🤔 The average hiring time in Germany now reaches 154 days—a significant period that could impact business efficiency. 🚀 𝗦𝗼, 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁? 1️⃣ 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Optimize the flow of information within your hiring team and maintain consistent contact with candidates by utilizing communication tools and establishing protocols that ensure quick feedback and follow-up. This reduces uncertainties and keeps candidates engaged and informed throughout the hiring process, cutting down on delays caused by miscommunication. At Product People, we also have detailed documentation and templates for all hiring stages as well as an extensive FAQ that covers common questions and we find it very useful. 2️⃣ 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲: At Product People, we believe that culture fit and transferable skills are more important for the job than the experience listed in the CV. Our tip: ask a few targeted questions that test critical thinking and culture fit. There might be certain answers to the culture fit questions that will lead to a rejection since you know that for people with certain beliefs, your work style and culture won’t be a good fit. This maximizes the chances of having a good candidate from the beginning. 3️⃣ 𝗜𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: Develop a strong employer brand that clearly communicates your company’s culture, values, and benefits. A compelling employer brand attracts quality candidates more quickly, encourages faster acceptances, and reduces the time-to-hire by creating a positive initial perception of your company. For example, we’ve realized that our weekly webinars attract really great aspiring and Junior PMs. You can also invest in building an appealing career page, showcasing employee testimonials, and highlighting unique benefits that differentiate your company from competitors. 🔗 Despite these efforts, if you still find yourself in need of immediate product management expertise, our services can fill that gap. We provide skilled interim product management professionals who can quickly adapt to your team’s dynamics and drive your projects forward without interruption. 💪 Are you in this situation?
