Introduction
To effectively complete recruiting efforts there are guidelines that should be followed including time management. In early April, 2008 the newly hired recruiter Carl attempted to hire 15 new employees for Marla in the Operations department. Carl was hoping for a start date of June 15th; however in late May he discovered the application packets were incomplete, orientation materials were not order and the training room was reserved by another department for the entire month of June.
Key Problems
Below are the key problems that were identified:
• Incomplete applications
• Mandatory drug screening not complete prior to employment offers
• Communication breakdown between Recruiter and Operations Manager
• Training room not reserved within timely manner.
Alternatives
Of course there are several solutions to the above problems. Before employment can be offered to any applicants, their applications should have been complete; which includes the mandatory drug screening. The drug screening should have been the determining factor for selecting the applicants in the first place. The recruiter could have used the help of Human Resource Personnel to assist with completing the application process. Communication should be a factor in this case. When the Operations Manager contacted the Recruiter on May 15th, a month prior to the June 15th start date, the Recruited should have verified if the training room was reserved and materials ordered for the new hire orientation.
