It’s no secret that there are multiple stages in the recruitment process when things can go terribly wrong, that’s why the best recruiters do everything in their power to keep a rein on the things they can control, while agilely navigating the things they cannot. 

One of the most effective times to truly set the stage for success and excellence is during the requisition intake process. Unfortunately, this is where many hiring teams drop the ball. 

Join us for a free webinar, sponsored by hireEZ, with Erin Johnson of Forrest Johnson Recruiting on Wednesday, April 27 at 11am PT / 2pm ET, as we cover the essential components of a properly executed intake meeting. Attendees will learn what (and who) they should bring, what information they should gather, and how to manage the expectations of stakeholders during the earliest stages of the recruiting process. 

Key takeaways will include: 

  • Positioning recruiting as a strategic ally 
  • Influencing without power
  • Asking the two most important questions
  • Developing candidate profiles
  • Deciding which information to gather
  • Deciding which information to share
  • Ensuring success
