Common Hiring Mistakes

Undoubtedly, recruiting is difficult. There is no shortcut to staffing the top job seekers in your field. However, many hiring companies make the executive search process more difficult than it has to be.

Below, you'll find 4 common recruiting mistakes that organizations make and how the executive search professionals at KAS help to prevent these staffing mishaps.

• Too Fast or Too Slow - You don't want hire after interviewing a job applicant one time, though you don't want to leave an open job lingering for months. Often, when a job is open for an extended period of time, the project loses significant momentum and, subsequently the hiring mangers lose their drive to fill the position.



• Waiting for Perfection - Our recruiters have a saying that you can't judge your neighbor's lawn if your roof is in a mess. Until your company comes to the realization that the perfect job seeker does not exist, you're going to run into problems.



• Less Options, More $ - Many times, recruiting companies come to our executive search firm with a laundry list of requirements to fill the position. The problem with this recruitment method is that companies have less options and, due to their need for strict requirements, have to pay significantly higher salary.



• Realistic Budget - The job market is not much different from the Dow as it fluctuates based on a few factors, thus making it hard for companies who don't follow the ups and downs of U.S. hiring price difficult to navigate.
