How to hire Top Performing Executives for your organization.


Employees are not your asset, they are the most valuable asset. Your most valuable asset must perform to ensure that you as an organization are growing. Whether you are Star-up, Growing or Large organization, one of the top most people challenge that today every organization faces is how to attract top performing executives and how do you hire the right talent for the right job to perform right things.

Here are some of the ways you can attract and hire top performing executives for your organization.

  • Have a very strong Business Vision to attract the top talent at an Executive level




It is very important to have a very strong short term and long term vision of the organization, this helps and gives a lot of confidence to top executives that management team is focused and they know what needs to be achieved in short-term as well as in long-term. Find out your candidates who are growth oriented and driven by vision.

  • First, decide what they would do (Have a clear job requirement) rather first hiring and then deciding what work need to be given to new hires.



Most of the growing organization does this mistake of first hiring people and then deciding what work should be given to new hires. In this approach you end up giving the work which is not done by anyone in the organization, it does not give clarity to the new hire about their roles and responsibility and after some months the resource gets frustrated and leaves the job. It is very important to have a very clear job responsibility and expectation matrix before you start the recruitment process in order to hire the best talent.
  • Know their short and long-term personal and professional goals


Alignment of individual’s career, personal aspirations should be done with the organization’s vision and mission. If there is an alignment between the two things the association will be long and fruitful. But if the alignment is missing, it will not be a fruitful association and ultimately it will be a wrong hire and all wrong hires are very costly for the organization.
  • Hire the right and smartest talent when you are recruiting



Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior. You should hire a person who has done this, who has been there, has managed similar or higher set of challenges and complexity.

For Example, If you are looking for someone who has good people management skills and can work with people, you need to hire an individual who has good people management skill and has a talent of working with people. Hire for strengths, hire for the skills which are the most important. Build on the strength of your new employee in the first place than looking to train the missing talent.

  • Work with right partners to create candidate pool and to identify the best talent



It is not possible to do everything alone, you need right partners at every stage of your business to help you achieve big things. Invest time in developing a relationship with recruiters, an Executive search firm.

It is very important that you select the right people for the right job in the organization, Executive search firms are talent acquisition specialist who invests their entire careers focused on helping their clients identify, attract, and hire the most qualified individuals for their unique organizational needs.

Before you decide to take service from Executive search firm you must know what is their search process, who will be handling your search, does the search firm have industry knowledge and required know-how of the talent market and talent pool and can they be a credible ambassador of your organization.
  • Do a background verification to validate you are hiring the best



Whether it is negative attitude, lack of follow through or other concern, the impact of a bad hire is significant. Not only it can create productivity, moral and Cultural issues, it can also affect the bottom line.

It is very important to validate and you need to pursue every avenue to assure that the people that you hire can do the job, contribute to the growth and development and have no past infringement which might have an impact on your current business and workforce.

What are the most frequently asked Behavioral Interview Questions? Behavioral interview questions are a big part of most job interviews. Employers and hiring managers use these types of questions in order to get an idea if you have the skills and competencies needed for the job. The rationale is that if they know how you performed in the past it will help give a sense of how you might do in the future. For you as the candidate, you’ll need to prepare answers (basically “interview stories”) that highlight the different competencies and skill sets the employer is looking for. The problem is most candidates might have a general idea of how to answer these questions, but the answers usually come out way too long and unfocused, and won’t put the candidate in the best light. That’s why you’ll need to make a concerted effort to create these stories and adapt them to the relevant competencies. Below is a list of some common behavioral...
Video Job Interviews: Hiring Helper or Hindrance? Have you ever participated in a video job interview? More companies than ever before are using this technology to recruit candidates. HR staff and outside recruiters often screen candidates on video before sending the most promising ones on to the hiring manager for face-to-face interviews. Sometimes these initial screenings are even set up as one-way interviews, where candidates submit a video of themselves responding to a given set of interview questions. These videos can give multiple stakeholders a first peek at candidates. Decision makers can then view, rate and discuss these candidates later (often on their own time without the need for any scheduled meetings). And for companies that hire all over the country (and globe), video interviews in later stages of the recruitment process cut travel expenses and make the best-fitting candidates accessible regardless of geography. Should you consider using video job inter...
5 Things You Have to Remember to Do Before Sending Your Resume. If you could choose between a beautifully tailored outfit designed to fulfil all of your fashion dreams or a ready-to-wear baggy tee from some random retailer, which would you pick? That’s a rhetorical question. You’d obviously want that tailored outfit. Did I mention it comes with bespoke pockets? Well, it does. In the age of personalization, we want everything to be made to fit us. So, why would we expect a hiring manager to want anything different when they get a   stack of resumes   in response to a job offer? Whenever a hiring manager posts a job offer, they receive 250+ other resumes on average in response. From that pile, they need to find the one diamond that shines brighter than all the others. How can you expect your resume to shine bright like a diamond? If you send in a generic resume that you didn’t tailor to the job offer? You can’t. Plain and simple. I know, you p...
