Hiring Frustration #4: No Hiring Process

In most companies, there is no systematic and methodical approach to hiring. The approach falls somewhere between an environment akin to the wild west and random and arbitrary events based on the personal experience of each hiring executive or manager.

We’ve identified the frustration of not having a rigorous hiring process to be one of the top 8 frustrations hiring executives and managers encounter in their companies. Our research over the past two decades also indicates that it doesn’t matter whether your company has 60 employees or 60,000 employees, the frustration of not having a systematic hiring process is painful.

In most companies, the hiring process is predicated on how each individual executive or manager decides to apply it. Who knows what goes on behind the door as the hiring executive or manager starts their interview? A lack of a structured and systematic hiring process is one of the key reasons hiring fails over 50% of the time.

Once a company adopts a systematic and rigorous hiring process, comparable to our Success Factor Methodology, hiring accuracy soars and the hiring managers are now able to consistently hire and retain great candidates at every level in the company.

We’ve conducted extensive research into hiring frustrations, mistakes, and errors over the past two decades.
