Document Summary

Skills needed: the need for computer skills should be part of the recruiting message. Information and communication technologies also allowed us to recruit at different locations with limited need for relocation thus, increasing our relevant labor market and potential applicant pool: globalization. Value proposition offered: ethics and social responsibility could be part of the employer brand and value proposition to attract talent, pay attention to the recruitment message and signals to convey your ethical standards and expectations. Truth-in-hiring: make sure that your recruiters are not delivering false information or promises, the number of lawsuits over lack-of-truth is increasing. Choose your wording carefully in the recruiting messages in order to avoid unintentional or intentional discrimination. Always mention that you are an eeo employer. Diversify your sources in order to achieve a diverse pool of candidates: recruiters words and actions. Recruiters should be trained on discrimination issues. They need to avoid asking discriminative questions and making offensive remarks.
