Do you know your company's recruiting strategy?

What is your company's recruiting strategy?

Is it an Academy approach where you grow your own employees through rotations and leadership programs? Is it an acquire approach where you hire from the competition?

Whatever your strategy or situation, make sure you know it.

Second question - Who controls the strategy?

Does Recruiting, HR or the function control the strategy and the forecasting for this? Make sure that you are aware of the strategy and then are staying ahead of the forecasting. Knowing the strategy is a big difference maker. The overall result for you if you understand the strategy means you can operate in a proactive (predictive) mode versus a reactive (fire drill) mode.

Ultimately, the goal is to help you operate as a cool calm recruiting consultant versus running around like an emergency room doctor in a triage situation.
