Each organization has to start somewhere to improve recruiting, hiring, and retention of valued employees. The tactics and opportunities detailed here are your best bets for recruiting the best employees. Here's how to seal the deal.

recruitment
Improve your candidate pool 
To improve your candidate pool, invest time in developing relationships with university placement offices, renowned colleges, other recruiters, and executive search firms. Make your employees actively participate in professional associations and conferences. Keep a watch on the online job portals and boards for potential candidates. To advertise for professional staff, use professional association websites and magazine. You can also look for potential employees on LinkedIn and other social media tools. You can also utilize your website. It is an opportunity to shine and a highly effective way to attract candidates today. The key is to build your candidate pool before you need it so that you can hire the best talent as per the requirement of the company.

recruitment
Make your employees a part of the hiring process
Involving your employees is highly beneficial in the hiring process. They can recommend excellent candidates to your firm. They can assist you to analyze resumes and qualifications of the potential candidates. They can help you to interview people to assess if they are potentially suitable for the company or not. Employees are the assets for the company. If the organization is not involving the employees in the recruitment process, then it is under utilizing the important resources. This will provide them an opportunity to learn something new and maintain interest in the company, thus retaining the employees for long. Your employees will brag that your organization is a great place to work. The candidates will believe the employees before they believe in the corporate literature.
Make creative presentation   
At the beginning of the recruitment process, you have to present, giving details about your company. The only way to do that well is to practice at least once before the actual presentation. Lack of preparation will make you look unprofessional and unprepared in front of the candidates. To avoid this, do a rehearsal in front of your head or equivalent head of the company. Utilize your ideas to help your organization succeed and grow. They create a workplace that will meet both your needs and the needs of your potential employees.

recruitment
Take time to prepare before interviewing a candidate
Small preparation is must before the interview. Take sufficient time to take out the print of the resume and familiarize yourself with the candidate’s work history and background. This is also the perfect opportunity to prepare four or five key interview questions before you walk into the interview room. If you don’t give a look at the resume, the candidate might point out that you haven’t looked at his or her resume and might be an embarrassing situation for your company, as the candidate will carry a bad impression of the company. Also ensure that your interview rooms are tidy and presentable.
recruitment
Never keep a candidate waiting for long
Making the candidates wait for a long time, may discourage them, even the experienced candidates. As a recruiter, it’s your duty to make the candidate feel comfortable and relaxed. Don’t pretend to be busy. Making them wait may be painful for them, especially the freshers. Always offer them a glass of water. Make sure that you don’t test their patience for hours. Even after the interview, if you've made a decision, don’t make them wait. Time is always your enemy in recruiting process. Contact the selected candidate as soon as possible within a day or two at most. By doing this, you ease not only your hiring stress but also the candidate's post-interview waiting period stress. It shows how eager and enthusiastic you are to make them a part of your company. Remember don’t keep them waiting in anticipation.

Show the money to the selected ones
If you find any candidate fit for your company, then speak up about the payroll. Tell him or her in detail the basic pay and benefits offered by the company. The benefits may mean standard benefits such as medical insurance, retirement, and dental insurance. Describe how bonus plans work. You will come to know whether the candidate is happy with the salary offered or not. Never make perk promises that you cannot keep. Don’t boast about the facilities offered by the company just to impress the candidate. If the candidate joins, he may expect those things and if he will come to know the reality, then it may disappoint him. This may affect his work to greater extent and may gradually switch to another job.

recruitment
Send them with offer letter
You can provide the offer letter to the selected candidates within a short period. Ensure that the salary and the benefit terms are clearly written down. Include all elements of the offer: job title, base salary, benefits, vacation, holidays, perks, etc. You can send the letter via email or their respective college (in case of college campus recruitment) or their respective address via courier. Mention the date of reporting and joining without fail.

Feel the pain of the rejected candidates
In some cases, the vacant jobs may be less than the number of applicants. Therefore, you may shortlist a few among the bulk candidates who have appeared. It is necessary that the rejected candidates should carry good impression about the company even if they are rejected. 
Remember, a satisfied candidate might tell a friend about his positive experience but a disgruntled candidate will tell at least 10 friends how appalled they were with their interview experience. And there’s no stopping damage they could bring to your company’s reputation when they begin their social media tirade. 

 Treat them with due respect and be sensitive to the candidate's feelings. At the rejection, you can thank those candidates for appearing. You can wish them best of luck for the future opportunities. In case you couldn’t find time to contact the rejected candidates during the recruitment process, you can mail them the same. This will console them and at the same time, this will imprint good image of the company in their hearts.

These specific actions will help you with recruiting and retaining all the talent you need. In today’s corporate world, the competition is on peak. It’s crucial to assure that the people you hire can do the job, contribute to your growth and development. You should also go for background check of the candidate before you actually appoint him.
