However, you know that hiring the right candidate enhances work culture and increases productivity so, you don&#8217;t want to settle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, you can use a few simple tricks and tools to help make sure that the right job candidates are applying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enticing and Detailed Job Description<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t just write a list of duties.  Highlight a positive company culture that will catch their attention, followed by a detailed job description. Again not just a list.  Include real-time experiences that they will be a part of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discuss Internally<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you look to fill a new position, it is important to\nunderstand what qualities have been successful within the company. Talk to\ndifferent managers and employees to find out what they feel the best employees\nbring to the table. A good understanding of the specific traits that make for\nproductive employees in this environment can help you target your audience more\nclosely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Employee Referrals for Job Candidates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Employee referrals can be a  powerful tool for finding new employees.     <br>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shrm.org\/resourcesandtools\/hr-topics\/talent-acquisition\/pages\/employee-referrals-remains-top-source-hires.aspx\">Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM),<\/a> about 1 of every 2 employers offers a referral bonus program.   It&#8217;s in an employee&#8217;s best interest to recommend people who are skilled and responsible candidates.    <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Look into an <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Applicant_tracking_system\">applicant tracking system<\/a> (ATS) that can help you streamline the process.   When programmed correctly, they will filter resume keywords so that only the job candidates who match your skill requirements make it though.  Saving hours of reviewing unqualified applicant resumes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Partner-up with an Accounting &amp; Finance Staffing Firm.&nbsp; <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A top rated accounting and finance&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/beacondlc.com\/employers\/#staffing-solutions\">staffing agency<\/a> understands the ins-and-outs of the accounting and finance candidate market and has a database of job candidates that they have vetted for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more hiring tips, check out:                                                                                           <a href=\"https:\/\/dlcinc.com\/red-flag-personalities-hiring-managers\/\"> Red Flag Personalities that Hiring Managers Should Avoid<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hiring the right candidate enhances work culture and increases productivity.
