1.HIRE CAREFULLY
Years ago I heard the phrase, hire slowly, fire quickly. And I have to say, it stuck with me. It
stuck with me for a few reasons, one, it's a catchy little phrase. But number two, it's also
something that I found in my years of experience working in HR to really be descriptive of what
you need to do in employment. So here's what it means. It means take the time upfront to find
the right person. It doesn't mean unnecessarily hiring slowly but we shouldn't rush the process.
To often we try and rush to get someone to fill an open spot and we don't take the time to
make sure we're getting someone with the right knowledge, skills, abilities competencies,
cultural fit, whatever it is. Do we even know as an organization what job we're hiring for?
Can you speak the language of your business? How do you make money? Who are your
customers? Who are your competitors? Could you tell me your revenue goals? Your efficiency
goals. What does each function do and how are these systems interdependent? I personally feel
it's very helpful to partner with finance. Have a contact in finance so when you are working a
new program or whatever it is, you can see from another perspective. You can have a good
dialogue with a coworker, and learn the processes of the organization outside of your own
department.
as a manager, HR professional, whoever you are in business, you need to determine what is the
gap between your current state and your desired state. And then you hire for that. So maybe
it's a personal gap in terms of. For instance, if you're someone who's very visionary and
creative, but details aren't your thing. Then don't hire someone just like you. Hire for the thing
you don't do well. Again, if it's a team. Is there a shortage that you have in terms of a
competency on your team? Hire to fill that competency void.
the three basic paths that most organizations fall into are operational excellence which you see
there on your slide. Product leadership and then customer intimacy.
First of all, let's take a look at operational excellence. And this is really thinking in my
organization that's a low-cost provider. They're constantly looking at their processes and trying
to eliminate waste of redundancies. Any sort of part of the process that is not value-added to the
customer. And so because of this, they're able to provide a quality product that is also cost-
effective for the consumer. Companies that I think that might fall into this sort of strategy, I'll list
them here. So we'll say FedEx UPS, kind of from a shipping standpoint. And then, maybe
General Electric, I would say maybe them as well. Kind of thinking about how do we
manufacture products that are high quality. There's not a lot of waste in the process and they're a
good value to the customer.
Next, let's move on to product leadership. Product leadership is an organization that is thinking
about innovation in their products and services that create a competitive advantage. So really
cutting-edge products and services, new ideas, getting them fast to market. And I would say that
Apple would be a tremendous example of a company that is all about innovation and product
leadership. Also maybe Nike, I'm thinking of their apparel, latest and greatest in terms of athletic
wear.
And our last strategy is customer intimacy. Customer intimacy is really an organization that
offers unique solutions for their services, their products. Customizing those to the customer and
then really providing an exceptional customer experience. So I'm going to say Nordstrom's is
well noted for their customer service, as is for instance, The Four Seasons Hotel. Really paying a
premium for that quality, but nonetheless exceptional quality provided by their employees.
So at this point we need to note that we've looked at our three different kinds of strategies. What
are those components within the strategy? But critical at this point is to think about what then
do we need to do to deliver workforce behaviors to execute these strategies? What do we
need to do to achieve these three?
We can define quite a few different workforce behaviors, but just for the sake of time, let's take
a look at just one maybe for each.
So under operational excellence I would say we'd want workers to be efficient, right? We
need to be able to follow standardized procedures.
How about under product leadership? I'm going to say innovation. Also, I'm going to just list
creativity. I think those two kind of go in the same bucket to some extent.
And then lastly, customer intimacy. How about problem solvers? We need employees who
are really going to be able to help customers resolve whatever issues they have.
So because this class is selection and recruitment, we need to perhaps think about how do we
recruit people for these kinds of strategies? And so let's use the innovations strategy and think
about how do we recruit creative people?
First we have to know what does creative mean for organization. A competency is the
combination of knowledge, skills, abilities that are needed. So what is it actually look like
creativity? Can we measure it? Should we measure it? Is it divergence from the way things are
normally done? Novelty, new ways of looking at things. So first we must understand and try
to define what creative behaviors are. It makes it really difficult if not impossible, to hire the
right people without understanding this.
The next area is job design. We need to make sure we design jobs within the organization
that are motivating and empowering, not stifling or micro-managing. These kinds of jobs, do
they provide opportunities for creative people to work in teams? Work across boundaries?
