Haven’t Hired in a While? Advice for Recruiting New Hires

Raza Rauf on January 7, 2012

After a period filled with economic uncertainty, many companies are facing a new dilemma. They now need to fill positions that were either vacated or eliminated over the past several years. The problem is that many companies have had a freeze on hiring for long enough that they’ve gotten out of the practice of hiring altogether.

Here are a few tips that are sure to get you back in the habit of effective recruiting before you know it.

Know What You’re Looking For

Before you can come up with a proper recruitment plan you need to know exactly what kind of employee you’re looking to hire. What positions need to be filled? What qualities or traits make a prospect a good fit with your corporate culture? Are you willing to take big risks in order to find truly innovative staff or do you prefer to stick with traditional characteristics and experience for the position in question?

These are all important questions that can really shape the hiring and interview processes. Once you’ve identified the kind of employee you need or want to hire then you can begin the search in earnest.

Set Deadlines to Find Qualified Candidates

It’s easy to get lost in a sea of maybe and tomorrow. Time is a luxury you don’t have when you need someone to pick up slack or start making changes now. Give yourself a hard deadline to find a group of solid candidates and set up interviews.

Once you have a deadline in place you can tailor your search process to get the fast results you need. An added sense of urgency can serve as a huge motivation and help keep you on target for the “less glamorous” aspects of looking for new hires.

Utilize Every Available Recruiting Option

You are no longer relegated to a time when the Sunday paper was your best recruitment tool. The rules have changed and technology is changing them even more. Don’t forget to place notices of positions on your company website. Make sure you’ve made it mobile device friendly as well as many people are conducting their job searches on the go these days.

Take advantage of recruitment services, like Advance Temporary Services. You’ll be surprised at how effective they can be (and cost effective) by eliminating the daily grind of finding new, highly skilled candidates for the positions you have available. More importantly, they can do the hard work of prequalifying candidates for the positions you have available so that you’re only seeing the best of the best available and not forced to sift through many unqualified applicants that aren’t likely to be a good fit for the culture of your company.

Social media is another excellent tool you can put at your disposal to find a sea of applicants for your positions. You just might find the perfect choice in short order. More importantly, you’ll have a list of qualified people the next time a position becomes available.

Recruiting new hires doesn’t have to be a painful prospect – even after a long absence. This is cause for celebration; not dread. Just keep these tips in mind and you’ll have the cream of the crop knocking on your door before you know it. For help finding the best employees this year, contact Advance Temporary Services!

4 Things You Should Include in an Administrative Professional Job Description

Raza Rauf on December 21, 2011

A good administrative professionals’ job description should clearly and concisely state what the job entails, including the position’s purpose, responsibilities, duties, and qualifications. It shouldn’t be overly detailed or unduly simplistic, but the job description should be customized to the needs of the person or team who the assistant is supporting. An administrative professionals’ workload can vary significantly by company, but there are some general tips for putting together the job description.

Here are four areas you’ll want to include when writing a job description for an administrative professional:

1) Purpose of Position. Outline the basic role or function of the administrative position. You’ll want to include who the administrative professional is working for. Will the administrative professional be supporting a Manager, Director, or President of the Company? It’s essential to put into writing whether the administrative professional is employed to support one executive or a collection of positions to avoid confusion later on.

Include a general overview of the duties and responsibilities of the position, but don’t get too detailed — you’ll be providing the specifics in the “Duties and Responsibilities” section of the job description.

Take a look at this sample administrative professional position purpose: “To perform general administrative duties and provide support to the Executive Director as requested.

2) Duties and Responsibilities. Within the duties and responsibilities section, provide the exact primary task details of what will be required by the position holder. Typical duties of an administrative professional include booking travel, taking minutes in meetings, scheduling and managing a calendar, correspondence preparation, screening calls, opening and sorting mail, along with a host of other general administrative duties. Use a bullet format to list duties and start each task or responsibility with an action verb, such as sort, create, maintain, etc. To cover all basis, reserve the last bullet to include any other duties or tasks that may be required.

3) Minimum Qualifications. In the minimum qualifications section you’ll need to include the number of years experience working in an office environment or reporting to a particular management or executive level. Further, if the position requires educational credentials, such as secretarial training or an associates degree, you’ll also provide this information here.

