Recruitment audit

Finally you have received the ok to hire someone, and now you feel reluctant: you have to create a job description, place an advert on the job sites, get agencies aligned - and still find no suitable candidate. Shouldn’t this be easier?

Let’s look at the strengths in your current recruitment process, and where you could make adjustments - even small ones - with great impact.

Why a Recruitment Audit?

A good employee who leaves. A team that grows. A vacancy that has been open for months. That new guy that everyone was so happy with at the beginning, who doesn’t seem to integrate that well. Recruitment and selection is, to say the least, a big challenge for many companies.

You have already spoken to several agencies, placed adverts, even tried headhunting ... and yet some functions can’t seem to get filled.

What now?

There are a lot of small things, that don’t necessarily have to cost a lot of money, which you can change yourself to your recruitment process, which can make a big difference. No miracles, no empty promises - just small, practical things that you can use immediately.

How does a Recruitment Audit work?

A recruitment audit is spread over 4 half days, which we organize together with you and a small team of key players in your company. In between the sessions you and your team will use the materials to start testing ideas and involving any other relevant people.

At the end of the audit, we will provide you with a concrete plan of action, tailored to your company, which will allow you to make small, but very powerful changes that have an immediate effect.
