What’s are the two most used tools in recruiting? The resume and the interview. It just goes without saying that both will be done for every skilled job. (Granted, lots of retail and restaurant jobs don’t require a resume, just an application.)
But, are those the best two tools for finding the best employee? Maybe, but shouldn’t you count on it. You should consider using data, to help you find the best candidates.
Additionally, are you looking at which employees are the most successful in their jobs? And are you recruiting specifically for those skills which have been shown to be effective in your business? Use that data.
