Hi,
I just started with a new company. We are a firm of 27 employees. Since we are still small, everyone is asked to contribute to the recruitment and screening process. However, being the HR Manager, I am flooded with resumes from all the employees. What is a process that can be put in place for the company?
I should also say that 90% of the time, we do not even have job vacancies, but the owner would like to have hires in place in case something comes up. What is something that can control the amount of resumes as well as a system in which we can put the resumes?

First and foremost, you need to have an HR policy in place. You need to identify the genuine need for recruitment (and not just hire to cope up with the pressure of work). Selection has to be made based on certain parameters or criteria. Strict adherence to the selection criteria will automatically eliminate unwanted resumes.
You need to convince your owner about the recruitment process (not to hire when there is no requirement and the selection criteria should be followed, etc.). Also, convey to him that this is the standard practice in leading corporates.

Hi,
As Suresh rightly pointed out, you need to have your set of HR policies and procedures in place. Additionally, having technology installed for your recruitment management, vendor management, payroll management, leave, and attendance management would be of great use. Once you have these in place, you can look at devising strategies for your core HR activities.

Hello,
Depending on the type of organization you are currently working with, you need to understand their staffing requirements. For this, you need to speak to the owner about the organizational structure he wants to establish. Once that’s done, ask him for further growth plans and based on his future targets, identify where you will require more people and recruit accordingly.
Based on their job roles and requirements, set the criteria and parameters, and conduct the interviews. Ideally, recruitment should involve key people, such as the HR manager and department head if there is one, or the owner in the case of a closely held company.
I will be happy to help in any way if you are looking for anything specific.
Best wishes, Dimple
