Recruitment Process
Recruitment process consists of different stages where potential candidates are filtered in a very detailed manner to create a perfect match for our clients’ needs.
sHR. has a different and unique approach to the process than mainstream.
The below picture shows how a common understanding of a recruitment process looks like:
For sHR., the process does not end with the placement. sHR. sees it as continuous cycle:
The “After Placement” step is an important phase in the whole cycle, where both customer’s and candidate’s satisfaction is measured, the feedback analyzed and new improvement actions are defined.
Analysis of Customer Demand
sHR. starts recruitment process by understanding the clients’ needs. The client shares the requirements for the role and a clarification phase continues regarding qualifications, responsibilities that the role requires. Also specific priority topics are cleared during that phase like foreign language knowledge, technical/technology specific know-how, business approach, etc.
This process is the part where sHR. makes a big difference with its strong technical background which enables parties to communicate with each other easily, effectively and openly.
Searching for Potential Candidates
sHR. takes a different path for gathering potential candidates and not only uses its own job portal (www.shr-consulting.com) and others in the internet, but also uses effectively the existing candidate database that has been established in the past 10 years and social networks like Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter. In addition to all, sHR. uses its network in cooperation like universities, other corporate companies and recruitment offices to widen the candidate pool to find the best match.
Looking for candidates is often a costly process with a narrow scope for clients when handled by clients own resources. Partnership with sHR. reduces costs for clients by widening the pool and doing the job with less fixed costs.
Pre-assesment of Profiles
Initially found candidates are called to give brief information about the open position and understand if the candidate is looking for new opportunities. Also expectations of candidates are discussed briefly at this stage just to see if the conditions of the position fit to candidate’s desires.
At this stage, the focus is on the candidate and client requirements about the job. Therefore, client information and the financial details are not considered as a priority.
Interviews with Candidates
sHR. uses different techniques and methods for interviewing candidates that passed pre-assesment step of the process. Although face-to-face approach is the most common and preferable one, video- (via Skype) and teleconference interviews can be also used for the candidates that are abroad or not available at the desired moment due to various limitations (working hours and location).
Depending on the candidates’ past experiences, interviews can be done either on competency based to evaluate a candidate’s competence, particularly when it is hard to select on the basis of technical merit (e.g. new graduates) or conventionally focusing on questions relating to an applicant’s past or previous industry experience (e.g. senior candidates). In both cases, some technical tests and language proficiency checks (English and German) can be applied where it’s necessary.
All those packed in one interview, sHR. reduces the effort of clients spent evaluating candidates and keeps only higly matching candidates for final interview.
Reporting of Candidates
sHR. provides its clients with detailed interview reports showing the whole skill set of candidates. Remarks linking the competencies of candidates with requirements of clients makes analyzing profiles easier and enables clients to focus on the most important areas in the final interviews.
Recruitment of Agreed Candidates
After final interview of clients with candidates, clients make their propasal and upon approval by the candidate recruitment process comes to an end. sHR. keep its support for both parities at this stage to make transition process smoother.
Through all this process, sHR. doesn’t charge anything for its clients until the process is finalized and when the position is filled.

If both parties agree to continue further with the sessions, monthly meetings are scheduled with desired venues. sHR. pays huge attention for clients’ privacy and never shares any information regarding the sessions.
