Topic: Digging Into RecruitingBlogs.com v1.24: Dan DH Harris and Sean Rehder) to spend a day engaging an amazing organization on the full range of Staffing and Recruiting Issues. I tackled the big picture and "why" questions of Recruiting Strategy. Dave focused on microsites and the general "How" question. DH dug even further into precise sourcing tactics. Sean gently touched on the "architecture of community". It was amazing to be in a place where those ideas resonated. It allowed me to see that a fully implemented Recruiting Strategy has (at least) four main components: The Current State of Things (What we have, how we got here, weaknesses and strengths) The Strategy (Where we want to be and how we want to get there, the plan for all recruiting, tactical guidelines...sourcing hierarchy.. which too to use first) Sourcing (Candidate Acquisition) - Gathering and Articulating the Current Requirement - Media Planning and Candidate Acquisition - The Network Energizing Function (outreach, networking, ongoing value to the community) - Data Cataloging, Mining and Maintenance (keeping the data live, growing and up to date) - Detailed Data Acquisition (enthusiastic data acquisition) - Short List Development Hands On Recruiting (Presenting and Closing The Deal, Refining The Requirement) We were fortunate to be in an environment where everyone clearly understood that transactional reactive recruiting is a great way to make long term mistakes. It also became clear that the downturn will be a great time for retrenchment and reconsideration of strategy and the architecture used to implement it. I am seeing more and more firms trying to get their arms around the process of identifying all of their potential hires well in advance of the requirement (even years). They are using economic slowness as a way to retool for the future. Lots of people in our industry are on the receiving end of difficult economic news. While there is general agreement that those who survive the next 18 months will be long term winners, it's still hard to see who they will be. There are lots of financial pressures on organizations that looked strong yesterday. The cool thing about Mendoza is his resilient focus on doing things for others. He tends to stay away from the sort of patronizing help that feels like pity. Rather, he thinks long and hard about how to help other people make money. We talked at length about how Recruiters might productively use the downtime. Here are some suggestions (blame me for this, Dave just got me thinking): Slow economic cycles are inevitable in recruiting. Success means learning ho to thrive in them. Look at the opportunity and the 18 month horizon line, Failure comes from over focusing on the immediate challenge. Retool. Rethink your strategy. Where do you want to be in five years. Take some time to figure this out and write it down. Spend an hour each week thinking about the ways in which you can be helpful to other people. Do two specific things to make someone else's business better each week. Read about the changes in the environment. Old industries are dying and new ones are forming. Which category are you in? Take the time and energy to personally and actively reject a candidate. Many of us hide from this human process with form letters, dropped email and unreturned phone calls. Take ownership of the dark side of the work. What is your greatest weakness as a Recruiter? Make a plan to improve in that area. Are you doing something productive with unplanned free time?
