Before we start 🏁
Before we start we need to get some information to hit the ground running and align on the right priorities.
You will send us the job descriptions for the roles you would like us to work on If available you will send us the (estimated) hiring plan for the next quarter(s) We have an intake call to discuss all requirements of our cooperation: Discuss the roles we will be sourcing on and hiring priorities Define scope of our work (sourcing, screening, scheduling, offering, onboarding) Discuss process requirements (e.g. usage of ATS, frequency of update calls, etc.) Discuss templates to be used to approach candidates and information that can be shared Discuss companies not to be approached from Discuss current recruitment process Confirm start date of our cooperation Plan follow up meeting to discuss Start cooperation: Hiring plan 🗺️
Depending on the availability of data we will create a hiring plan in the first three days of our cooperation.
If available we like to receive data on (if available):
Conversions per recruitment stage We will do a market research on the following data points:
Analyses current employees on LinkedIn Example of market research We will create a sourcing strategy based on your requirements Example of sourcing strategy Together we will create an expected recruitment funnel based on your and our data
Example of recruitment funnel Discuss overall hiring plan and optimize recruitment process where possible Plan daily, weekly and monthly communication moments Communication 🤝
We like to be in continuous communication with you. However, we have a set of predefined communication moments during our cooperation.
Daily
In the first week and sometimes the second week we have a daily check in to discuss our progress. We give a short update on our actions and our progress and discuss any questions that might arise.
Weekly
Every week we have a half an hour update call to discuss our progress. We discuss candidates that are in the process, share some of our learnings and discuss the priorities.
Monthly
Every month we have an hour review of our cooperation. We share the actual number of all the activities in the month, compare this to previous months and if needed to external data. We share learnings from both sides and agree on the priorities for the next month.
Quick communication: Slack / Whatsapp
With several of our clients we communicate directly into their slack. With other who don’t use slack we communicate via Whatsapp.
