It seems like no one is happy with hiring practices these days. Between the “labor shortage” and the apparent lack of quality candidates who actually apply, there seems to be quite a few confused and frustrated hiring managers trying to understand how to keep up with the hiring trends. With businesses now battling hybrid work, social media, and the culture demanding instant gratification, the last problem anyone wants to deal with is staffing and then training their team.
Jayce Grayye, a no-nonsense, recruiting-consulting leader, is revolutionizing the way that companies hire, and is earning his place at the top of his field with relationships and results. His company, Jayce Grayye Consulting and Recruiting, which focuses on marketing, sales, and operations roles, has helped hundreds of businesses acquire the best talent in the industry, and then keep the talent once they come around. He has proven strategies and helpful insight to what a business needs, and he’s built the trust that keeps clients coming back. Beyond providing exceptional candidates, Jayce Grayye and his team go beyond the industry competitors by offering a guarantee on the candidates that they provide. “We guarantee they are a good fit for your business by offering you a 90-day probation period, or we replace them for free.” Their guarantee and the quality of service provided establishes a trust and a legitimacy to Jayce’s practices, which is exactly how he wants to run his company.
The Hiring:
Though the pandemic has lessened its grip on the world, working and hiring practices may never return to what they were. Modern businesses seem frustrated with the lack of talent in the job market and expect candidates to hit the ground running with no training or introduction to the business’ methods. Jayce mentions that instead of looking for someone who checks every single box you are looking for, it’s helpful to focus on a few priority traits. The candidate with everything you are looking for and the attitude you want may not exist, or if they do, the process will take considerably longer. One of the ways to keep up with the changing recruitment patterns is to adjust expectations for candidates, and then train them once they get there.
Jayce Grayye Consulting and Recruiting can help you find young talent and mold them into exactly what you need. If you can refine your qualifications to aptitude and attitude and be “short and concise” in what you are looking for in a candidate, then Jayce and his team can “knock it out of the park.” Jayce Grayye and his team will spend up to 3 hours per candidate to carefully select the ones who could best meet your qualifications, and using their data driven search process, will offer more applicants than their competitors for you to choose from, ultimately providing a better, larger candidate pool. You then have the chance to sort through the candidates and see who really makes an impression.
However, it’s not always about finding someone who meets a long list of “has dones” and “has experiences”. Instead, depending on the open position, you can focus on their energy. During your interview process, Jayce recommends that hiring managers “ask them situational critical questions and pay close attention to what they say.” Jayce reminds his clients that “You’re looking for confidence, knowledge, and understanding of what they bring to the table.” Especially in the current hiring game, it’s more important to focus on what they may be capable of, instead of what they have done in the past. If they have the personality you require, you can teach them other skills.
The Maintenance:
Once you have hired candidates with exceptional potential, Jayce Grayye Consulting and Recruiting can make sure they want to stay around. According to Jayce, 90% of businesses do not have an onboarding process, which he finds highly problematic in employee retention terms. Regardless of the new hire’s experience level, it’s important to create a thorough, consistent onboarding process so that everyone can get on the same page. Jayce may provide tips for businesses to work with the new hires to establish a routine consistent with the company’s workings and values, while giving them the tools to succeed within the business.
Finally, it’s important to promote a company culture that people want to be a part of. Without a group of like-minded, goal oriented people working cohesively, you may spend time training your hires for them to leave and join a more fitting atmosphere elsewhere, all of which will cost the business money, time, and sanity. Part of what Jayce says makes his own company so effective is that his team believes in their purpose and work exceptionally well together. Businesses need to be mindful of the culture they are creating and portraying as they hire. If people love their environment, they will be less tempted to leave by other offers, which will save everyone the heartache of continuously hiring and training candidates who don’t quite fit the vibe.
With the hiring process changing constantly, it’s important that you and your company stay on top of the methods trending, and the methods that work. Jayce Grayye focuses on finding the perfect candidates to apply for your company, while giving you the stats to back up the match. They also assist companies in determining exactly what they need to maintain the talent they acquire within a fitting and cohesive workplace. Jayce Grayye Consulting and Recruitment are on top of the hiring trends and at the top of their game. With their data driven approach and the trust they have established along the way, Jayce Grayye can get you the professionals you need: they guarantee it.
