Hiring the right people Step 2: Process any Number of Job Applicants in Less Than 10 Minutes

In this episode of SYS Hiring the Right People, Steve talks about how you can process any number of applicants down to a shortlist in a matter of minutes!     KEY TAKEAWAYS   You could spend days sifting through applicants and still miss the gems. Using a applicant funnel form (eg via google docs) can save you so much valuable time. Once your applicants have filled in your form, you can then export the data to a spreadsheet then filter and sort accordingly! All your questions bar one will be numerical or yes/no which makes filtering out and sorting to meet your criteria simple and easy. However, for your one long-form question you will need to use the app grammarly, which will give you a score on how good their grammar is as well as any errors. It’s an objective way to score applicants on their written English.     BEST MOMENTS   “Eliminate anyone who doesn’t meet your criteria”     VALUABLE RESOURCES   SYS Recruitment Series Resources: Bit.ly/sys-10   Facebook Group: Systems and Outsourcing Systems and Outsourcing Website YouTube Dr. Steve Day   ABOUT THE HOST Steve used to be a slave to his business but when he moved to Sweden in 2015, he was forced to change the way he worked.
