Key insights and resources

Attracting and hiring passive candidates

  • Candidates are out there, but we need to sell us and the job to them
    โ€‹Update your job ads to include 5 reasons why the viewer would make a great addition to your team, plus 5 reasons why you are an employer of choice.

  • Treat passive job seekers differently
    Don't expect an up to date CV or push an application form too early. Values don't show in a CV or application from, so take the time to contact passive candidates by phone. Referrals are 10 time more likely to convert to a hire, so the time investment will pay off!
    โ€‹

  • Remind your existing staff of the qualities you are looking for by sending notifications that ask:

    • "Who do you know that has experience of family care?"

    • "Who have you met that volunteers or shows concern for others?"

    • "Be on the look out for people who want a more meaningful job"
