As a recruiter, I like to think my role is the key to making great hires. But the truth is that recruiting is a team sport, and the best results require the support of a great hiring manager.

Talent acquisition is a crucial function of any company that works on government contracts. Your ability to fulfill the contract depends on having the right people with the right skills (and, in some cases, the right security clearance.)

The secret to a successful interview is to ask the right questions. Getting this right requires a great deal of planning, plus conversations with stakeholders to determine what you need to learn about each candidate.

When discussing the recruitment process, we often focus on the employee experience. Is it easy to apply? How do you communicate with candidates? How good is the onboarding process?

There’s a strong business case for supporting DE&I initiatives. An inclusive hiring process gives you access to a bigger talent pool, which makes it easier to find that perfect fit.

Recruitment advertising is a powerful tool. When you place an ad on Monster, Indeed, or a specialist job board, you'll usually get speedy replies from active job seekers.
