One of the things that often happens when you become a supervisor or manager is that you’re invited to participate in the recruiting process. It could be because you’re now responsible for a team of employees. Or another manager will ask you to participate because you will work closely with one of their employees. Regardless of the reason, there are a few things that new managers need to understand about their role in hiring.

There are a seemingly endless amount of factors that come into play when conducting a job interview. Was the candidate being truthful when they described themselves on their resume? Was the job description accurate and thorough enough to attract the right batch of candidates? Are those in charge of hiring actually clear on what they’re looking for as they expand their team?

Workforce planning is a core function of human resources, and it’s key to the identification and analysis of what an organization is going to need in terms of its talent. Workforce planning determines what mix of experience, knowledge and skills are required to get the best people in the right roles at the right place.

It can be hard to quantify the importance and impact of a great company culture on a business' bottom line. But a recent Glassdoor study found that company culture is the single biggest predictor of employee satisfaction, regardless of employee salary. It makes sense that a strong culture can increase an employee's happiness, productivity and passion for their company.

With gender equity a topic of even a Super Bowl LI ad , it’s clearer than ever before that every CEO should be making gender equity a priority this year. Countless studies have shown the equal economic contribution women make in the workforce, yet companies still struggle to achieve the goal of equity, particularly in the areas that affect women’s upward movement the most: promotions and compensation.

I’ve mentioned before that I used to work for a boss who had me issue the same memo every year about tacit approval. The memo was designed to remind everyone of their responsibilities as a manager and leader as well as the basic principles of business. I was reminded of tacit approval recently and dug out the memo. Believe it or not, some ten plus years later…I still have it.

Failing to collect and retain the necessary records can result in fines, exclusion from government contracts and other sanctions. Following best practices for record keeping in your recruiting process will help to minimize your company’s risk exposure in the event of a government audit or lawsuit.

Is your company struggling to attract enough job candidates? Stop blaming the job boards, recruiters, HR or even the jobseekers. Maybe it's time for a job application makeover. The traditional job application form is a relic from the 1940s. Even with the shift to online recruitment, many organizations merely took the archaic paper application and digitized it, providing little room for companies to distinguish the most skilled and ambitious from the slacker.

During the annual performance appraisal , self evaluation forms a crucial part, because it coomunicates to the manager or the supervisor how well an employee perceives their performance within the organisation. While the objective of self evaluation is to ensure that the employee and the management are on the same page, a lot of employees view this as a scope to blow their own trumpet and go overboard at times.