We need to be creative within our own search tactics. For instance, where are we looking for
people? But even more so, we must be creative in the way that we recruit. Recruiting is
marketing and it should look fresh, exciting, colorful, diverse and inspiring.
Our selection process needs to be scientifically validated. So we're actually hiring for the things
that we need. So no more asking how many golf balls fit into a 747. While we hope this gets to
an individual's creativity, it just doesn't hold water. It's not valid, it's not related to job
performance. Instead, ask the candidate to produce a sample of what he or she would actually be
working on?
The best people to recruit are often not in the HR department. I know that sounds funny,
especially coming from an HR professional. But your employees should be the ones networking
and finding great candidates like them in their own profession. If your current employees are
happy and productive, they will be your best advertisers.
And of course, the culture of your organization creates a positive environment in which a
creative person would want to work. What do you celebrate?
Turnover is the rate at which employees leave the workforce and they're replaced, that would
be our definition. So, what is our current turnover? We need to know that. Was our projected
turnover based on historical data? This should be taken into account to make sure that you're
going to have enough workers. For instance, I worked in an industry and there was high
turnover. We knew that if we needed 10 employees, that we'd need to hire 14. So we had to
over hire to compensate for the turnover.
Employee development means, what training and development opportunities are employees
currently involved in? Who's trained and who's available? Do we have some people who are
ready to move up? For instance, if you have a manager leave your organization. Is there
someone trained and ready to take that spot? This will affect if you need to hire internally or
externally.
Low engagement drives turnover. I guess the converse should be true, more engaged
employees typically want to stay. If we have dissatisfied employees though, we will likely need
to engage in more hiring activities. You should regularly survey your employees to determine
their levels of engagement and where you have issues. So we need to listen to this internal
feedback and with this data, we can maybe even predict turnover.
Are your employees high performers? Are they productive? Then hopefully, for example, you
shouldn't need to hire two people to do the job of one person.
And next, let's take a look at operations, which is a critical area to pay attention to and will also
dictate whether or not we need to hire.
STEP 4:
In step 4, this is what I call really your gap closing strategies. What are you going to actually
implement? And so these are the things we need to think about. Do we need to recruit more
employees?
With those employees, what competencies and skill sets do they need?
Maybe we need to change the way that we select people. How we retain employees, we have a
turn over problem perhaps, and so how are we retaining employees? Should we perhaps try to
grow more employees internally organically within the organization through professional
development and succession planning. So this is really the implementation stage of what do we
actually need to do to meet the requirements of our strategic plan through workforce planning.
STEP 5:
Step 5 is evaluation. And I know it sounds like it's the last step, but it's actually something you
should be doing throughout all of your programs and practices constant evaluation. And so, in
systems three we looked at the need to get information from our external and internal
environment, and so here's some things you could think about. Let's just say, we'll just use a
couple of examples. Let's just say that you have a large percentage of employees who don't
have the right competencies, that's what you've determined from your workforce analysis.
So then you have to think about, are you recruiting the right employees, maybe, are you
using the right selection tools, are you setting clear performance expectations? Wait on pro
performers, those kinds of things. Maybe you find out that you have a high number of
people leaving the organization, a lot of turnover.
Do people that you're recruiting actually understand the job that they're supposed to be doing?
Are you getting the right people? Again, setting clear performance expectations? Giving
feedback? Are people being developed for future promotions, or do they feel that they have to
leave the organization to go find a new opportunity?
So these are the steps, the things to think about, in the evaluation stage.
Nota previamente guardada: So a competitor's trying to nab some of our best people, and we may
need to look then of course at how we are compensating them and rewarding them, and all those
different things
Another thing is that we could look at replacing a job with technology. Okay, well maybe not
the technology in this picture. Okay, so this picture probably looks a little more familiar to you.
You can see this is the self checkout at the grocery store and perhaps in your part of the world,
you have these as well. We certainly have seen many more here in the United States. Clearly
there are machines now taking the place of people. So sometimes technology can take the
place of workers. But if we think about it in another perspective, it is a company that employs
workers that design the machines. Manufactured them, shipped them, all of these things. So
sometimes technology can also create jobs as well.
When reassigning work, we generally give it to another employee. This happened a lot during
the last economic downturn. Out of times we keep our best employees and then, the ones who
are laid off we give that work to those best employees who stay. And a lot of times that can
cause, again, the overtime issue we talked about, burnout and issues with stress and all these
things. But sometimes also to, the request comes with more pay. So it's not necessarily always
less expensive. And maybe rightfully so that there's a pay request, because if the job is now
twice what the person was hired to do, that obviously would mean that someone is expecting a
little bit more money. On the bright side, some employees may welcome the chance to learn
new knowledge, skills and abilities.
