Anatomy of a Classic Corporate Hiring Procedure
And Why its Guaranteed to Fail, Part III of III
By: Frank Risalvato

In Part I of this series I outlined a 17-step process that a "Fortune" corporate client asked us to review and report on. In Part II I identified a number of areas that we suspected were causing the candidate pipeline to toss out good candidates prematurely, while permitting only unsuitable candidates to arrive at the final stages. The problem was aggravated by a Human Resource department that often turned candidates off with their lackadaisical approach.

Rather than a seamless, synchronized hiring process we had uncovered a system that resembled "A Series of Unfortunate Events". Only here the company replaced the fumbling, bungling Count Olaf of the children's horror/mystery novels. Interestingly enough as I write this final chapter on this project more than one high level human resource manager of this company was let go … with other changes already being implemented.