Warning! Be sure to exclude any statements that could be viewed as against the Equal Opportunity Employment (EEO) laws, such as those making references to race, sex, color, religion, age, national origin, physical limitation, or mental disability.

4) Skills. Administrative professionals are often required to have extensive software skills, especially in today’s digital age. Make sure you list all required software skills, such as Power Point, Adobe, Photoshop, Word, Excel, Quicken, or any other software product unique to the business. Other skills typically required of Administrative Professionals include good communication skills, writing skills, dictation, transcription, records management, basic bookkeeping, basic website updating, and customer/client service.

After reading through the job description, administrative professional applicants should have a good understanding whether they have adequate knowledge, skills, and experience to carry out the duties and responsibilities of the position effectively.

How to Become a Valuable Employee and Keep Your Job Safe

Raza Rauf on December 14, 2011

In an employment market where there is a large pool of potential employees to replace you, it becomes very important for individuals to ensure they are on the same page with employers. To make sure that your job remains yours, be a team player and be a part of the company’s success. Now more than ever it is critical to do the best job you can and to always ensure you are one-step ahead of the game.

Be a Positive Professional

People like to work with others who have a positive attitude. Even if people around you are being laid off, keep your head up and keep being positive about your position. It pays to show your commitment to the company. You also need to ensure that the layoffs happening around you do not do anything to affect your performance on the job. You want your employer to see you as a solid employee.

Ensure You Are Visible

One of the easiest things for an employer to do is to cut the job of an employee that is not as important as other employees are. If you want to ensure your position remains safe, work to increase your visibility. You do not want to try to become invisible when layoffs are out there. Rather, you need to ensure that you have a great relationship with your superiors and that you are always helping the company in some way. This gives the employer the ability to think, “That Joe, he’s always working hard.” They should know you and trust you as an important asset to the team.

Work to Improve

In addition to doing the best job you can, always look for ways to improve your value. If you can do your job and do the job of someone else well, that means you are more valuable to the company. It is important to ensure you have the strongest skill set possible when it comes to doing your job. When there is a new assignment, it pays to be the one that can step forward to take it on rather than being the one that fades into the background.

Polish Up Your Job Performance

It is always a good idea to do your job properly. Don’t be late for work. Do stay late if you need to. Don’t use your work computer for non-work activities. Don’t be the reason for an argument in your office but be the solution instead. Don’t add to the expenses of a business, but find ways to reduce them. It pays to show your superiors that you know things are tough and that you are doing your best to help the company.

It is impossible to protect yourself from all job losses. However, the more important and valuable you are to a company, the more likely the company is to keep you around. Don’t be anything less than a team player who is working to benefit the company’s bottom line. Doing so could help your employer look over you when job layoffs have to happen. Keep your job safe by being a valuable employee.

Job Offer Letters: What to Include and What to Avoid

Raza Rauf on November 21, 2011

People who enjoy watching horse racing are familiar with horses coming “out of the gate”. This term refers to how smoothly a horse leaves the starting gate, which can give the horse a good starting position in the race. It also helps to contribute to how successful the horse will be.

In a way, this idea can also refer to new employees. Hiring companies and new candidates know that a good start is beneficial to both. A good job offer letter can be the beginning component of this successful start. Here are some elements of what should be included in an offer letter, and what should be left out.

Job offer letters should specifically state the job title and location of the position. Identifying the job title confirms to the candidate what the actual job duties will be. Location is helpful if there are multiple locations for the company. The letter should also mention the start date of the job. These may seem obvious items to express in the letter, but they minimize confusion for new employees not familiar with the company. Effective communication of details sets the tone for good rapport with the company. In addition, a designated contact person needs to be stated on the letter.

Many companies are at will employment agencies. This means they have the ability to hire and fire at will. Some companies in a union environment have an established procedure for the termination of employees. Job offer letters should include information that the business is an at-will company so that new workers are aware of this from day one.

Letters should also clarify the compensation for the position. This may have been addressed in the job announcement and at the interview. For purposes of clarification, pay should be included in writing. This should not be done on basis of annual salary but what it will be per pay period. Knowledge of their compensation helps new workers when they need to make adjustments in their lives with their employment such as added cost of a longer commute.

