Below are four key recommendations for supervisors regarding recruitment provided by the Talent Acquisition team:

Crafting a comprehensive position description is the cornerstone of a successful hire, laying the foundation for finding the ideal addition to your team.

Diversity is essential for innovation and organizational success. Ensure inclusivity in the hiring process by adopting diverse sourcing methods and implementing unbiased search and selection practices. Continuously consult the Equity Council Search and Selection Guidelines

Stay informed about employment laws and regulations related to hiring practices, such as equal employment opportunity (EEO), non-discrimination, and fair employment practices, to ensure legal compliance throughout the hiring process.
