Recruitment Blunders can be Avoided – Involve an HR Consultancy

For any organization, there is nothing costlier than recruiting an inappropriate person who is misfit for a desired position. Beyond the economic aspect, one wrong step here would additionally mean reduced efficiency and poor team dynamics. It is seen that even seasoned HR professionals commit this mistake, which thereby leads to grave consequences. Let’s see some of the top blunders committed by HR professionals in Pune and how an HR consultancy can rightly facilitate in that respect:

Preferring candidates with multiple profile shifts:Some HR managers in companies get impressed with candidates who have been into multiple roles. Fine, it is really good to see a person’s multi-talented quality or ability to take up variety of responsibilities, but that would also mean this person has hopped too many jobs. Again, the most desired element in “recruiting the right person”– subject matter expertise, may go entirely missing.

Owing to the disadvantages, a professional and experienced HR consultancies in Pune would rather concentrate on the job profile and then segregate resumes solely based upon experience and proficiency relevant to that profile!

Unusually high expectations, no job assessment:You can see a lot of positions vacant for a long time in some Pune organizations. Reason – HR guys in the organizations did not spend enough time assessing the job requirement and furthermore, have unusually high expectations from the candidate!

Even before posting the job requirement or calling upon candidates for interview, first significant step is to concisely assess job requirement. Professionals at a good placement consultancy in Pune will spend enough time in this respect so as to first know and set realistic expectations from the candidate.

Going by Illusory Appearances:People obviously “dress to kill” as a way to impress the recruiters. Even though, a lot of recruitment officials in companies are preyed to deceptive looks. Good dressing sense aptly matching up the office decorum is a welcome sign, but the real skill of an HR manager lies in “seeing” the person beyond looks or dressing sense.

Many recruitment services in Pune have deputed experts who can spot specific traits in the candidates and focus on their inner personality. In fact, these manpower service providers are largely preferred for their knack at identifying right candidates

Precisely speaking, an organization suffers in multiple ways whenever a wrong or inept resource is hired – waste of time, money and energy. Gladly, such ‘expensive’ recruitment blunders can be avoided when there is a smart scrutinizing process, well structured resume analysis and a practical hiring process. And these blunders can be assuredly kept at bay when organizations hire a professional recruitment solutions in Pune provider.

Exclusive Interview with Param Moorthi, Author, Speaker & HR Consultant at MUSE Consultancy

The policy, culture, compensation, benefits, employee relations and motivation fall on the shoulder of HR department, therefore, developing existing talents and recruiting more aces will be the best business strategy of any organisations today to stay viable or perhaps, outrun their competitors.

Ahead of our 5th Annual HR Agenda: Looking Ahead, part of our Global HR Excellence conference series, we spoke to Param Moorthi on the challenges the HR professionals are facing. Param is the conference workshop facilitator on “Operationalising HR Transformation by Embed-ding Continuous Improvement in Your HR Agenda”.

What kind of strategies have been adopted in your organization to build the right workplace culture?
In the past, the companies I had served like Schneider, Dell, Honeywell, AMD, they all had done one thing right. They made people their greatest priority. To have a winning culture they embedded policies that made the people own their own careers and they encouraged workplace diversity to enhance their values.

What do you think is the key approach to identify and develop the next generation of leaders from the current talent pool?

I have often said to my workshop participants that the philosophy of people are your greatest assets are no longer valid. They are important, but they can no longer be happy with such captions. As you can see, over the last few years, organizations big and small is more interested in developing talents. The focus is not on talents. People can be a liability actually. Especially in the current challenging economic times.

In your view, what are the main challenges faced by the HR sector regionally and internationally? What are the best solutions to these challenges?
Many wont like me for saying this but HR is in denial and that's our biggest challenge. We preach but we don't practice, we pretend to be at the table while we often get eaten on the table. The truth is, we are given people related issues to manage, People are dynamic, and therefore our role has to be dynamic too. We can’t afford to be stale. So the best solution, trans-form HR first, make decisions that make sense. Run HR like a business.

What is HR's role in reinventing the future of workplace?
Be the change agent and role model business behaviors. Have a meaningful business strategy and execute.

