The average cost of a bad hiring decision is at least 30% of the individual’s first-year expected earnings. A candidate search is more than just putting a job ad out and picking the best resume. As a full service recruiting and staffing firm, Recruiting Connection is an expert at conducting successful candidate searches. Our process is tried and proven, having been in the recruiting and search industry for more than 20 years. Our search process consists of these 6 important steps:

Every candidate search begins with a conversation with the hiring manager to find out what specific skills or culture fit they are looking for. Each company has specific needs and culture requirements. Not every search is alike. This is why our first step in the search process is having an open conversation with the hiring manager to pick her brain on exactly what she is looking for. What sort of industry experience does the candidate need? What kind of culture fit is she looking for? The search intake allows Recruiting Connection and the client to form a partnership for the good of the client.

Once everyone is on the same page, the sourcing begins. Recruiting Connection uses its deep network, vast database, and proprietary practices to source the best candidates on the market. Our team is dedicated every day to searching out the candidate that is the perfect fit for the client.

Our recruiters are experts at turning the heads of even the most passive candidates. For a hiring manager, there are certain limitations to reaching the right candidates. Recruiting Connection has the ability to have conversations with the candidates and sell the opportunity.

Every company has specific requirements for the skills and experiences they are looking for in a candidate. Recruiting Connection invests the appropriate time to truly understand candidate qualifications, potential red flags, compensation, and motivations. Our recruiters do the heavy lifting on screening and qualifying the candidates so the hiring manager only sees the top, qualified candidates.

We create win-win solutions for both client and candidate. Recruiting Connection’s full recruiting service also includes recommendations about competitive compensations and benefits that are based on the current job market.

Recruiting Connection is part of the process all the way to the end. Once the offer is out, our team is the intermediary between the hiring manager and the candidate. We help the candidate work through doubts and possible counter offers. The candidate is then hired and seamlessly onboarded.
