職場雙語:企業(yè)出新招 吸引最佳應(yīng)聘者
來源:網(wǎng)絡(luò)發(fā)布時(shí)間:2010-03-02
Small companies that are managing to hire during the downturn face a challenge: Too many candidates are applying to the companies’ job listings. As a result, some firms are trying creative methods to find the best applicants.
那些在經(jīng)濟(jì)下滑時(shí)期仍在招聘的小公司面臨著一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn):這些公司的招聘名單吸引了太多的求職申請(qǐng)。因此,一些公司正在想出新辦法,以找到最佳應(yīng)聘者。
Take, for instance, I Love Rewards Inc., a 38-person consulting firm that advises companies that want to implement employee benefits and performance-based rewards. I Love Rewards, based in Wellesley, Mass., and Toronto, recently received 1,200 applications for nine job openings.
拿I Love Rewards這家咨詢公司來說。這家公司位于馬薩諸塞州以及多倫多,現(xiàn)有38名員工,主要為那些希望實(shí)施員工福利和基于業(yè)績的薪酬的公司提供咨詢。最近該公司的9個(gè)職位空缺接到了1,200份求職申請(qǐng)。
Instead of reading through each resume, the company sent an email to each applicant, thanking the candidates for their interest and asking them to attend an open house in Toronto. Only 400 showed up. ’That’s self-selection,’ reasons Razor Suleman, the company’s founder and chief executive. ’It’s so easy to apply for anything but 800 didn’t take the first step. That lowered the screening process.’
I Love Rewards的員工們(左)在快速面試中向應(yīng)聘者提問。I Love Rewards并沒有瀏覽每份簡歷,而是向每位求助者發(fā)送了一封電子郵件,對(duì)求職者有意謀求公司職位表示感謝,并請(qǐng)他們參加在多倫多的一次開放參觀活動(dòng)。結(jié)果只有400名求職者到場。該公司創(chuàng)始人兼首席執(zhí)行長蘇勒曼(Razor Suleman)說,這等于讓他們自己篩選。求職者到處申請(qǐng)職位很容易,但有800人都沒有邁出第一步。這縮短了篩選程序。
Over a few hours, Mr. Suleman and 31 of his employees arranged the two-story office so that the first floor was designated as an area where employees could mingle with the candidates. The second floor became a so-called speed-dating area, where the prospects had one-on-one contact with the employees for a few minutes.
在幾個(gè)小時(shí)內(nèi),蘇勒曼和手下31名員工對(duì)他們兩層高的辦公樓進(jìn)行了布置,第一層被安排為求職者可以和公司員工見面的區(qū)域。第二層成為了所謂的速配區(qū)域,有希望的求職者和員工進(jìn)行數(shù)分鐘的一對(duì)一接觸。
’It was perfectly systematic because everyone had a time slot,’ says Mr. Suleman. ’And in five minutes, we’d ask a few questions and see if they were right for the role. It was different but so efficient because you could remove people who aren’t wildly enthusiastic.’ By the end of the evening, the team had found the top 68 candidates, who will be called back for group interviews and then individual interviews.
蘇勒曼說,這種系統(tǒng)安排很完美,因?yàn)槊總(gè)求職者都能得到一段時(shí)間。在5分鐘內(nèi),我們問了他們一些問題,看看他們是否適合這個(gè)職位。這種做法與眾不同,但卻很有效率,因?yàn)槟憧梢耘懦切┎⒉皇欠浅嶂缘那舐氄�。到�?dāng)天晚上結(jié)束的時(shí)候,該公司選出了前68位求職者,隨后將給這些人打電話,請(qǐng)他們?cè)賮砉緟⒓有〗M面試以及隨后的單獨(dú)面試。
