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
What we have in place
  • We currently have a job description, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have admin staff, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,806 , allowing us to put the money towards the youth program itself.

We need to hire someone versed in Central American gang involved youth to offer them a way to get out of a lifestyle that will lead them to prison, and to make this community open space safe for the rest of the community. It will also elicit the youth's stories, which will be used as an advocacy tool for violence prevention.