In an attempt to reduce turnover and retain employees, perhaps you can actually work to
improve the environment and reduce turnover, improve wages, working conditions, the culture
of the organization, measure engagement. All of these things really would be helpful and they
do seem like a good solution but it does take some time. No matter what I do recommend it
anyway as a best practice.
Overtime can be a very helpful way to temporarily increase production. You do need to comply
with overtime laws however, which in the United States is time and a half past 40 hours. So
your wage and a half times the number of hours you've worked for that week. And that's for
most employers in the United States. A long term use of overtime though, can be hard on
employees. Ultimately causing problems with burnout, safety, quality.
Okay, another option is to outsource the function altogether. You would have to perform some
sort of return on investment, ROI analysis, to see if it makes sense for your organization. Certain
jobs and tasks that are not valued added are more easily outsourced. But critical functions that
are part of the company's valued chain or the critical function that give the product or service
value to the costumer should be really be outsourced.
All right we look at a lot of different ways to perhaps avoid hiring a regular full time ongoing
employee and some other options that provide some flexibility. But here's another one, and
that is maybe not hiring an employee at all but bringing in an independent contractor outside
of the organization. Perhaps this is for a temporary assignment, or that independent contractor
has a particular set of skills, like a consultant.
Just a quick word of caution here, though. And that is that we want to make sure that we're
compliant with IRS laws related to whether the person should be correctly categorized as an
employee or an independent contractor.
A current issue that's happening in the this realm of employee versus independent contractor is
really this new kind of employee that we see, that's kind of on demand employee. That we
need the person at the moment when we need them. And so it's, and it's really different more
by consumers. And this is the case of Uber. If you're not familiar with Uber, it's a mobile app
that connects drivers with people needing transportation via the GPS of the smart phone. Again
it's an on demand type of employment arrangement. So you work as an Uber driver when you
want on your own terms. You just need a smart phone and a car. But the issue is that Uber
drivers have filed, not all of them, but many have filed a class action lawsuit. Claiming that they
were misclassified as independent contractors and are entitled to be reimbursed for their
expenses that Uber should have to pay for, like for gas and vehicle maintenance. And that they
really should have been classified as employees.
The case begins trial in June of 2016 and many people will be anxiously awaiting the decision as
this type again of alternative employment arrangement redefines the way we look at
employment in general. And also questions the application of the IRS employee versus general,
or sorry, employee versus independent contractor law.
So what law are this class action participants referencing and what do you need to know if you
are a US employer?
In United States, the Internal Revenue Service regulates who is considered an independent
contractor or an employee. It's really very critical to make sure that you're classifying these
individuals correctly. So if you do have an employee, that means that you need to withhold
income taxes, withhold and pay Social Security and Medicare tax. Unemployment tax for wages
paid and also things like workers compensation. There's three aspects that the IRS looks at to
determine if that person is a independent contractor or an employee. So the more behavioral
control, financial control and the kind of relationship that is really more dictated by the
employer means that the person is more likely going to be an employee. So first of all
behaviorally, does the company control or have the right to control what the worker does and
how they do it? Financially are the business aspect of the worker's job controlled by the
employer, the payer? These things would be like how they're paid, whether expenses are
reimbursed, and who provides tools and supplies. This, to me, kind of really falls into some of
the issues that the Uber case has. Also the type of relationship. Are there written contracts or
employee type benefits like a pension plan, insurance, vacation pay. The more you offer this
kinds of things, the more like the person would be considered employee. Lastly will the
relationship continue and is the work performed a key aspect of the business?
so let's start with temporary labor. Temporary labor services can be really convenient. Typically
you have a contract with an agency that sets how much you will pay the agency and then the
agency pays the employees wages, taxes and insurance. The advantage is clear you don't have
to have the administrative task of payroll and liability that comes along with employing
workers. You are also able to get employees pretty quickly and if things change you can let
them go or really it's the agency that lets them go. You also can try to work up priority to
making a long term commitment. So there is a lot of advantages but there are some
disadvantages and that is you typically end up paying a little bit more for this convenience. You
pay the agency and the workers, so you have a little bit of an extra premium in there. And you
also have to train a worker that may eventually leave. So depending on the position and if a lot
of time and training goes into it, it may not really make sense to make it a temporary job. A
temp worker also may not have the same commitment as a long-term employee. Another thing
is that we could look at replacing a job with technology. Okay, well maybe not the technology in
this picture. Okay, so this picture probably looks a little more familiar to you. You can see this is
the self checkout at the grocery store and perhaps in your part of the world, you have these as
well. We certainly have seen many more here in the United States. Clearly there are machines

eficiencia: Rather than solely looking at efficiency, we look at things like innovation,
creativity, personality differences, and work environment. All of these things are now
considered.

