Acquiring the right talent is a very crucial decision for any company. A bad crop of hires can be a bigger worry to any organization irrespective of its scale, operations or industry. Organizations cannot bear the cost of bad hiring. Organizations that focus on long-term growth do ROI analysis for each critical decision. A similar approach must be taken in the case of hiring programs.

Organizations must answer this question for themselves while hiring; are they focusing on short-term cost-saving or long-term gains? The latter must be the absolute business goal. Quality of hires should not only be a top priority of the business but it also must be non-negotiable policy.

Human Resource experts, worldwide, are in the favor of hiring the best possible candidates, considering the time, effort and cost involved in finding the right person-job fit. The success of employee post-hiring depends on whether the right candidates are hired in the first place. Excess time spent on training or managing personality conflicts can hamper productivity. Simply put, hiring the right talent for a role is better than fixing the problems that may arise due to bad hiring.

How bad hiring has costs attached to it?

Moreover, bad hires are more difficult to retain and will eventually make you recruit all over again. Typically, the cost of replacing an employee should also be factored in while considering a recruitment strategy. These costs must also be evaluated in terms of time and effort which eventually adds to the overall efficiency of the business.

There is nothing such as bad talent but only bad hires. The recruitment process needs to be thorough in terms of finding candidates that not only fulfill the requirements of a job role but also fit the culture of the organization. Recruiting managers to need to make sure that the talent that they bring in stays and is also engaged in the appointed role. A mismatch in the role and the candidate can lead to disengagement.

Another important factor to consider while hiring is your brand image. Employees are your internal customers and they must take away a positive impression of your employer brand. A bad hire is likely to have a bad experience at the job and that increases the chances of bad publicity. In the era of social media, information technology & where employees are well connected to platforms providing company reviews, you must work towards earning a positive one, for which hiring the right talent is a prerequisite.
