The Recruitment Process to Fill your West Sussex Job

Good quality employees can prove to be difficult to recruit but you can't run a business without them! Filling your West Sussex jobs with excellent employees could literally transform a weak company into strong and successful business. AllWestSussexJobs is pleased to offer you some advice to get you through the recruitment process so you can find the perfect person for your West Sussex jobs.

I know it can appear as though these miracle workers are mythical and essentially impossible to find. The often commented on ‘skills gap’ can mean finding the ideal employees for your West Sussex jobs difficult for so how do you go about it?


Why is the process of recruitment so important?


The recruitment process is vital as if you get it right you greatly reduce the risk of hiring the wrong person for your West Sussex jobs. Get it wrong, and you might discover that you won’t even attract applications from appropriate candidates, much less find them during the selection process. This means you’ve spent good money on a flawed recruitment process.


An overall organisational strategy for resourcing and recruiting employees


Recruitment should not simply be seen as a process to fill your immediate employment needs but should be regarded as a part of an overall company strategy for resourcing and recruiting staff for your West Sussex jobs. Once you have filled one of your West Sussex jobs, you should have a record of applicants who you could consider for the same or similar West Sussex positions in the future. This will make the process much easier and cost effective next time.


Recruitment is not only about filling your West Sussex jobs


Recruitment is not simply about filling your West Sussex jobs. The process exposes your company to the public. Consider candidates as prospective clients so if an applicant has had an unfavourable experience with your company, you can guarantee that they will tell people about it and word gets about. It’s vital that the whole recruitment process for your West Sussex jobs creates an excellent impression of your business


How do you go about finding the right candidates for your West Sussex job?


Firstly, you have to draw up a ‘job profile’ ensuring that you do fully understand what you would like candidate for your West Sussex jobs. make sure you understand the legal aspects of advertising your West Sussex jobs (for example discrimination) before you start. West Sussex County Council websites will have some useful information.

You naturally also need to place your adverts for your West Sussex jobs somewhere to give them the maximum exposure. The most commonly used include:

• Job Boards such as AllWestSussexJobs

• West Sussex Recruitment Agencies

• The West Sussex Job Centre

• The Chichester Observer / West Sussex Gazette / Worthing Hearld
