Jaunty Coffee: Recruitment. Selection. And Onboarding
, A. Recommend two sourcing channels that could be used to recruit for the sales manager role and
provide a rationale for each sourcing channel.
To successfully identify strong sales manager candidates who meet all the requirements and align
with the culture Jaunty is working to build, LinkedIn Recruiter will be an excellent resource. This tool is
great because it allows recruiters to source passive candidates by networking and post jobs for
candidates to apply directly. Additionally, recruiters can review candidate profiles, which will provide
more insight into their past accomplishments, professional journey, and goals.
Another way to attract qualified candidates is by posting on job boards. There are a number of job boards
to choose from, including those that cater more to hourly support and laborers, others are industry-
specific, and even early-career job boards for college students and recent graduates. Most major job
boards feature talent pools and job listings from all professional levels and industries. For a sales
professional with management experience, LinkedIn would be the best job board to identify high-quality
candidates. Using these tools will build brand and job awareness, and either add to the candidate pipeline
or provide significant insights into market trends, giving recruiters an understanding of how to proceed.
B. Explain two communication tactics that should be used to communicate effectively with job
applicants during the recruitment process after candidates have submitted their applications.
It is essential for recruiters to establish trust and respect with candidates during the interview process,
and one effective way to do so is by practicing active listening and making them feel heard and valued.
Interviews are stressful for everyone, and most interviewers do not realize how much better the candidate
will interview and more accurate their responses will be if they are less rigid and formal, and take a couple
of minutes to put the candidate at ease. People are able to think more clearly and are more comfortable
sharing information with someone they feel comfortable talking to.
