Most HR Departments in the Caribbean are manual affairs. They still use pencil and paper, moving around cream colored files filled with paper resumes…fresh off the printer. Advertising is done via newspapers, recruiters or word of mouth. A few even send out random Tweets.
As a Professional, you know that better options exist. There is software which promises to automate the entire process. But you have never used it, and aren’t sure where to get started. Plus, does it really save time and how – what is the process from start to finish if you decide to sign up?
There isn’t a painless way to get answers to these questions…I know, because I just tried. Most companies don’t tell you what the process is until you have made your first payment…essentially, you are buying what Caribbean people call “puss in bag.”
I just came off the phone with the folks at Caribbean Employment Services, our newest conference sponsors, and they’ll be trying to change this state of affairs. They’re willing to give you, an HR Professional, a chance to use their software service for three months.
Unlimited.
In other words, you can advertise for as many jobs as you want during that trial period, saving yourself well over $1000. But they aren’t just handing you cash.
They actually want you to learn…to educate yourself on the ins and outs of online recruitment. And here, I’m not talking about throwing up stuff on Linkedin.
What I mean is…the kind of recruitment that gives you analytics, so you know exactly how to manage the process to minimize costs. Also, you’ll be able to create a dashboard which gives you insight into the entire pipeline of prospective employees. This could be the kind of People Analytics your CEO has been wanting you to provide for ages.
So don’t delay in signing up for a fresh experience. Jazz and her team at Caribbean Employment Services are waiting for you to link with them. Also…this offer won’t be around forever, so don’t miss this chance to inform yourself.
