even greater. What would be the case if the company is not the right fit for them? What about the case where they might be having more opportunities and even go on to shop about various services before they end up at a final decision. When you are working for a company how it will look on your resume in the future.

After all it is not about money always. In case of job applicant it is about finding an organization that treats them in an honest way. It is even about finding a company that might not go out of business in a few weeks. If they end up making a wrong decision it might pose to be a real cause of concern in the days to come.

Now why this is important for you? An organization would not want to lose a candidate just because they did not like your organization. Even a worse situation is a candidate accepts an offer and does not aim to stay there for a longer period of time. You might be spending weeks or months to hire them and not planning to avail a couple of weeks’ notice in quick succession.

Cashing in on employee assessments so as to work towards a positive business impression

Now how you are planning to deal with this problem? Some of the steps that you tend to take can be deemed to be a no brainer that is to foster a clean and viable office environment and even verbally selling during the course of an interview process. All these are basics that a self – respecting HR professional is aware ceases to be a must. But what are overlooked here are the actual assessment and even the hiring process.

Just think on the lines that everyone wants to go for a job interview and still wants their job skills to be tested. By incorporating these procedures as part of the test in an indirect way, you are looking at recruiting potential candidates.

  • This shows that you are serious about locating the best talent. The moment you introduce a new element to the process of hiring you can take solace from the fact that you will be working with experienced professionals and not novices.
  • It goes on to make the candidate vested. The moment they become part of an assessment test, the candidate is provided with a challenge and they do have confidence in their abilities to overcome this challenge. Their only challenge is to impress you and grab the job.
  • The hire validation is given the feeling that they have the ability to work in your company. Once they have gone on to complete the assignments give to them they would be comfortable before they start off with their job and are going to focus all their attention on the job. They would not devote their time on worrying about things that does not have any relation to the needs of your company.
  • When you are having assessment skills, it does make your company look organized and flexible. It provides an expression of an organization that is really aware on what the needs are.

To simple it up the task of hiring new employees is never an easy one. A lot of unknown are there and just like any interpersonal relationship it does take time to know someone. When you are going to use pre employment assessment as part of the process of hiring, you are going to take the first step forward and create a positive impression on the candidates.
