The great resignation has left many companies stranded. In fact, many employers have faced the problem of many workers leaving the workplace en masse. This wave is known as the “Great Resignation.”

During this mass exodus, almost 46.6 million employees are reported to have left their jobs in the United States alone (according to the latest JOLTS report in 2022). However, now that the workforce is getting stable, employers should forget about the past and find another set of reliable workers to work with again.

Fortunately, with the right strategy in place, such as hiring talents using job aggregators like Jooble, industry leaders can retain their teams and connect with them remotely. This article discusses the seven ways to attract good employees after ‘The Great Resignation”.

1. Social Recruitment

Communication between recruiters and potential job seekers has long become like a conversation between old friends. Friends, nowadays, interact on Social Media. Playing by these rules, a recruiter has a great chance to study a person better: their hobbies, views, and aspirations. If a potential employee makes posts every hour, this indicates that work is clearly not in the first place for them. However, if people do not have a page on social media, this does not mean that they are not qualified for the job. But what is for certain: you should not invite people who share provocative or offensive content.

2. Steal Candidates from Your Competitors

If you are a desperate recruiter, then this method is for you. Follow the news of your competitors and pay attention to the posts about the best employees in their companies. Find these people on social media and offer them something they can’t say no to.

3. Street Recruitment

Everyone knows what web Recruitment is – but few are ready to try street recruitment. This method is good for cutting-edge industries in the job market: IT, Marketing, Gaming, etc. Have you noticed how often we make small talk in the elevator, in line at the store, on a bus, cafe or just on the street? You can easily turn something “accidental” into something “useful”. You can ask a stranger a question (if it is appropriate): “What’s your job”? This could be the candidate you’ve been trying to find for so long.

4. Word of mouth for recruiting

It’s so hard for a recruiter to attract high-quality talent, but what is much harder is to detect it. If you heard from someone that there is a hardworking friend of a friend who is looking for a job, you need to invite this person for an interview, even if their experience is different from the experience needed for your open vacancy. Remember: It is not the employee with extensive experience that brings value to the company, but the one who has a passionate heart.

5. Attend Industry-Related Meetups

For example, if you are looking for a programmer, you must attend all events where programmers get together. These can be conferences, presentations of new products, meetings with angel investors, etc. In simplicity lies genius!

6. Wear a branded T-shirt

This is a case when such a usual gift from your company can become a real tool for finding a valuable employee. Sometimes people want to work for a particular company, but they do not have the courage to send a resume. Perhaps they need more information, but they do not know anyone who could answer their questions. And then they see you passing by in a T-shirt with a logo that they have been dreaming of for a long time.

7. Search where others don’t

Very often, before applying for a new job, people take courses: foreign language courses, programming, design, etc. Contact a coach and say that the students can reach you out after successfully completing the course. There might be good candidates among them.
