When you think of what led any great team to success, what’s the first thing that pops into your head?

Determination?

Drive?

Teamwork?

If you said teamwork, you’re on the right track!

As it relates to recruiting, one tried and true staple of success, according to Harver.com, is collaborative hiring. 

Now some of you may be asking, “Oh, that sounds nifty, but what’s that?” and the short answer is the combination of internal networks/networking efforts and employee referrals or employee referral programs. 

Harver.com states that “referred hires generally are (among other things) more productive, more engaged and less likely to leave.” It only makes sense that combining efforts should yield better results! Furthermore, they cite that “this is one of the reasons we see an increase in employee referrals and employee referral programs – and companies that provide AI driven technology to automate your employee referral efforts.”

It goes hand-in-hand with some of the articles I’ve previously shared about marrying AI with human experience. Innovation at its finest!