motivation has this 5: 1. skill variety, 2. task identify. 3. task significance. 3. autonomy,
4. feedback

mental capacity: we want to minime that, minize time people do the task by using
technology. checklist.
The first one is job enlargement and that typically means broadening the scope of the job.
So you're adding more tasks to it. You're extending the job.This helps for workers who may be
currently under-worked, they're bored, they need more things to do, and they may welcome
this kind of activity. But remember that sometimes when we enlarge jobs, people may also
want more money to go along with it.
And job enrichment means empowering workers by adding more decision-making authority to
the job. I think about the example of a committee that I used to work with at a former
workplace. And in that committee I would take a lot of the employee concerns and requests,
and then I would report back to my boss and share those with her, and then she would
determine which to act on and which not to act on. And job enrichment where she decided, hey
instead of me doing this, why don't when you get these requests, why don't you decide what
needs to be done. And so that's job enrichment. Empowering workers by, again, adding more
decision-making authority to jobs.
Last is job rotation and that means enlarging jobs by moving employees across several jobs.

en este video hablan de que ahora todo es tecnologia y que por eso siempre debes tener tu
pagina web de la empresa bien cuidada, con información adecuada porque casi siempre, los
candidatos ven la pagina, ven los videos, ven como funciona la empresa antes de ir a la
tentrevista y dependiendo de eso también pueden seguir dispuestos a aplicar o ya no.
Asimismo, se debe utilizar la tecnología a favor, hacer reuniones en zoom, tener recordatorios,
mandarle al candidato, ver los gustos, ayudarle a llenar la información automáticamente a la
hora de que aplique con sus datos en la pagina. asi se hace que ahorre tiempo en estar
completando todos sus adatos desde cero. esto se logra con ia, su ubicación, etc.
So how is it then that we reach out to passive candidates? Well of course, the Internet is one
way that recruiters find to be very helpful. And so, you could do that through multiple sources.
But LinkedIn might be the most popular. But also, just finding that person's email and send an
email, which can be a little bit difficult because if the person's employed, they may see it as
an intrusion into their work time. And maybe you don't want to get the person in trouble
because there may be a perception if someone saw that email, and knew about these
communications, that their loyalty to their own organization might be questioned.
So to avoid that, it's better to really do it on that individual's time, sending them something
through LinkedIn, which is an acceptable way to communicate with passive candidates, at
least most passive candidates.
So we want to make sure that we are positioning our company as an employer of choice where
people want to work. So the otherwise sort of reluctant passive individual may become more
interested and engaged, if they know that we are a good company to work for.
That means that we need to have a positive culture and perhaps diversity for some
candidates who are of a diverse background. And they want to see that reflected within the
workplace, they don't want to be the only person of their ethnicity or their background. So
making sure that the culture of our organization is also reflective of the people that we're trying
to recruit is important.
Another area, another great strategy for finding passive talent is networking.
Going to industry events and talking with people who are in the know and finding that talent
within the industry is really important. According to LinkedIn's global recruiting trends survey,
61% of organizations have some sort of strategy to recruit passive candidates.
It's important then to make sure that hiring managers and recruiters understand what are the
critical characteristics of your culture. So if your culture, for instance, is very strong in
innovation, we need to find ways then to assess candidates' ability to bring innovative ideas and
fit in with an innovative culture.
personality inventory, culture test (ejemplo de test a continucacion),
So a company that would be more in the world of homogeneity and thinking about cultural fit
would be Zappos. They really espouse that they look for a certain kind of candidate to fit within
their culture. And if you have a chance to check them out, it's zappos.com. There's a lot of really
interesting videos about their culture.
The other sort of end of the spectrum I think about is Google. And again, I'm using Google
because you know that I really like Google, but they really espouse more an attitude of diversity,
trying to find people who don't generally or necessarily fit in one type of mold.