Some form of feedback should be given by the new employee. This can be in the form of an email confirming receipt of letter and acceptance of employment. Some companies also make it a policy to have the candidate sign, date and return the letter verifying acceptance of the employment offer. Businesses need to make this decision based on their need. Any letter written should be simple, professional and direct.

Avoid making statements regarding job security as anything in writing can become a legal document if problems occur and arbitration is necessary in the future. Nothing should be mentioned regarding the length of employment. Personal statements should be kept out such as “we are sure you will have a long future with us”.

Confessions of an HR Manager: Why I Love a Great Staffing Agency

Raza Rauf on November 15, 2011

A special thank you to our client, Meredith Soleau, Human Resources Director at Ed Schmidt Auto, Inc. for writing this post.

I’ll never forget the first time I called Advance Staffing Services. I was beyond stressed.

My Lead Administrative Assistant was going to be out for a medical emergency, and we had no idea when she would be able to return to work. It was a total crisis. Visions of me answering the phone and making customer receipts danced through my head.

I needed help. Thus began the beautiful relationship between the Ed Schmidt Auto Group and Advance Staffing.

Finding help that day was easy. It was honestly easier than ordering a pizza. They delivered Jacque to our doorstep the next morning, and she was absolutely perfect. She handled the Administrative position much better than I ever could have, and she was already trained! We ended up loving Jacque so much that we’ve found her a permanent position in our company, and she is now our employee.

I’ve really relied on Advance Staffing over the years. I call them for a variety of staffing needs.

Temporary Assignments: They handle both short and long term temporary assignments.
Temporary to Hire: I can “test” and employee and decide if they would be a perfect fit before I hire them on my staff.
Direct Hires: They take care of my entire recruiting process.
Professional Search: They seek out the top talent in the industry and feed me the best. This is especially useful when you never stop recruiting for very hard to find, niche positions.

As the head of a small HR department, I’ve found there are many advantages to using a staffing agency.

Cost & Time Effective
My time is worth money. The time it takes to recruit, hire, and train an employee is valuable. And when I make a hiring mistake? It’s not as if I can just send them away. There are additional costs involved with replacing someone and leaving a position open during that time.

Advance Staffing removes cost per hire/cost of turnover concerns from the equation. If I am not 100% satisfied with whom they’ve sent – they send me someone else. If I need someone tomorrow – I have them on time, every time.

I no longer spend time to placing expensive help wanted advertisements, weeding through 100’s of resumes, interviewing, and waiting on background checks. I simply call them and they deliver quality people time and time again.

It’s Flexible
I need extra help during our busiest times of the year. The car business is cyclical, and I don’t want to be saddled with actual employees that would need to be terminated during out slower months. So whether I need a little extra help during our annual inventory audits or extra people to assist with customers, it’s great to know I can adjust my staff size with temporary help based on business need.

Forming Relationships
Jacque is a perfect example of how long lasting relationships can be built with Advance Staffing employees. She was able to show us her abilities, and when a position opened in our company, we were able to hire her. She was noticed as a top performer before I ever had to place an advertisement. A connection was made between us (the employer) and Jacque (the employee).

At the end of the day, that’s what human capital is all about. Humans.

Why it’s Important to Conduct Background Checks, and How to Do It the Right Way

Raza Rauf on November 4, 2011

There are many good reasons why it’s important to conduct background checks for all potential new hires. For one, people are not always who they say they are in the interview process. People will very often say anything to get a job, especially when there is an average of 10% unemployment rate in the country as of this article. Conducting a background check protects not only the company, but also the existing and future staff at the company, from possible issues such as workplace violence, theft and property damage.

Did you know that in just 2009, there were nearly 572,000 non-fatal crimes that occurred in workplaces around the USA? These figures were released by the Justice Department Bureau of Justice Statistics’ newly released publication, Workplace Violence, 1993-2009. Those figures may seem staggering, but more and more cases of workplace violence and crime are making the news daily. It’s important to reduce the chance of workplace crime by conducting thorough background checks as part of the new hire process.

A best practice for conducting background checks is to use a reputable employment background check company to objectively provide information on candidates before an offer of employment is made. This information can be obtained within a matter of days by a good background check company, but keep in mind that all candidates must give their written consent to this check. Require each candidate to sign a background release form, which gives you permission.

