The Effect of Changing Demographics
Baby boomers looking to retire soon
By 2010
• Forecasted 6-8% more jobs than people to do them in the UK.
• Forecasted over 10m more jobs than people to do them in the U.S.
What is the Impact?
• Bad news for employers?
• Good news for candidates?
7
The Effect of Changing Demographics
For Employers– Need to see this as ‘climate change’
– ‘CYA’ becomes ‘CYF’
– Embrace the issue now
– Most of you are going to inherit the 2010 problem.
For Candidates– More choice for quality players.
– More movement, less loyalty?
– More self employed, less permanents?
More virtual organisations?
Keep a watching brief – this affects you!
8
Through a recruiter’s eyes
Why do we do it?• Changing people’s lives• Building teams• Building customer partnerships• Reward
What do we fear?• Being a “busy fool”:
– Unrealistic expectations– Fickle customers– Fickle candidates
The better chance recruiters have of succeeding, the harder they will work for you.

Looking for “IMPACT PLAYERS”
How the Recruitment Industry sees them…
• The 20% of employees who are responsible for 80% of the impact on a business
• They are different
• They are not always ‘applicants’
• They are not usually desperate
• They must be treated differently
• A “non-impact player” in one company might drive major change in another.

YOU THE RECRUITING MANAGER
13
Getting the best out of the recruitment industry
High Street• Local• Typically Junior lever, high volume• Fast, responsive
Advertised/Database• Mainstream lower to middle management• Put ads out, get CVs• Match CVs to jobs
– (often automated or inexperienced matcher looking through CVs).
Headhunters/Search• Perception: Posh people (Virginia Bottomley) in Mayfair, Board level• Actually: A method to fill hard to fill jobs, labour intensive.• Finding open-minded but non active candidates.
14
How to ensure you get the best out of recruiters?
It’s a seller’s market for excellent marketers with development potential
• Offer candidates something special or expect to be disappointed
Choose the right level of service– Do you want just CVs that you will screen?
OR– Do you want full project management?
• Agree what the recruiter will do for you.
Is what you are doing at the moment working?• Advertising• Preferred supplier list• Your network
15
How to ensure you get the best out of recruiters?
Build partnerships with recruiters
– Help them to be your best salespeople / ambassadors.
– Build loyalty from the recruiter
– Let them in to your business.
– Build knowledge & awareness of your business.
– Keep them informed of major company news/strategies.
16
Retained Or Contingency?
• Contingency (non exclusive)– No cost risk (no placement, no fee).
– More agencies working on assignment.
– Greater chance of success.
– Competition drives speed.
• But beware– If one of 4 agencies, they have 25% chance. They
need 3 other roles from elsewhere to have an even chance to earn money
– Best candidates will go to best clients.
– Speed reduces ability to be thorough.
17
Retained Or Contingency?
• Retained Assignments– More risk?
• why pay up-front with no guarantees?
– Because……….
– Both client and recruiter have ‘skin in the game’• Recruiter’s obligation to deliver becomes huge• Client is more focussed
– Allows project management for client and candidate by recruiter
– Freedom to deliver drives quality• Adherence to comprehensive recruitment process.• Delivered to a timetable• The best 3 put forward, not the 1st 3 half decent.
18
Good interviewing practice for Managers
“Time kills deals”
• Delay loses the best candidates
• Allocate the coordination to someone who has ability & time to do it
• Sell as well as Buy
– The day of the “why should I recruit you?” interviewer is gone
– You NEED the best people
– They NEED to be impressed
Unsuccessful candidates should walk away feeling positive about you and your company
19
Good interviewing practice for Managers
• Professional Interviewing techniques
– Read the CV and details in advance (!!)
– Behaviour based
– Personality based (cultural fit)
– Identify possible gaps to be explored and questions to explore with
– Breadth of experience? (number of things)
– Depth of experience? (number of times)
20
You the Manager
• Summary
– Be rigorous in what you need to offer
– Sell to candidates – they’re in the driving seat
– Is what you are doing working?
– Agree what you want your recruiter to do.
– Build partnerships with recruiters
– Sharpen your interviewing skills
21
YOU THE CANDIDATE
22
What You Should Consider
Everyone wants “Impact Players”
Ways recruiters identify them…
• Understanding Behaviour e.g.Four Social Styles
• Behavioural-Based Interviewing
Then, (and importantly) recruiters must……..
• Understand Candidates’ Motivations
23
How do you see Yourself?
Do you think enough about who ‘you’ are? ........
What really motivates you? • What makes you tick?
• Why do you get out of bed every morning?
If you were a brand, what would it look like?• What image do you portray?
• Is that image the real you?
• What is unique about you?
Why would you hire you?

PREPARE FOR BEHAVIOURAL-BASED INTERVIEWING
Past behaviours and performance are an accurate indicator of future behaviours and
performance.
Enables the interviewer to get the best out of each interview
Helps determine occupational personality traits
Removes guesswork and assumptions
Adds value to the recruiting process
35
BEHAVIOURAL-BASED QUESTIONS
Questions typically start in one of three ways:
1. Tell me about a time…
2. Describe for me an event/project when…
3. Walk me through the last time you…
What can you do to prepare?
• Match your experience to the job description
• Trawl through your diary & working papers for forgotten examples
• What did you do? What did you achieve?
36
RESPONDING TO BEHAVIOURAL-BASED QUESTIONS
STAR Formula:Situation
Give an example of a situation. This is the introduction of the past story.
TaskDescribe the task. What you needed to achieve.
ActionWhat you did. These are the behaviours demonstrated that align with the behavioural traits. This is the body of the past story.

37
