Dear Colleague,

The most difficult and challenging part in HR, as far as my experience goes in the last three decades, is Talent Acquisition and Industrial Relations. Initially, I saw it as a problem like you, but later, I tuned myself to see it as a challenge and looked at it very positively.

In Talent Acquisition, it depends on the Brand Value of the Employer, Competitive CTC, Growth Opportunities, Meaning in Job Role, Work-Life Balance, and the type of market news about the company, among many other factors that the TA Lead has to face and overcome. Within this structure of challenges, one has to perform the following steps: Attract CVs, Bring them for Screening, Conduct Interviews, Issue Offers, and successfully Onboard. Each Talent Acquisition process is like how a mother gives birth to a child... that painful. Unless we have aggressive TA Consultants working for us, the factors about the Organization/Employer mentioned above create a tough environment everywhere, and similar challenges are experienced by many TA Leads in different organizations. It is not a time-bound job but a 24x7 focus job where a lot of background work is constantly needed, and every successful onboarding is a significant effort for the TA lead, all within the given TAT of TA.

However, it is not a big deal to overcome, and slowly we need to strengthen the Talent Acquisition process with clear focus points like good TA Consulting Partners to work with us, how we communicate about our organization, what CTC we offer, what growth possibilities are available, and many other factors that need to be strengthened. Eventually, the job will become an art and feel as simple as having a cup of coffee in your later career.

The moment you embrace the challenge, you will develop your style of TA and become successful. It took me ten years to master TA, but with your vigor and enthusiasm, you can achieve it much sooner.

All the Best, God Bless,

What problem are you facing? You have not explained or given details of the exact problem you have with recruitment. No one can offer advice if you do not explain.

If you cannot attract staff, then you need to look at your organization. Why are people leaving? What is wrong with your organization that people don't want to work for you? Those problems have to be solved first.

If it is recruitment, then that is a whole other ball game. I find recruitment processes very strange in India, hence a high rate of attrition. Do a search on my name as I have made many posts on the subject of recruitment and my simple guide on how to do it.

I have over 5 years of experience as an HR professional within an IT firm but have never faced problems in the hiring process. However, after the pandemic, the scenario has changed significantly.

- We offered according to their expectations, but candidates are not joining.
- We offered them the option to work from home.
- No bond policy.

We have tried every possible way to attract candidates to join, but the results come to zero.

I cannot understand where the problem lies or where I am lacking.
