The Recruitment Process
Through the Eyes of the Hiring Manager


Generally speaking, the recruitment process has several steps to it.

Everyone is different based on your career development plan and job search strategy.

But there are several key concepts that are common to most employment hiring activities.

  • Step 1
    • A vacancy arises within an organization. They have a requirement to fill and need to hire someone.
  • Step 2
    • A job description is written which details the skills needed for the job.
  • Step 3
    • A job advertisement is posted.
    • This could be to the job search engines or the career employment website. 
    • Or to any number of sites as listed in the job search strategy section.
  • Step 5
    • A list of qualified applicants is created.
  • Step 6
  • Step 7
    • A candidate is identified. And the active job application process begins.

Of course the process described above are different from person to person...but having an idea of what you might expect will go a long way.

Employment agencies and staffing organizations are designed to help locate qualified candidates. They guide job seekers through the hiring process.

This is a relatively simplistic way to look at the job placement process. You will probably go through most (if not all) of these steps at some point during your career search.
