Building Your Talent Pipeline to be a Future-Ready Workforce

As long as the whole world holds its breath during the current unprecedented situation, the present business environment has created numerous difficulties for businesses. From an employment perspective, as hiring is one of many business processes, it is also likely to be impacted by the outbreak. What we need is a shift in the mindset from seeing this as struggle, to how we can turn it into an opportunity.

So, here we lay out how to maximize this time in the hiring cycle, when onboarding might be slower than average, and describe how to keep your pipeline full of the best talent on JobNet.com.mm for when you’re ready to bring in new talent, be it now or sometime in the near future.

Step 1: Set up your “Hot Lists”

Hot Lists compile lists of jobs that your organization frequently searches for such as Sales Director, Sr. PR Manager, etc. To set up a list, click the down arrow of “Admin”, and then choose “My Hot List”, so you can unlimitedly build your hot jobs/candidates list by giving name and description. By saving candidates to a Hot List, you can build a pipeline and a talent pool for future use to refer back to at any time.

Step 2: Screen and sort CVs faster

Efficiently screening and sorting CVs is one of the biggest challenges for HR and recruiters. JobNet figured out that challenge and wants to help you leverage it. Under “ATS”, you can move and categorize incoming applications, such as those which passed an Auto-screen questionnaire, for every job that you have easily into a relevant folder (rejected, shortlisted, interview, hired, etc.). This helps you keep track of all your candidates in every stage of the recruitment cycle; maintaining visibility into seeing only what you want to see while keeping track of your entire pipeline.

Step 3: Notes for individual candidates

While screening candidates under “ATS”, you can write about notes by clicking “Message” in order to save all relevant information about candidates (e.g., interview notes, conversations, reference checks, blacklisting, etc…). You also can save the candidates depending on their role by tagging with Job Function like Sales and Business Development to easily find them later. Giving a score or grade them helps you find your best candidates later on without having to remember what they said or how they performed in an interview some time ago, and it is saved in your database forever.

Step 4: Filter for future

Not only notes, tags, scores, and application status mentioned above but also personal details and career history help your future rediscovery by using “Saved Search” feature as keywords for advanced search filters.
