company and examine their evaluation. Ask your research
team to estimate the monthly financial requirements in
comparison to the competition. Instruct supervisors to get
the requisite production ready. Instruct the direct marketing
team to create ample demand. What about human resources?
If human resources, falls last on your allocation of time, then
you are missing the most basic key to success behind the
desired implementation in the various fields stated above.
The key that acts as an enabler for all the stated crucial
tasks is the manpower, without which any firm, irrespective
of size or nature, is dysfunctional.
Failures have always been attributed to various factors, but
such case studies always seem to overlook the importance
of hiring high quality and reliable people for the overall
operations.
Common Mistakes To Avoid When Hiring Skill Duplication:
Successful Directors, who started small, believe that they
know it all and this picture motivates them to replicate their
own skills while hiring. There is a tendency to ignore the
requisite diversity and this tends to create a shortage of
skill sets at a later stage. Therefore, to possess a
substantial working capacity, complement your present
resources rather than replicating them.
Lack Of Involvement: Various managers are of the belief that
the task of the Human Resources department is easy and
attention must be paid to other more important jobs. While
they save some time, by not being present during
recruitments, this lack of involvement leads to recruiting
inappropriate personnel for the job and wasting loads of time
and resources at a later stage.
Poor Job Definition: A scant knowledge of the requirements
leads to the selection of the wrong candidate, who is nothing
more than a burden to the firm. To hire sensibly, it is crucial
to first define the job responsibilities and the desired skill set.
The Conflict Between Departments: Deserving candidates
often are not recruited for the appropriate positions due to
internal company politics or lack of understanding between
various departments, which must be streamlined in order to
succeed.
Ignoring The Existing Pool: Firms at times are so focused in
identifying and recruiting new resources that Human
Resource managers have literally no time for the existing pool.
This tendency to ignore the needs of the already existing
employees creates unnecessary competition. So complement
recruitment with the correct retention strategies. A Final
Thought To keep up the pace with the competition and the
increasing requirements of the industry, look at the internal
procedures being followed while hiring and ensure that you
select the right candidate for the job. Hiring high quality and
reliable people, who know their job, is the key to success.
