2.151 How to Run a Simple Recruitment Process for Small Business with Daniel Moussa

In this episode, Karen is  joined by Dan Moussa from Third Way Advisory, and we unpack what really makes recruitment work in a small business. We talk about why so many hiring processes go off track before you even post the job ad, how to spot the early warning signs, and how to keep your process simple without being sloppy.  In today’s episode, you will learn about The most common leadership hiring mistake Dan sees, and why it usually comes down to skipping the preparation stage.  The two biggest red flags your recruitment process is off track, including what it means when you are drowning in CVs or interviewing too many people without making a decision.  Why internal alignment matters more than the job description, and what to discuss with stakeholders before you brief a recruiter or go to market.  The referral trap, and how to keep your process consistent even when someone comes recommended.  How to think about hiring a “superstar” versus hiring the “glue” and what that means for culture, performance, and retention over the long term.  The reality of AI in recruitment, from AI written CVs to candidates using tools during video interviews, and how businesses can respond without panic.  What great onboarding and retention looks like in practice, including why monthly feedback loops in the first six months can make a big difference.  Make sure to subscribe to stay updated with new releases on Mondays!  Visit https://www.amplifyhr.com.au/ for more insights and resources.  Connect with Dan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-moussa-1307a522/Send us Fan MailDownload our free guide, “Getting Stuff Done Through Your People,” giving you the tools to build a culture where people take ownership, goals get achieved, and results follow.https://www.amplifyhr.com.au/downloadable/getting-stuff-done-through-your-people/