ZAPPOS: In fact, according to their website, they have a two-part process, a skills interview
and a culture interview, and candidates have to be able to pass both. The culture interview is
really based on their core values, and if an applicant doesn't pass that, they don't move forward
in the process. So while Zappos does honor diversity, they really have almost a stronger focus, it
seems, on first making sure there's a cultural fit, even outweighing a technical fit.
Now Google, on the other hand, according to their website and their recruitment materials,
really focuses on a number of different categories, really four. And so they look at leadership,
role-related knowledge, how the person thinks in terms of cognitive ability, and then what
they call Googliness. So while they do think of cultural fit within the hiring process, they seem
to espouse more the attitude of we want people with a diverse background and a wider variety
of competencies that they're coming to the workplace with. So lately, in the world of
recruitment, cultural fit has become a bit of a hot topic because some people are worried that if
we only look for cultural fit, we will sacrifice diversity. But as these two organizations show, it's
just how you prioritize it, so it's not one or the other. You can have both of these being part of
the process. But we need to evaluate what is our strategic mission and what are our goals as an
organization, and that will help dictate what is the criteria we're looking for in the hiring
process.
2.3.3 Diversidad
divertisty es necesaria, es chalengin porque muchas veces nos dejamos llevar por esteoritpos (ej.
ves un nombre raro en un cv y capaz no le haces caso), no es un trend, de hecho cada vez mas
hay mas diversidad. no solo esta en reclutamiento, sino que también tiene que ver con los
clientes.

se puede hacer un pile de yes, no, maybe… o ahora hay apps que te ayudan a organizar que
candidatos has entrevistado, por cuales fuentes, que score les das, etc. esto es mas eficiente
porque es mas rápido, menos tiempo, menos plata. Many of these systems also keep resumes in
the system. So if there's a future position that arises, the system will flag it as, hey, you might
have a candidate who has the capabilities you're looking for. It's also more efficient in terms of
time and money. It's automated, it reduces paperwork, lower admin and advertising costs.
lo malo es que…
the disadvantages include the fact that applicant tracking only looks for resumes that really
meet the requirements of the position. So sometimes recent college graduates can be
overlooked, borderline candidates, those who are switching careers, all of these different kinds of
things may be screened out from your system. Automated systems are often also unreliable that
they can reject resumes for unnecessary reasons. Maybe if you're scanning it for instance, it's
unable to read the resume properly. That's why oftentimes we look for resumes to be sent to us
via email and upload and things like that to our systems. And lastly applicant tracking limits the
information applicants can provide
For instance, a cognitive ability test assesses the ability to think. Reasoning, perception, memory,
verbal, mathematical ability, and problem solving. So test for cognitive ability pose questions
designed to estimate your potential to estimate your potential to use mental processes to solve
work related problems.
In a previous human resource position, we would have candidates bring in work samples. And so
these positions would be like graphic designers and artists. And it would be really helpful then to
see what was their portfolio, what have they done in the past.
a veces la entrevista va antes que el testeo, depende de cada organización. la entrevista puede ser

esta parte es dificil porque la mayoria de empresas prefieren no decir ningun comentario de ex
trabajadores. pero bueno, a pesar de ser difícil, es la mejor practica dentor de un proc de
selección.
tomar en cuenta…
algunos candidatos son super buenos en entrevistas, son carimaticos, abiertos, etc; pero hay que
ver que tengan las competencias que necesitamos. hay que entrenar a las personas que hacen el
proceso.
si tienes un candidato con irentacion al detalle (que es lo que necesitas) pero bien introvetido (lo
que hace que no quepa culturalmente en la empresa) y si tienes un candidato que no tiene tanta
atención al detalle pero en cambio se hace amigo de todos, es etxrovertio… a quien contratas?
para comprender para que estamos contratando, debemos tomar en cuenta todo esto:
So the first one general cognitive ability that is thinking about how do you think about
things? They're less concerned about grades, transcripts, GPAs, and more on how do you
think, how do you solve problems? What sort of insight would you bring to the
organization? They advise candidates don't get hung up on nailing the right answer. They
want to see how you're going to work through the problem.
Under leadership they say that they're not necessarily concerned if you've had past
leadership experience. They would like to know that you have leadership potential.
Under Googleyness that gets to the culture.They want to get a feel for what makes you
you. It says here on their website they also want to make sure this is a place you would
thrive. So they look for signs around your comfort with ambiguity, your bias to action,
and your ability to be collaborative,
role related knowledge: They want people who have a variety of strengths and passions
not just an isolated skill set.
