It is more important than ever before to do the unconventional when it comes to attracting the best people in an effort to improve workplace productivity. The conventional approach to attracting candidates simply won’t put you in front of the people you want to be speaking with… which in most cases is not the segment of the population that is actively looking for work.The workforce subdivides pretty easily into three broad groups… the 20% who are actively looking for work, the 20% who are fully engaged in their present job and would be really hard (and expensive) to woo away, and the 60% in the middle who aren’t actively looking but who also aren’t fully engaged in what they are doing.

Frankly, they tend to be a better catch than most people who are actively on the job market. They tend to be better performers, they tend to be more loyal, and they tend to have figured out how to make even challenging relationships workable – be it with a manager, coworkers and customers.
Most important, because that 60% in the middle have figured out how to make it work, they haven’t reached the threshold of unhappiness that would have them decide it was time to update their resume and enter the job market. Therefore, any organization that requires a candidate to submit a resume in order to be considered is actually putting up a barrier to entry for the poised candidates they most want to reach.
The HiringSmart solution makes it easier for poised candidates to find you and introduce themselves… those who choose to can even get their first interview done online, at their convenience. No resume required.
