Hiring Strategy

Project details

What we need
  • Recommendations on active and passive recruiting and proper channels to pursue candidates
  • Guidelines for hiring process, including order and number of interview rounds, reference checks, and general best practices for an inclusive interview
  • Effective interviewing techniques and clear, consistent standards for evaluating candidates
  • Tips for negotiating details such as compensation package and title
Additional details

HIAS Pennsylvania is hiring many new staff and have had a problem especially in recruiting individuals.

What we have in place
  • We have been reassessing our hiring protocol internally, so all the information should be easy available.

    We have had many hires in the past year and are looking to more hires in the future, so there is a lot of information to get started.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,806 , allowing us to use that money to reinvest in our organization, perhaps to recruit and retain more talent.

HIAS Pennsylvania has been able to gain funding to help more immigrants with direct services, but have been unable to fill positions, meaning that even though we have the financial resources to serve more individuals, we have been unable to.