Another best new hire practice is to check employee references, from past employers. Find out if the candidate is being truthful about his or her work titles, duties, dates of employment, and reason(s) for termination. While sometimes a candidate may use an incorrect date or embellish actual work duties on a resume, look for glaring differences in the information provided by the candidate vs. the actual information received by references.

You will also want to require a drug test as part of the background check. You would be surprised at the types of people who are actively engaged in drug usage in this country – an epidemic that has spread to all socio-economic communities. Again, do this before making any offer of employment, and make sure to consistently check all candidates regardless of the job itself.

Lastly, work with a quality staffing company that can conduct background checks for all your candidates. This can save you a great deal of time and money with your recruiting efforts. Any candidates will have already been checked for criminal histories, drug use, false information, and more before they have a check to become part of your corporate environment.

4 Tips for a Long-Distance Job Search that Get Results

Raza Rauf on October 30, 2011

Several areas of the country have faced worse economic conditions than others. Some areas have been so depressed there is little prospect for opportunities for job seekers. As a result, many people have decided to conduct a long-distance job search to try and find employment in other communities. Trying to conduct a long distance job search can be a daunting task. The areas are unfamiliar. Following the right steps can make the job search easier.

Focus On Options

One of the surprising aspects of conducting a job search in another area is the greater competition with other candidates. It can also be a more time consuming process. It is necessary to focus and concentrate on the jobs being sought after in this job search, which may be different depending on the locale. For this reason, start by limiting the number of locations to search in. Take into account your personal situation and apply it to these areas. Look at cost of living, local schools, and quality of life. Many areas try to advertise to people moving to their areas by showing what their areas have to offer. Look into what areas have the best job prospects in your industry. Limit the search to twenty positions get a better idea of prospects in each area.

Access Your Network

Having a well-developed network can help uncover long-distance career opportunities. Friends and family who have relocated can be consulted regarding job opportunities. Professional contacts can also be utilized to learn of new job openings. Use online searches for terms like “telecommute”, “relocation assistance” and “remote” for the best results when looking for a long-distance job. Consider joining a nationwide professional association in your industry. These organizations offer job search assistance to members and direct access to unadvertised openings in different parts of the country within the industry.

Social Media

The use of social media has enhanced the ability to research information and communicate with others remotely. Sites like Facebook and Twitter allow more people to communicate from other parts of the country. Developing a professional profile and a strategic business network through these sites can help enhance job prospects. People very often share information on who is hiring and what kinds of jobs may be available. Sites like Digg and Stumble upon may give news and information about employment in several locations.

Register With Employment Firms

It is a good idea to register with a national staffing firm, like Advance Temporary Services, to access openings across the country. Getting involved with the local office of a national company gives access to resources for openings throughout the country. Representatives should be aware that you are willing to relocate to assist your job search. Contacting recruiters and search firms in the areas of interest can give information about employment markets.

A long-distance job search can be challenging, but not impossible if you follow the above tips. Using the proper resources can make it easier. Get a job start on your long-distance job search by working with the career experts at Advance Temporary Services today.

Why It’s Important To Conduct Background Checks and How To Do It Legally

Raza Rauf on September 23, 2011

The hiring of new employees can be sort of like walking a tightrope. It is important to find the right candidate with the qualifications and integrity to do the job, but in today’s hiring climate it’s impossible to accept clients at face value. To be effective in hiring practices involves delving into the background of applicants to get a better idea of their abilities and employment performance. However, this has to be measured with respect for the privacy of each individual candidate as well as staying compliant with relevant laws. The purpose of the background check is to help evaluate aptitude and skills and needs to be carried out with this the primary goal.

Verify Employment Qualifications

Any employer can be overwhelmed with the number of resumes received for an open position. There could be several applicants with outstanding qualifications to do a job. It can be difficult to determine one that sticks out. At the basic level, the background check is to determine if information provided by an applicant is true and accurate. It also helps paint a picture about the applicant beyond what is on paper or discovered in a short interview. Previous employers give an idea of what kind of work habits an applicant has. References can provide information on personal characteristics.