So you can see here that all of these different components are really what I was talking about in
this. It goes back to the idea again, of balance. Balancing the cultural fit, the knowledge skills
abilities, and competencies. The hiring for the weaknesses. What does this person have that
others don't? Does this person bring something unique to your organization?
3.2.1 Sesgos
types of biases (Sesgos)
heuristic:
The first one is confirmation bias, and that's the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, recall
information in a way that confirms our original beliefs or hypothesis about that person. In other
words, we make up our minds about the candidate's worthiness, integrity all these different
things, their personality and we spend the rest of the interview trying to confirm, less commonly,
deny the original hypothesis.
Let's just say that I'm interviewing a woman for sales position and she comes in for the interview
and shakes my hand. And she has a very weak handshake. And perhaps I believe that people
with a weak handshake are not very assertive, which is a key component of being a sales
person.So now throughout the rest of the interview, when I'm asking questions, I will interpret
the things that she says that they show me that she is not assertive. My mind is trying to confirm
the decision that I made early on in the interview and because of that, I don't give her the job. I
don't seek alternative possibilities. Maybe her hand was sore. Maybe she's truly actually
assertive, but she's learned that you're not supposed to shake someones hand with very much
force. We could come up with a variety of reasons maybe why she had a weak handshake, but
the point is that we may have lost a great candidate because of confirmation bias.
Next is in-group bias. This is when we favor members of the in-group over out group members.
We look for people like us in our in-group instead of people who are different from us in the out
group. This is why it's important to be careful when organizations say they hire for cultural fit.
Because cultural fit might promote group think and homogeneity instead of diversity.
Contrast bias can work in a few different ways. One, you could have a candidate that you
interview first who you perceived as excellent, and you rate everyone else more harshly because
of that first great interview. Or if one candidate seems weak in some area others may appear to
be more qualified than they really are.
Another type of contrast bias is called recency effect. And that's why you may only remember
best the interview that happened last and you scored higher because it's fresh on your mind.
The halo effect is exactly what it sounds like. It's as if the person being interviewed is wearing a
golden halo. And that's because they've created a favorable first impression on the interviewer.
And from that point forward anything the candidate does or says, the interviewer interprets
positively. Now this can be because of in-group bias. As we talked about before, it could be the
applicant's manner, his or her accent, or perhaps the person came from our same city, they might
have gone to the same college, maybe they're just generally attractive.
And the last one on our list here is prejudice. And really looking at this word, it's prejudgment.
You're judging someone because perhaps you have an unfair feeling or dislike for a person or
group because of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin or whatever the reason may be,
but it's unfounded and it's not logical.
3.2.2 Comprobación de antecedentes
sued= demandado
esta es una lista de cosas que Podemos buscar sobre una persona (background):
se le puede dar una oportunidad a la persona para que explique en que fue su crimen, que tan
serio fue, etc.
3.2.3 Normas del método de selección
este video tiene que ver con leyes de USA.
assessment tolos to assess candidates;
Correlation is where there's a mutual relationship or connection between two things. So, I used
the example of a vision test. If I go to the eye doctor, and she uses all of those lenses to test my
vision, and with one particular lens, my eyesight is much better. There's going to be a
correlation, a relationship, a connection between that lens and my improved eyesight
3.2.4 Hábleme de usted
esta frase se usa siempre, pero por que se debería evitar?
its really open ended – obtienes mucha informacoin quwe en realidad no quieres oir y puede
contaminar tu decisión final.
maybe I make a conscious decision not to hire someone because I don't agree, I have
stereotypes, or biases, or I don't agree with their race, color, religion, sex, national origin,
or whatever it is. So there's certainly that potential. But there's also the potential that we could
get into a situation where someone thinks that we didn't hire them because of their race, color,
religion, sex, national origin, because now you know it. So if the person, for instance, says, you
say tell me about yourself and they say I'm a Muslim. And then you don't hire the person, now
you, now the perception might be it's because of the fact that you have that information.

the focus of this video is the stwp 2: determine a good selection method to use
structured interviews:
OTHER TOOLS:
- integrity tests: decent degree of validty
- personality inventories
- physical ability tests: helpful in some positions. ex. firefighter
- emotional intelligence: ability to understand yourself and see how you react to certain
things
- prior work samples: this works for example if you want a graphic designer and you
want to see wue ha hecho esa persona en el pasado, sus trabajos.
