Digitalization. What do we really put in this? And is it the case that all HR processes need to be digitized? Digitalization can seem like a big and comprehensive task, because where are you really going to start? We believe that it is a good idea to start where the shoe presses the most, and where you have the greatest gains to gain, for example by digitalizing the recruitment process. Hiring the right person in the right position is generally a good idea, because hiring the wrong person costs both a lot of time and money. It is therefore important to do it correctly, the first time.
Below are 8 good reasons why we think it is wise to go to digitize the recruitment process.
1. You want to attract the very best minds in your industry and to achieve just that you need to show yourself as the forward-looking and modern employer you are. By having a simple and digital recruitment solution, where, for example, it is easy to enter their CV, you appear as a good option, when the wisest heads choose where they want to apply.
2. The new generation of workers expects a fully digital working day. In order to appear as an attractive employer, it is important that you take their wishes seriously.
3. Recruitment is part of the employee experience,and of course you want this to be as good as possible.
4. You want to attract the more of the right job seekers when recruiting. You simply want quality in quantity.
5. GDPR! By having a digital recruitment process, you eliminate both paper and emails and ensure that all personal information is processed and stored in a safe and appropriate manner.
6. It's faster! You can quickly clarify both who is relevant and who is not, which is good for everyone involved. After all, you want the candidates in question to be kept warm, while at the same time you want those who did not get through the eye of the needle to be notified quickly and can move forward in their job seeker processes.
7. Get the skills you're looking for! Have you experienced that the candidate does not live up to what he/she has written in his/her application? By asking strategic questions in dynamic question forms, you quickly clarify whether this is a candidate for you or not.
8. Spend less time (and money) on hiring. A good recruiting system roughs up the applications and allows you to easily find the most relevant candidates. In addition, a digital recruitment process will ensure that automatic e-mails are sent to candidates who have been rejected. Here there is a lot of time (and money) to save.
