If you have great talent on your team, it\u2019s likely that they are connecting with other great talent; either as personal friends, university alumni or via professional industry networking.<\/p>\n<p>Many organizations take advantage of their employees\u2019 natural connection to the company and other like-minded people to expand their reach for new recruits easily and in a very cost-efficient manner.<\/p>\n<p>Every employee is a walking job advertisement. So if you\u2019re not tapping into that potential employer branding channel, here are a few simple steps to get you started.<\/p>\n<p><b>Key Takeaways:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"large-bullets\">\n<li>\n<p>Be transparent with your employees about the position that are currently available within the company and that they have access to that information first.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Ask your employees if they know anyone looking for a job because they may have the perfect candidate in mind.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Have your employees attend networking events and have them be your personal brand ambassadors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img alt=\"7 Steps to Turn Your Entire Staff Into A Recruiting Engine\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zippia.com\/employer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/7-steps-to-turn-your-entire-staff-into-a-recruiting-engine.png\" style=\"width:100%;\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"fancy\" class=\"fancy\" id=\"7-steps-to-turn-your-entire-staff-into-a-recruiting-engine\">7 Steps to Turn your Entire Staff Into a Recruiting Engine<\/h2>\n<ol class=\"ordered-list-large\">\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Make Your Employee Experience Awesome<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It goes without saying that no one is going to invite their awesome friends\u00a0or acquaintances to work with them if they don\u2019t feel that your workplace is\u00a0sufficiently awesome.<\/p>\n<p>The brilliant coder your employee is chatting to at a\u00a0weekend BBQ isn\u2019t going to be interested in your upcoming position if his friend\u00a0spent the afternoon offloading his complaints about a controlling boss, shocking\u00a0benefits, or a demotivating work environment.<\/p>\n<p>What makes your workplace somewhere your employees would want\u00a0their friends to work? What can your employees boast about at the weekend\u00a0BBQ?<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t just ask your employees to rave about the workplace. Give your\u00a0employees something rave about!<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Be Completely Transparent About Roles Available<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Where possible, create a public job board where every employee can see the positions currently available within the organization. If you have a smaller company, and therefore less roles\u00a0opening up, send out an update of any new roles in an email to the team. This will ensure every employee\u00a0reads it and is aware of the vacancies.<\/p>\n<p>Give your employees first access to the\u00a0information about an available role. There is no benefit to keeping a vacant role\u00a0secret. One of your star performers may know the perfect candidate for a new role. But if they don&#8217;t know there&#8217;s even a vacancy &#8230; well that&#8217;s just a lost opportunity.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Provide More Detail Than Just A Job Title<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s an old saying in the recruitment world (when taking a job brief from a hiring manager), that &#8220;a job title and a few bullet points do not equate to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zippia.com\/employer\/your-6-step-job-description-checklist\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">job description<\/a>&#8220;. It&#8217;s no different when letting your team know what vacancies are currently open in your business.<\/p>\n<p>In order to assess whether their friend might be suitable, your employee will\u00a0need more detail than just a job title. Ensure you include sufficient information such as who the position\u00a0reports to, what skills are required, how much experience you are ideally looking for\u00a0and the ever-important cultural fit requirements such as values and behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>Providing this detail may even jolt a person\u2019s memory that someone in their network\u00a0has \u2018that exact skill\u2019 and may well be interested.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Keep All Your Available Roles Up To Date<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Trust is an important factor when it comes to referring friends. Your employees\u00a0need to know that the opportunities available are genuine. They don\u2019t want their referral spending a lot of time preparing an application only to be told the position is\u00a0already at final interview stage or was in fact filled a month earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Ensure the information you are providing to\u00a0your employees is up to date and accurate. Anything less erodes the purpose of\u00a0the entire job board to provide your employees with information for the task.