Overview of the recruitment process Breaugh (2017), highlights a model for the recruitment process that entails establishing the recruitment objectives, modifying future recruitment decisions/actions based on past results, conducting the recruitment activities, measuring recruitment results and evaluating recruitment efforts. The recruitment objectives should include the number of positions to be filled, the date by which the position should be filled, the cot per hire, the number of applications desired, the preferred type of applicant, job performance goals for new hires and the expected new-hire retention rate. Some key questions are posed as part of the recruitment process to ensure clarity in the candidate that will be selected. These questions include the type of individuals that should be targeted, the recruitment message should be communicated, how to reach the targeted individuals, when the recruitment campaign should begin and what should be the nature of a site visit. lOMoAR cPSD|3013804 3 For the vacancy in question, the job will be advertised on Red Lobster’s Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter social media platforms, on its website and on the notice boards within the restaurants. Also, advertisements will be placed in the local printed media. This will ensure that the vacancy gets maximum exposure. Strategies for reaching passive job applicants The use of social media platform also one avenue for reaching the more passive job applicants. Since the passive applicants are persons who are not actively seeing employment (Breaugh, 2017), any means of attracting them to the vacancy will serve its purpose. Emphasizing opportunities for growth and development and interests and skills will create an ideal lure for the passive applicant. Strategies for reaching a culturally diverse applicant pool Again, social media can very effectively reach the culturally diverse pool. In addition, printed copies of the advertisements could be put in public places or sent to some embassies. Many online facilities, such as Indeed.com and LinkedIn, are available for recaching the international community. Capitalizing on these would help Red Lobster to reach the masses, including a culturally diverse pool. The text for a print-based job posting Vacancy – Restaurant Manager.
