What or who do we give the credit to for a company’s success? It is the go-getter employees, who put in their hard work and intelligence to create an exciting workplace.
Now, more than ever, it’s important to find self-motivated, passionate and talented people to join your company. If your organisation is planning to continue work-from-home, you need people who can work independently and know how to be productive.
The go-getter is easier to identify if you follow the following steps -
- Screen with VideoCVs — Want to test how they adapt to change? Or know their communication skills? It’s one thing for the candidate to claim confidence and communication skills in a text resume but a completely different thing for you to see it first hand in their VideoCV. Companies such as Hiresome! knows exactly how to help you there.
- Take live tests — We all have technical or case study rounds for interviews, and even though they are assessed best during in-person interactions, the pandemic lead us to find remote alternatives. Hiresome! allows you to take live coding sprints and cases studies or assignments to assess not just the final answer but also the approach used for it.
- Challenge them! — Don’t ask mundane questions like ‘tell me about yourself?’ In interviews, ask them unconventional questions like — ‘what superpower would you want to have?’ ‘what would they change about the company if they were running it?’ ‘how to sell a pencil but not as a pencil?’ these questions reveal the thought process and life priorities of a candidate.
These steps are crucial not just for recruitment but also ensuring that candidates have a positive experience. CX is becoming a top priority among recruiters, the experience of candidates who didn’t make the cut as it affects the overall employer’s brand.