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Ask Your Employees If They Know Anyone<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It seems obvious but many employers simply forget to ask! Encourage your\u00a0team to become your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zippia.com\/employer\/4-reasons-employee-stories-are-key-to-great-employer-branding\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">employer brand ambassadors<\/a> through their own social\u00a0networks. Employees are known to be reticent about offering personal\u00a0acquaintances for consideration. They don\u2019t want to be seen as\u00a0biased. They may also be worried about the fall-out on themselves personally\u00a0if the recommended friend or colleague doesn\u2019t work out.<\/p>\n<p>Either in a team meeting or through an email\u00a0communication, explain to your employees that you are completely open to their\u00a0recommendations of potential hires (even if there is no specific open vacancy at the time) and that you trust their ability to know who\u00a0would be a good fit for the business.<\/p>\n<p>Of course at the end of any job vacancy announcement, make sure\u00a0you include the invitation to recommend someone appropriate.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Referral Programs<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Providing formal benefits for your employees is the standard way of encouraging\u00a0referrals from your team.\u00a0Not sure if\u00a0a referral program\u00a0is the best way to achieve this?\u00a0Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zippia.com\/employer\/4-reasons-to-implement-an-employee-referral-program\/\">4\u00a0reasons<\/a> you should consider implementing one.<\/p>\n<p>Your business could receive qualified candidates right on\u00a0your doorstep with a properly designed and implemented Employee Referral\u00a0Program. The essence of an Employee Referral Program involves providing a reward\u00a0directly to an employee in return for a candidate they referred being hired for a particular\u00a0position.<\/p>\n<p>This reward could be any number of different types; one company\u00a0I know offers $10,000 for any senior candidate referrals after the new employee successfully passes their probation period. This is still a saving of at least 50% compared to a traditional recruitment fee. Another company offers a weekend holiday to an exotic island for the employee\u00a0and a friend.<\/p>\n<p>Employee Referral Programs should be designed to fit in with the\u00a0culture (and of course the budget) of the organization, rewarding employees in a way that is personally\u00a0motivating.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>Pay For Your Team Members To Attend Networking Events<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Now that your team members love your workplace, are aware that they can put people\u00a0forward for opportunities and have a strong incentive to do so, it\u2019s time to get them in\u00a0front of people who matter.<\/p>\n<p>Assist your team members to meet potential new\u00a0recruits and become your personal brand ambassadors by sending them to\u00a0networking events. These could be meet-ups for people of their particular skill\u00a0set, lunches or networking breakfasts.<\/p>\n<p>If these events need a ticket, pay for it. It will be part\u00a0of what they boast about to your future new employee and give them one more\u00a0reason to explain why your workplace is so great!<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div ckmz=\"zippia\">\n<div class=\"row\" onclick=\"location.href='\/employer\/?src=inlinePostAJob-3645';\" style=\"font-size: 14px;color: #333; background: #fff; width: 100%; border: 1px solid #d8dee2; border-radius: 0 0 5px 5px; padding: 20px; justify-content: space-between;box-shadow: 0 18px 20px -20px rgb(0 0 0 \/ 15%); margin:0px; cursor:pointer;\">\n<div class=\"col-sm-8 col-xs-12\" style=\"-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0,0,0,0); --vh: 12.87px;font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.42857143; color: #333; font-family: Open Sans,serif;font-style: normal; box-sizing: border-box;\">\n<div style=\"display: inline-block;margin-top: 10px;font-weight: 600;font-size: 20px;\">Get Started Hiring Now<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-sm-4 col-xs-12\" style=\"font-weight: 600;font-size: 16px;line-height: 24px; text-align: center; text-transform: capitalize; color: #fff; background: #ff6000; border-radius: 4px; height: 48px; border: none; font-family: Open Sans,serif; display: -webkit-flex; display: flex; -webkit-justify-content: center; justify-content: center; -webkit-align-items: center; align-items: center;\">\n<a href=\"\/employer\/?src=inlinePostAJob-3645\" style=\"color: white!important;\">Post A Job<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"fancy\" class=\"fancy\" id=\"recruiting-faq\">Recruiting FAQ<\/h2>\n<ol class=\"ordered-list-large\">\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>What are the steps in the recruitment process?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>The recruitment process involves six main steps and they include:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"large-bullets\">\n<li>\n<p>Planning<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Sourcing<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Screening<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Selecting<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Hiring<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Onboarding<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"ordered-list-large-item\">\n<p><b>What should you do to improve your recruitment process?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>To improve your recruitment process, you should be making the job more attractive.<\/b> If you are finding that no candidate is applying to your job, try making it sound more attractive to candidates.
