We often focus on the moment when our new graduates step through the doors on their first day. But have you ever considered how the recruitment journey for them differs from standard hires? 🤔 💼 For standard hires, it's often about finding the right candidate who fits seamlessly into an existing team and role. The process can be more straightforward, with a focus on experience and skill match. 🎓 Graduates, on the other hand, embark on a unique journey. It's about nurturing raw talent, moulding potential, and helping them grow into their roles. The timeline can be longer, with internships, assessments, and thorough onboarding. ✨ Here's the question: How can we ensure that we provide the right support and engagement to keep our talented graduates fully engaged throughout their unique journey into our organization? 💬🎓 🤝 Understanding these nuances is crucial for creating a diverse and dynamic workforce. In our recent webinar with Rubberband. The recruitment network for all we touched on a few ideas.

When you hire someone with limited or no workplace experience, you are making a trade off. They are likely to be cheaper than someone with more experience, easier to mould to your working practices and be eager to impress. However they have lots to learn and will make mistakes along the way, they will require more supervision which takes time and energy, and they may simply be in for a shock when they realise the standards you require of them. So what can you do to ensure you are hiring employees that do adapt well to working in your company? Thinking about what is required for the job. Have you previously only accepted graduates for a certain role? The landscape is changing could an apprentice work? T-Levels are being introduced. These alternative routes into employment focus more on experience. “What if I train them and they leave?”, “What if you don’t, and they stay?” is a famous quote by renowned management consultant William Edwards Deming. We all recognise that everyone has to start somewhere. If you are noticing a trend that although good enough to be hired by you, new recruits are falling short in some ways, an investment in more training may be the obvious solution (although, timely use of probation periods is also an option if they really are hopeless!). There are lots of different ways of achieving this. Have you considered internships. They give you a chance to better understand the talent pipeline before you spend the money on hiring. Forewarned is forearmed: getting a feel for their strengths and weaknesses may help you design better person specifications for job adverts and understand what kind of training they might require. #hradvice #recruitment #experience #training

Hi everyone! My internship at Global Talent 2020 recruitment consultancy has sadly now come to a close, and what a 6-months it has been! Embarking on this placement was both thrilling and nerve-wracking. I anticipated that I would learn a lot, but little did I know how invaluable this experience would be and the highs and lows I would face along the way. I have been exposed to every aspect of the recruitment process and have been taught how to handle myself professionally in a myriad of situations. In this blog, I will be sharing my personal journey over the course of my time here and how I have navigated through the challenges that came my way. Why Global Talent 2020? Trying to find the perfect placement program is the bane of every student’s life; so when I secured a position with Global Talent 2020, I was overjoyed. From my first look at the company website, it was clear that this is a reputable company with upstanding values. This was proven when I met with the GT owners, Matthew Reeves and Andreas Maszczyk, along with the Senior Consultant, Ben Jones, throughout my interview process. They believe in adding a personal touch to recruitment which I thought was rare from what I had heard of the industry before. They place great emphasis on the fact that they are human, making their approach to recruitment more authentic and understanding of candidate’s and client’s needs. ➡ To read the FULL BLOG, visit https://lnkd.in/eZbGkNWZ #internship #internshipopportunity #internshipexperience #hospitality #jobexperience #careerdevelopment #teamculture #wearehuman #globaltalent2020 #officelife #opportunities #recruitmentagency