- medical examinations + drug and alcohol screening
- references and background check: references are the best practice and bacjground
(education, criminal background, etc)
Structured interviews are an assessment tool designed to measure job related competencies of
applicants. By systematically inquiring about their behavior in either past experiences or their
proposed behavior in hypothetical situations and situational questions.
ventajas: todos los candidatos son hechos las mismas preguntas y por ende se evalúan de forma
igual.
where are we in terms of the steps to a good hire? we are in the “conduct method” step.
Types of questions;
- situational= what would you do if?
- behavioral= tell me about a time,, ex: tell me about a time you worked on a very
successful proyect
- knowledge= how do you… ex: how would you make a margarita?
warm up questions: why you are interest in this position? what you know about the company?
how did you find the position? where do you see yourself in 5 years?
1. Document the interview: is a good practice porque incluso tienes anotado porque no le
contratas o por que si, para recordar igual, para no confundir con otras entrevistas.
2. ask same questions of all candidates: hace mas facil evaluar a todos los candidatos
3. use multiple raters when possible: no caer en sesgos
4. be aware of biases:
Candidate evaluation:
no discutir sobre candidatos entre interviews porque si a ti te pareció Bueno y a tu compañero
malo, luego puedes calificarlo ya sesgado; es mejor conversar sobre los candidatos una vez que
todos lo han calificado.
offer package:
- offer letter: needs to be in writing, what is the rate of pay, put a start date, drug sreen
- employment agreement: info about employee responsabilities, confidentiality, ownership
of company workproduct
- non compete agrrement: es para evitar que un empleado deje la empresa y leugo se
convierta en un competidor directo de la empresa. ademas sirve para proteger los secretos
de la empresa. el empleado le pagan por firmar eso.
- job description: la persona debe tener una copia de la descripción de puestos
example of metrics:
- cost of recruitments operations (travel expenses that are related to the recruiter, and any
travel expenses you pay for the candidate to come to your facility. Maybe you fly the
candidate to see you, any advertising expenses, supplies, postage)
- acceptance ratio (how many offers and hoy many works accepted)
- yield ratio
- how many resume we received
La orientación forma parte del proceso de incorporación, pero la incorporación es algo más
que orientar a un nuevo empleado en el lugar de trabajo. La incorporación es un proceso de
socialización que integra al nuevo empleado en el equipo de trabajo y le ayuda a sentirse
bienvenido y comprometido.
So socialization of that employee really is that next step after the hiring process.
4 steps of socialization:
1 step: is learning about and accepting your org reality. it matters what your business strategy
is. you need to know who you are in order to share it.
2 step: the new hire know what to do, have a good idea of whats happening, and where to go,
etc.
3 step: where does this position and the new hire fit within the entire organization? Within the
unit and even within the team.
What did they specifically bring to the table? Hopefully over time, the new hire and those
around them will have a clear understanding of their role within the organization and the team
and their fit and what they bring to the team itself.
4 step: Finally, you and the new hire will be able to see signposts to socialization. The new hire
will engage with their coworkers smoothly. They'll know what their job is and add to the
workplace. Hopefully, they'll even begin to innovate and bring more effective ideas into your
work team
Por término medio, ¿cuántos días pasan antes de que un nuevo empleado se
comprometa con una organización o empiece a pensar en un nuevo empleo?
Sí, es alrededor de los tres meses cuando un empleado medio cambiará su mentalidad a
"pienso quedarme aquí un tiempo" o "creo que tengo que empezar a buscar un nuevo
trabajo en cuanto me parezca razonable" E incluso si ese nuevo empleado del segundo
escenario se queda otros dos años... parte de su proceso mental ya ha salido por la puerta.
The first 90 to 100 days of an employee's tenure, often called re-recruiting, Can be the
difference between an employee who stays for a decade and one who's gone before the year is
out. This comes from Michael Watkins and his book The First 90 Days, and it is a great example
of really what you need to do in that first 90 days, those first three months of your new hire's
tenure. You need to re-recruit them. The need to prove themselves to you, but you also need to
prove to them this is a good place for them to work, it was a good choice for both of you.
Ten, WHO?
