What does your recruitment ideal look like? We’re guessing you want someone to hit the ground running. Someone who can take up the slack from everyone else AND fit in with the rest of crowd straight away.
Is it really reasonable to expect a newbie to deliver all this?
We say yes – and it’s all down to dynamics.
Dynamics: the forces or properties which stimulate growth, development, or change within a system or process – Oxford English Dictionary.
When we talk about dynamics in a recruitment context we’re referring to how your existing staff work together and what a new person can bring to the table. Within your team you’ll have a pecking order with different personality types bringing out the best in everyone. Even if you’ve not engineered it that way — if your team is working well — you’ve got good dynamics. When you add to the team you need to make sure that finely balanced dynamic is not upset.
Recruitment is never just about the one job in isolation. Ever.
And that’s what Gotcha’s Talent Dynamics is all about. It’s why we refer to it throughout the process – it’s core to successful recruitment.
- Understand the core values of your company. Matching values is just as important as matching skills.
- Find out where your company is heading. It’s important you recruit people who embrace the journey and support you moving forward.
- Show you how to profile the rest of the team. Yes, you read that right. We actually set up an online test for the rest of your team so we understand the collection of personality types you have.
Armed with the above information we can find someone who will slot into your team and fit. Talent dynamics really works for us and companies we help secure new employees for. It’s why 98% of our placements stay for at least one year.
