Despite the current economy and job market, MBA recruiting problems persist, even in these trying times. Recruiters continue to wonder, “If the economy is so bad, there should be plenty of candidates out there, so why am I having such a hard time finding top leadership talent?”
If you are one of these recruiters, struggling to find the perfect match for your needs and in dire need of elite job-seeking candidates, MBA Focus is your just-in-time and year-round recruiting solution!
As recruiting budgets shrink, employers have shifted their budget from more expensive recruiting sources, like print ads and search firms, to less expensive sources like virtual recruiting online. MBA Focus has had a positive influence on this switch to virtual recruiting by cutting both recruiting costs and times. MBA Focus allows you to not only search resumes and career profiles of available candidates still seeking jobs, but also promote your open opportunities year-round to an exclusive pool of top leadership talent.
This new model of recruiting is not much different from historical recruiting methods. With MBA Focus, employers can still post their job opening (similar to print ads) and wait for resumes pour in. If you prefer a more hands-on approach, employers can also search for the specific talent their company needs (similar to using a search firm) with access to online resume books from more than 60 of the top MBA programs around the world, including:
- Chicago (Booth)
- Harvard
- Northwestern (Kellogg)
- Pennsylvania (Wharton)
- Michigan (Ross)
- Stanford
- Columbia
- Duke (Fuqua)
- MIT (Sloan)
- UC-Berkeley (Haas)
- Cornell (Johnson)
- Dartmouth (Tuck)
- NYU (Stern)
- UCLA (Anderson)
- Indiana (Kelley)
… and more than 45 other top schools from around the globe!
Don’t wait until you actually have openings to begin filling your talent pipeline! Employers learned this lesson the hard way during the last downturn. While the economy is still trying to regain its footing, there is a vast pool of talent out there both passively and actively searching for jobs. If your upcoming, ongoing, or critical “skills gaps” aren’t constantly being advertised for, you’re missing the best possible candidates! The best possible candidates are more likely to find their way into your talent pipeline if you advertise year-round. The odds of you finding the needle in the proverbial haystack of MBAs greatly increases as you advertising window expands to include the perfect candidates’ job-search window.
In summary, proactively looking for top leadership talent instead of reacting to openings will increase your chances of finding the best talent. It will also allow you to identify the best candidates “just in time.”
To start searching for talent for your just-time-time hiring and begin advertising your openings year round, go to the MBA Focus store at https://www.mbafocus.com/orders and search the resume books and buy job postings for the top 60+ b-schools today!
