Finding just one talented employee in this job market can be extremely difficult.  Finding an entire top performing team-from key management to critical support staff-is downright daunting.  But this is the task all businesses face at one point or another.   

The traditional recruiting methods aren’t enough anymore.  It used to be simple: the employer would place an ad in the newspaper and receive a stack of resumes of qualified candidates the next day.  At one point, the employment websites provided employers with tremendous help in finding great candidates.  Today, there are over 20,000 employment sites with millions of resumes and jobs posted.  Most likely, the last time you ran an ad in the newspaper or posted one on line, you were flooded with resumes, emails, phone calls and faxes from unqualified candidates.  Going through every resume and application can take a lot of your much valuable time and get in the way of things such as making money and managing.   

Too often, the task of the selection process is delegated to the staff member who has little or no training to do so.  Every individual given the hiring authority should be properly trained to identify qualified candidates. The recruiting process is more than just interviewing and making final hiring decisions.  It requires a lot of planning, organizing, knowledge of certain legalities, people skills and patience.