Protecting the Organization

The background check can be considered as a preemptive measure to ensure the integrity of the organization and the safety of employees. Individuals may not be appropriate for certain positions due to some aspect of their history. Someone with a criminal background may not be appropriate for a security officer position. If someone has had issues with substance abuse, they may not be able to work in a hospital with accessibility to drugs and medication. Certain kinds of information can only be found with a background check.

Legal Issues with Background Checks

One of the most important aspects of the background check is that information is gathered for job related purposes. Some activities of a background check may not be necessary. It is easy for an organization to go overkill in a background check to err on the side of caution. Before a background check is initiated, evaluate what the purpose is for it. Certain information such medical and credit history require written consent from the applicant.

Background checks may be somewhat different for applicants and should be planned on a case by case basis, however they must be consistent for all candidates. If an applicant feels they were discriminated against for not being selected for a job, they can file a lawsuit against the hiring authority. If subject to review, any background investigation needs to reflect being strictly part of the hiring process based on ability and not personal private information.

The background investigation can be an essential part of the hiring process. It is a tool that helps identify qualifications of applicants. The hiring authority needs to take care in collecting information to get what they require without violating the privacy of applicants.

3 Reasons Why You Should be Sending Rejection Letters to Applicants

Raza Rauf on August 20, 2011

Image Source: nokhoog_buchachon / FreeDigitalPhotos.net

For the busy human resources professional, taking the time to write rejection letters is probably the last thing on your to-do list. However, sending rejection letters can actually be a helpful way to improve your hiring practices and give your company a great impression at the same time. Here are three reasons why you should be sending rejection letters to applicants.

Reason #1 – It’s Professional

The hallmark of a truly great company is that is has a procedure for every aspect of how it does business, including candidate selection. As an HR professional, you know that you represent your company to the rest of the world. So, when it comes to eliminating candidates for whatever reason, it’s always a fair to keep candidates in the loop by sending a well-written rejection letter. The letter does not have to be elaborate or go into detail about why the candidate was not chosen. Keep it simple and respect the person who will be reading it on the other end. You never know, but the candidate you are rejecting now may become the perfect person for another opening later on, so it’s best to keep the door open a crack.

Reason #2 – Protects Company

Another good reason to send out rejection letters is to protect your company from unwittingly giving the impression of discriminating against certain protected classes of candidates. Every once in a while, a candidate who has not been chosen for a job can get upset and try to find a loophole in EEOC laws. The best way to reduce the chances of this happening is to send a neutral rejection letter to all candidates that goes something like this: “Thank you for your interest in our company. We appreciate your time and believe you have many excellent qualities; however, we have chosen to move forward with other candidates. We invite you to re-apply for openings at our company in the future.” That way if there is ever a question in the future, you can prove that you treat all candidates the same.

Reason #3 – Provides Feedback

Candidates who are actively seeking work are not only frustrated, they can be completely oblivious to how they are presenting themselves. That’s why it can be a nice touch to provide a little bit of feedback to rejected candidates when you send your rejection letter. Include a copy of their resume with the letter and make a couple of brief notes or highlight misspelled words so they can make improvements. Let them know you appreciated their interview skills. Include links to some helpful job search resources on the bottom of the letter. Little touches like this will give a great impression with candidates and they will remember the positive experience they’ve had with you.

5 Steps to Ensure Retention of Top Performers

Raza Rauf on August 5, 2011

It should come as no surprise that roughly half of all top performing employees are actively seeking new career opportunities. These A-list employees are typically those that have very high goals for their careers, and they will not be loyal to your company if something more attractive comes along. Companies that want to outperform their competitors had better take note of this trend and do something to keep their top performers, for maximum profitability. Here are some steps to ensure retention of highly motivated employees.

Regularly Evaluate and Develop Skill Sets

A good rule of thumb when trying to retain top performers is to know whom they are and recognize any rising stars among the employee roll. Doing this means regularly evaluating employee skill sets and developing those who show true potential. It can be easy to forget that there are valuable team members within the ranks of existing employees, since many are going to school for advanced degrees or participating in work training programs. Don’t make the mistake of only searching for these gems in new hires, as there are many achievers already at work in your company. Take the time to seek out these folks and do everything in your power to help them find their career path within your corporate structure.

