Attracting & Preserving Top Talent

The importance of hiring the best possible candidates cannot be overstated. The difference in value between a good employee and a great employee increases with the complexity of the job. In a highly specialized or complicated field, the gap between bottom-tier employees and valuable top performers can be significant.

An enticing job description won’t be enough to attract top-performing talent to your organization. Candidates today are more interested in your overall employee value proposition, or EVP. They want a fulfilling position in a growth-oriented company with great leadership, and compensation commensurate with what’s expected from them.

Prepared job seekers will have searched sites such as Glassdoor and Job Advisor to see what current or past employees have said about what it’s like to work for your company. If your current Employee Value Proposition (EVP) leaves much to be desired, it might be time to consider making some improvements.

5 HR Tips for Retaining Talent:

• Accurately communicate job requirements before the hire is finalized. Losing a candidate to this type of miscommunication is easily avoidable.
• Create, distribute, and review thorough employee handbooks that outline company rules as well as its culture code, and oversee training protocols.
• Ensure payroll and benefits packages are administered correctly according to the terms stipulated within employee or contingent worker contracts.
• Manage performance issues promptly. Discipline is more likely to result in resentment or other negative feelings once problematic tendencies have been allowed to become habitual due to a lack of early detection and/or correction.
• Work with other departments to encourage contingent and full-time-worker cohesion and cooperation. Hiring contingent workers can be financially savvy, sure, but you’ll want the best to stick around, and they'll be more inclined to do so if treated well right from the start.
