Contact our Recruitment Experts... Job Boards Just Aren’t Enough

If you have been advertising a position within your company for a significant period of time already (a few months of more) and you have had no success in filling that position, something is wrong with regards to your human resources approach or the way in which your human resources personnel are working in this area.

This is the perfect time to contact the recruitment specialists at KeenHire so that we can help you find a solution for your recruitment problem fast.

Sometimes contracting someone to fill a very important, integral role within your company can take a very long time. When the job that you are advertising is one of the most important within the company, decisions should never be taken lightly and it is hard to find effective employees for these integral roles, because they are, more often than not, already employed elsewhere.

However, if the position that you are trying to fill is one further down the ranks in the company’s hierarchical structure and you have had no success over a number of months, there is something that needs to be fixed in terms of your recruitment approach and it needs to be fixed fast.

Recruiting Problems: How Unemployment has Clouded the Candidate Pool

How has the recent period of unemployment made it difficult to hire the right person? Why do you need to advice and expertise of the hiring and selection specialists at KeenHire now more than ever?

The issue is that the increased levels of unemployment have generated a large number of people looking for work, but a large number of people of poor caliber.

In general, the employees who are worth anything in any way have already been snapped up by other companies and this has left a large volume of “employee dregs” at the bottom of the recruitment pool. The human resources training team at KeenHire is ready and waiting to lead you through the process of effective recruitment in these times at any time.

We have a number of different processes, programs, strategies and ideas that we want to share with you as soon as possible, and in particular our Conscious Hiring Process, which will help you to filter out the garbage and employ only the very best.

2011 marks anew for all industries alike. The Staffing Industry is not immune to change, nor should it pretend to be. Since 2009 a lot has changed, and the Staffing Industry is becoming a whole new animal. From Margaret attending the Staffing Industry Executive Forum in Miami, we've accumulated some valuable information for anyone and everyone involved with the Staffing Industry.

Recruitment: Why Change is Good

Global employment is changing rapidly. Within the last 20 years, we've witnessed highs and lows that have redefined the way talent is acquired, assessed, and implemented into the various business environments of the modern world. This change has been a result of global events, government regulations, and a changing economic climate that has demanded efficiency.

An Employment Rant From An Outsider's Point Of View

Getting hired hasn't been a problem for me, nor do I foresee it becoming one in the future. Saying that may surprise many people, especially given the current state of employment in this country, but I'm not done... I'm 20.
