Here are our Top 10 tried and tested tips:

Invest time and energy in the process to get the

right people.

1The Right RoleDon’t just recruit a like for like replacement. Roles change as the business changes, make sure you know what the role will do before you start looking for the person to fill it.

3Your Advert is Your BrandEnsure your advert reflects your brand; include values and behaviours and ideally the dates of the interviews. This shows you are serious about recruiting and committed to interview dates.

5Timing is CriticalIf you don’t prioritise shortlisting and interviews you will lose the talent as they will be snapped up elsewhere. The ideal process is four weeks from the close of applications to the offer being made and this allows for a two stage process.

9Interviews are a Two-Way ProcessThe candidate wants to ensure you are the right fit for them as well as you looking at whether they are right for you, allow them questions and ensure you are on brand and on message.

7Attitude Beats SkillsIt can be easy to recruit the right skills but if the candidates don’t have the right attitude, behaviours or values you will have difficulties throughout their employment. Skills can always be taught.

2Keep It Simple

Role profiles should be a summary of the role not a step by step guide on how to do it. Ideally this should be no more than two pages, one page if you can.

4Language is Key

Be aware how language may affect who you’re seeking to attract, for example, masculine and feminine language:Feminine: We’re a community of engineers who have effective relationships with many satisfied clients,

committed to understanding the engineering sector intimately.

Masculine: We’re a dominant engineering firm boasting many leading clients, determined to stand apart from the competition.

6Listen

During the interview you should be the one talking less. After your initial introduction ask the questions and listen to the response.

8Be Consistent

Ensure all candidates are asked the same questions. This ensures fairness and allows you to make a decision more easily.

10Professional and Fun

Interviews don’t have to be dull. Full on auditions may not be your cup of tea, but allow yourself and the candidate to have fun and relax in a professional way.
