How To Fill Hard-To-Fill Positions

The TrainHR webinar is approved by HRCI and SHRM Recertification Provider.

Overview: The simple truth is that selection doesn't make candidates any better. The quality of your applicant pool ultimately determines the success of your hire. Since selection is a pipeline that begins with recruitment, finding qualified applicants is the first, and potentially most critical, aspect of the hiring process.

Some positions are relatively easy to fill. Both external factors, e.g. unemployment, and internal conditions such as high pay, good reputation, etc. can attract an ample number of qualified applicants. This webinar, however, focuses on situations where, for whatever reason, the typical recruitment practices fail to yield the desired results.

The session will begin with understanding the underlying causes behinds the shallow, or, in some cases, bone-dry, applicant pool. The discussion will then focus on more effective recruitment strategies. Finally, this session will explore a variety of innovative approaches for acquiring the skills and capabilities required to perform required job tasks.
Why should you Attend:

Trying to fill a position and not attracting a sufficient number of qualified candidates is akin to hosting a party and having nobody show up. This is particularly vexing since you have undoubtedly invested both time and expense - not to mention having critical tasks left undone or added to others plates.

This webinar will offer more effective, and cost efficient, recruiting strategies as well as help participants diagnose the underlying causes behind lack of recruiting success. In addition, the webinar will explore a wide variety of alternative strategies that can be implemented in order to acquire necessary talents and capabilities. Some of these will be short-term, stop-gap measures; others will take a longer perspective.
