不良的招聘决策的成本高涨-英文全文

The Harvard Business Review points out that as much as 80% of employee turnover is due to bad hiring decisions. A poor hiring decision for a candidate earning $100,000 per year could cost, on average, $250,000 according to Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM).

A recent survey by Robert Half showed that one-third (36%) of 1,400 executives felt the top factor leading to a failed hire, is a poor skills match.  This does not take into account general performance issues. The second most common reason (30%) was unclear performance objectives.

Five Tips for Better Hires
1. Know what you want. Don’t recycle past job descriptions because chances are the role has changed. Take a fresh look at your needs and the skills you’d like to add to your team. A detailed job description will help reduce the number of resumes you receive from unqualified applicants.
2. Look for the intangibles. A candidate’s skill set isn’t limited to functional abilities – it also includes how well he or she works in a collaborative environment. Employers that don’t take soft skills such as leadership and communication into account may set themselves up for a bad match.
3. Make a personal connection. Hiring is more than just identifying a strong resume or profile – it involves having conversations with applicants to establish a rapport. Interviews, for example, allow you to delve deeper into an applicant’s qualifications while also assessing whether he or she is a fit for your corporate culture.
4. Use all your resources. Though you may have the final say, hiring should never be a solo effort. Take advantage of the tools available to you at your organization – for example, human resources can help with the job description, and your employees may be able to offer referrals.
5. Woo your top choices. In any economy, people in high-demand may have multiple job offers. You need to show them why they should choose your organization over a competitor. Sell the benefits of working with your firm, and offer a compensation package in line with – or ideally, above – market rates.
