If you look at the really successful companies like Google, you see that they have put the hiring process to the core of the company.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\">So, treating the process as the most important strategic planning your company needs is the path of survival. Getting high performing people hired and ready to work as quickly as possible is invaluable for being ahead of the talent competition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">In this article, we would like to share 3 tips\u00a0on how to make your processes faster and, at the same time, more effective!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\"><span style=\"color: #7db61c;\">Need for speeding up the hiring process is increasing<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">Of course, hiring is about people. That\u2019s why some companies tend to take their time to make sure they are recruiting the best talent for a position. BUT there are two major arguments why you should try to accelerate your process.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\"><span style=\"color: #7db61c;\">1. Hiring is a Business decision \u2013 unfilled positions are expensive<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">When communicating an open position, you have an objective need to find someone suitable to fill that position quickly. So, if there is no one who fills that need, you are in trouble because you are losing money for every unsolved task. Simply put, you have a business reason to find someone quickly.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\"><span style=\"color: #7db61c;\">2. Your best candidates might be scared off by long processes &#8230;and drop you!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">As a matter of fact, top candidates can choose where they want to work, as they might not be lacking offers. The longer your processes are, the longer you need to make a decision, the more likely those talents will bounce and go to another company. The hiring process plays a crucial rule in whether a candidate wants to work for you or not. An unprofessional and slow process is the number one reason candidates will turn down a job.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\"><span style=\"color: #7db61c;\">3 Tips for speeding up the hiring process:<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Define a clear competency profile<\/strong>: When defining the position that you wish to fill, think thoroughly about the hard and soft skills your candidate needs to have and specify them in the job posting from the very beginning. Establishing an accurate competency profile is a challenge and should be done carefully, as it is the basis for every following step of the process and for your final recruitment success. Mishires will cost the company a huge amount of money.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Screen candidate\u2019s job fit as early as possible:<\/strong> \u00a0After creating a competency profile, you need to make sure that you make a valid preselection of candidates. It is very time consuming to invite 15 candidates to a first interview if only 5 of them have the relevant skills. So, having reliable results about a candidate\u2019s fit as early as possible is the best you can do to ensure an efficient hiring process.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Use technology to speed up the process:<\/strong>\u00a0Modern times bring cutting-edge technologies. Why not use them to your advantage to enhance the quality of your recruitment? A proven method for efficient preselection is, for example, \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/viasto.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pre-recorded video interviewing<\/a>. It allows recruiters and operational departments to efficiently identify which of the candidates match the job criteria, without scheduling and traveling, but still gathering a personal impression of each interesting candidate before meeting them in person.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input\">Are you curious about how \u00a0pre-recorded video interviewing can help you make your preselection more efficient? Do you want to learn more about how to identify suitable candidates right at the beginning?<\/p>\n<p class=\"tinymce_structure tinymce_input tinymce_input_focus tinymce_structure_focus\">We would be
