    Are you making some of the most common mistakes when recruiting? Express Employment Professionals Crystal Lake can make it possible for your business to avoid the circumstances that lead to costly, time-consuming hiring errors. With our experienced support, you can look forward to reducing turnover and increasing quality hires while also enjoying savings in the categories of time and money.

    Common Errors Businesses Make When Recruiting

    Understanding common obstacles in the recruiting process can help you take a more strategic path to making hires. Errors to evade include:

    • Writing up a vague job description. You can't expect to draw in candidates who are qualified for the role if the job description isn't accurate. On the other hand, you may be tempted to write up a vague job description to save time and increase the number of applications you receive. We'll enable you to sidestep having to draft a job description at all, as we will ask you in-depth questions about the open role and find the right candidates in the Crystal Lake area for it in no time.
    • Putting too much weight on the interview. The interview is just one step in the recruiting process. It is also important to verify the candidate's employment history and skill set, follow up on their recommendations, and complete other vetting tasks. Simply going with your gut based on an interview without completing these other steps can lead to huge regrets. As we have a meticulous vetting process in place, you can have confidence that any candidates we bring to you for an interview would excel in the role.
    • Not communicating with candidates enough. When candidates don't receive adequate communication about a potential opportunity, they usually start looking elsewhere for a more responsive employer. This can lead you to miss out on great hires and also results in time wasted. As we will take care of communicating with candidates for you, we will help ensure each one receives the attention they deserve.