Support Employee Mentoring

Mentoring can be a great way for you to be in more than one place at one time as an HR professional. Encouraging existing, seasoned employees to take an active role in the development of less experienced employees is a no-cost way of enhancing skill sets and employee morale. Mentors also have the added benefit of being given more responsibility, which gives them a sense of accomplishment and loyalty to the company. It’s important to match new hires up with seasoned employees early on for the best way to identify and retain top performers.

Provide Training and Career Advancement Opportunities

Top performers are not always interested in jumping ship solely over money concerns. Oftentimes, A-listers are just lacking a good challenge or career advancement on the job, therefore they seek this elsewhere. Any organization can benefit from putting in place a career advancement program for each department, so that high achievers can set goals and attain them while on the job. This serves both the employees and the company in that work will be of higher quality, there is a sense of accomplishment and top performers lead to higher levels of productivity among many team members.

Engage Top Performers for Maximum Productivity

To keep the best employees in the game, it’s a common practice to hold regular meetings and events to help them stay motivated and engaged in the success of the company. Give your A-list employees reason to come to work every day with challenges and tasks that are within their abilities. Ask employees through frequent surveys what other responsibilities, ideas and needs they have. Accept and implement new ideas whenever possible. This activity alone can provide insight into developing more educational programs that benefit all levels of employees.

Promote a Performance-Focused Environment

Every employee needs to feel inspired to do the work he or she has been tasked with. Top performers just happen to need a little more challenge in order to keep them interested. A performance based organization is the right environment for top performers. Be sure to set goals for each employee at employee evaluation time, encourage friendly competitions, and keep employees motivated for the best chance at retaining your key performers for the long term.

The evolving role of HR Professionals

Raza Rauf on July 2, 2011

According to an article, “The Changing Role of Human Resources” on the website for Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, pressures like increasing globalization, rapid technological change, tougher competition, and organizational changes make HR’s role in navigating these transitions vital, but different from their limited responsibilities of yesterday.

In shifting for “personnel” to “human resources,” HR had to become a strategic partner with the leaders of the business–to contribute to significant business decisions, advise on critical transitions, and develop the value of the employees–in short, to have a real seat at the table.

Dave Ulrich, author of “Human Resource Champions: The Next Agenda for Adding Value and Delivering Results,” lays out a path for the next generation of HR departments to follow. He describes a multi-faceted approach to delivering HR services that meets the needs of both employees and employers, and positions HR as a significant contributor to organizational success.

Ulrich writes the “new” HR should be responsible for four areas within a company:

Strategy execution– as a strategic partner working to align HR and business strategy.
Administrative efficiency–as an administrative expert working to improve organizational processes and deliver basic HR services.
Employee contribution–as an employee champion, listening and responding to employees’ needs.
Capacity for change –as a change agent managing change processes to increase the effectiveness of the organization.

Making the shift to a new HR role will raise unique issues for every HR group that attempts it, Ulrich continues, but there are some common steps and activities that will increase the likelihood of success:

Strong HR leadership: A strong leader can develop a clear vision, motivate others to share that vision, and help them work toward achieving it. The HR leader will need to work both within the HR group and with the organizational leaders to reshape everyone’s expectations of what HR can and will deliver. The success of the change will depend upon HR’s ability to meet the real needs of the organization and the credibility it develops.
Acute future orientation: HR must understand how changing environmental, organizational, and workforce factors will likely influence the business, anticipate the associated HR needs, and be prepared to deliver appropriate solutions to meet those needs. By focusing on workplace trends, like the importance of intellectual capital in they way employees are hired and managed, HR can anticipate changes that will need to be made in company processes and respond “ahead of the curve” as opposed to reacting behind it.
Flexibility and creativity: Today’s HR group needs to be flexible and respond quickly as the organization’s needs and priorities change (as in globalization, for example).
Delivering value: HR is still often perceived, says Ulrich, as simply a non-revenue generating function. It is important to make apparent the value provided by working with the management team to hire the right people, manage them well, pay them appropriately, and build a working environment that encourages success.

Ulrich concludes that it is clearly time for a quantum leap in the HR field and stresses that everyone within a company can help this transition along by taking seriously the organizational pressures to change, helping to identify ways to measure the value delivered by HR, and conducting meaningful research related to all areas of human performance in tomorrow’s organizations.
