Finding the “right” leadership talent starts with a vetted pool of candidates [Best Practice]

Having trouble filling jobs due to lack of skilled talent that matches your specific hiring needs? According to ManpowerGroup’s 2013 Talent Shortage Survey, U.S employers have reported for the fourth consecutive year that skilled trades positions are the most difficult to fill. Finding the “right” talent can be a time consuming and rigorous process.

Hiring for key positions can become complicated when recruiting inexperienced prospects from unscreened candidate pools. But you can improve overall quality of hire and eliminate the resources wasted on unfit candidates by screening talent by your specific hiring criteria. Employers who start with a vetted pool of talent immediately improve their recruitment outcomes.

According to the Wall Street Journal, experts estimate it costs upwards of twice an employee’s salary to find and train a replacement. And according to a CareerBuilder study, 27% of U.S. employers reported that a single bad hire cost more than $50,000.”
