Building an effective hiring strategy begins with a solid, data-driven plan. Your Market Insights Report provides the crucial data you need to shape and optimize your approach.
Start by assessing your Hiring Difficulty Score. This will give you an understanding of how competitive your search might be and offer suggestions to make your position more appealing.
Next, refine your job title and postings. Using alternative titles can broaden your reach by aligning with the keywords job seekers use. If you're not attracting enough applicants, adjusting the title could significantly improve visibility. At Hoops, we often run multiple job postings with varied keyword titles to ensure we don't miss any qualified candidates.
Then, fine-tune your job description. The skills section will show you the common requirements employers look for in this role. Compare your listing with market expectations—are you asking for too much or too little? Adjust your criteria to strike a balance between quality and reach, identifying essential versus trainable skills to expand your talent pool.
Another important factor is talent availability. This section helps assess whether your expectations match the regional candidate supply. If highly qualified talent is limited, you might want to adjust certification or experience requirements to broaden your options without compromising on quality.
Finally, use the time-to-hire estimates in your report to plan accordingly. These predictions provide insight into how long it may take to fill the role based on average market trends. If time is of the essence, consider starting your search earlier, modifying job requirements, increasing sourcing efforts, or offering more competitive compensation to expedite the hiring process.
The best hiring strategies are grounded in data. Hoops' Market Insights give you the clarity and confidence to build an effective recruitment plan.
