Every time you invest capital into your recruitment efforts, you’re stepping up to the plate. Like the best baseball teams in the nation (as to exactly which ones, we’ll leave that up to debate), you obviously want the most effective players on your side. Not only the top performers, but candidates who would best suit the environment of your offices and your culture. Let’s round the bases with a few coaching tips.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget to post job opportunities and promote your employer brand on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, through blogs, and on your company site.<\/p>\n Swing as hard as you can.<\/strong> Carry campaigns into other mediums. Have mailers than send recipients to your website, and have mailing sign-ups on your site.\u00a0 The more candidates you can gather, the smarter, more effective workforce you’re find yourself working beside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Every time you invest capital into your recruitment efforts, you’re stepping up to the plate.