As budgets become tighter and workforce expectations getting higher, how do you achieve high employee retention rates? What are the strategies beyond traditional learning and development opportunities?I like to speak about the 4 E in every part of developing and retaining our talents. Yes, money is little to spend now, so we can't give rewards and salaries as how we used to be able to. Training and Development continues to be a great option. However, with the changing landscape of business and people. 4E is a better bet. You want to learn more about the 4E? come and attend my pre-seminar workshop.

Organisations are increasingly facing skilled labour shortages; how can HR assist the management to overcome these crisis?
I met a gentleman who runs a small business locally here in KL recently. I asked him if he wants training for his people. He immediately and abruptly answered me - for what? If I train them, they become good and leave!. If I don't train them, they may stay longer as they aren't employable elsewhere". What do you think of this gentleman? I don't think he knows that his people are so unskilled that they could be contributing so poorly and that his abusiveness is likely handicapped because of long serving and incompetent workers.

My take on labor shortage is to really seed from within. You will get longer mileage and more impactful engagement and retention by developing within. Many organizations are suffering with labour shortage because, either they don't have a robust succession planning and development process or they only focus on their N-1 or N-2 level successions. Why can’t succession and development be done at all levels? Do you think there would be shortage if we have clear planning? I think if you put serious efforts, then the answer is no.

Why One Should Use A Employment Agency

In this competitive era, getting a job is a difficult task unless one knows the proper network. The fact is - when you are in a job, you have a hard time to maintain that network and know about the vacancies in better places. Sometimes, you may also think of not to switch a job considering the hassle to find out a better opportunity. The Bitter truth is - unless you switch your job to a better place at the better time, you cannot reach the career point you have once dreamt of. Then what is the solution that can help you to find out the right opportunity?

The best solution for finding a good opportunity is using an Employment agency. Yes, the first thing that comes to our mind reading this is the amount of commission fee we have to give to the agency when we get a job. Frankly speaking, after graduating from a college no one wants to pay an agency part of his earning to get a job, but the thought will change when some important things are considered.

Landing a Dream Job

Have you ever wondered why do not you see most of the dream jobs sought by hundreds of well qualified professional? One of the main reason is - most of those big companies use an Employment Agency for hiring great professionals and never take the hassle of posting the job by themselves and going through the hiring process. It means you can only get an opportunity to work with those big names if only you are with the right employment agency.

Company Uses Employment Agencies

You have already realized that big name companies use employment agencies. In most of the cases, they pay the fees for the employee they hired. Therefore, if you get hired, there is a good possibility that you don't have to pay a single buck for landing the job. This way, you can have both - the dream job and not paying the commission fee. 

Negotiating Benefits 

One of the most uncomfortable parts of landing a job is negotiating the salary and other benefits with the company. When an employment agency like Maukerja is involved in the process, you don't have to face that uncomfortable situation. You can mention your expected salary and benefits to the agency while you become a member. The agency will represent you and your demands during the hiring process. 

When you consider these benefits, you can easily understand why it is always a better option to use an Employment agency to get a job. it reduces not only the hassles but also provide hundreds of new opportunities.

Yes, You Need an Employment Agency

Chances are pretty good that you make your own coffee most mornings. Although there are plenty of places to buy your coffee, when you make it at home (or in the office) it costs a fraction of the price per cup. Making your own coffee also saves you the time and hassle of driving to the coffee shop and standing in line. Smart people save time and money doing things for themselves.

When you are ready to hire a new employee, it is time to call the experts. I know you’ve been on plenty of job interviews in your life, you’ve read so many want ads you could write one in your sleep, and you have a sixth sense about people, but this is not your profession. Call an employment agency and let the experts, the people who do this everyday, help you.

Placing want ads, reviewing resumes, and fielding phone calls are time-consuming, especially if you are doing them for the first time or the first time in a long time. Employment agencies already have systems in place to handle all of the aspects of finding your next hire. They already have resumes in hand that could fit your needs, and they can tap into a wider audience with your job ad than you could ever imagine.

While the employment agency is fielding phone calls, collecting resumes, placing ads, and screening candidates, you can continue concentrating on your business. They will do all the leg work for you, and get it done better and more efficiently than you could. You call a plumber to fix a water leak; call an employment agency to find candidates for your new position.

Saving money is a great do-it-yourself incentive, but too often the cheap comes out expensive. A more important sign of business acumen is knowing when to call an expert, and this is one of those times.