Who does the new hire need to meet? More importantly, are there people or processes that all
your new hires will really should be getting introduced to regardless of the position? How can
you make your new hire process a process and really template it for any new hires that come
later so you aren't constantly reinventing the wheel? What connections should you be making
for yourself and the new hire to be sure that you will have what the new hire needs before they
begin? What are the key relationships the new hire will need to foster? Think deeply, it may be
just as important for the new hire to get to know the front desk security officer as it is for the
new hire to know the CEO. You know your organization and its culture. A new hire doesn't.
¿Cuánto debe durar un buen programa de incorporación?
Sí, un año es aproximadamente el tiempo que tarda un nuevo empleado en haber pasado por
un ciclo completo de los flujos y reflujos del lugar de trabajo. Puede que necesite ampliar este
plazo si su nuevo empleado ocupa un puesto con un ciclo más largo, pero normalmente un
año es un buen tiempo para planificar la incorporación de un nuevo empleado.
checklist that have to be adjusted for each new hire or different types of new hires:
FIRST CONTACT: es tu primer chance de crear una impression en el empleado. Make it count,
think about how you present yourself in your workplace. This through your organizational
culture, and your own team culture, and craft your message to re-enforce those cultures. Make
notes about the specific things you would like or are requiring the new employee to do, and be
explicit. You can give specific instructions in a separate contact, if you wish, but make sure that
all the information gets to the new hire.
Send an email or a text, or use whatever communication device necessary to get in contact with
them, and just say hi, and welcome. Taking the time to write out an old fashioned thank you note
maybe even signed by your team can also be a great welcome.
Send some organizational logo materials too if you have them. That could be great.
First day:
dale al nuevo su tiempo
try to meet with them
anda por las hojas de rrhh o policies, pero no primero
planea por ellos, ellos no saben que hacer en su primer dia o que comer, planea por
ellos.
Fisrt week:
piensa en algún proyecto que el nuevo pueda ayudar o hacer
formal check to see how things are going, solve questions, etc.
First month:
any project that can be done in one mont would be great for the new hire, van a
sentirse bien de completr el mismo.
First 90 days:
monthly checks-ins (que ha ido bien y que no)
these fiest 90 days are the most important for new hires, es importante darles
proyectos que los hagan sentirse usefull.
First year:
keep schedulling check in.
be available
give feedback
be supportive
celebrate new hire first year
loke at your overall checklist, what you forget, what you need to add
keep the checklist porque la usaras en el siguiente new hire.
EXECUTIVES:
a pesar de ser senior o loo que sea, todo mundo necesita un ONBOARDING. asi sea que tu
como empresa pienses que no necesita una guía o esa persona misma lo piense, si3 se necesita
la guía: (asi sea para decirle como se ocupa la tarjeta del estacionamiento, o decirle con quien
debe comunicarse cuando las cosas estén listas)
VETERANS:
Prepare, educate yourself about the most common pitfalls and success factors experienced by
veterans in civilian organizations and how to set the stage for success. Work with your HR team
to explore the range of accommodations for veterans with disabilities, and demystify these
challenges for yourself and for the vet.
Connect, ask veterans to describe what it was like to be a new employee at your company. And
ask line managers to describe their experiences managing veterans. Personally connect with
military new hires from day one. Translate if need, answer questions, make suggestion and
most importantly, be a helpful colleague that the new hire can reach out to in the coming days,
weeks, months and as we've said before, even up to a year. And finally, manage. Learn to
distinguish a performance issue from more of a transition issue. Provide some training and
coaching and other resources to the veteran as part of the onboarding process to establish
context and support them. The most important thing you can do is something. Really,
sometimes it's just anything. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by everything that could be done.
But sometimes doing something is really much better than doing nothing at all.
GENERATIONS
each indivudal is different. But there are similarities among people who grew up with
professional understandings for work and reward based on world events or cultural norms,
what was happening when they grew up. And your new hire's definition of what they want out
of work and how they want to be rewarded may be significantly different than what you know.
You may think that your younger employee will be a technological native, but he may be just as
lost when learning a new software program as anyone else.
Take generation differences into consideration, but check with the individual.o be true for
yourself.
PROTECTED CLASS:
A protected class in the United States means that you cannot discriminate against someone on
the basis of that protected class status. So, you cannot discriminate in hiring, promotion, etc,
based on a person's sex, or age, or race. This also means that you shouldn't make assumptions
about your new hire on the basis of their protected class status either.
INDIVIDUAL STRENGHTS:
With strengths and ideas of a lifetime of experiences that they bring to the table. Don't lose
that opportunity. Use the onboarding process to encourage your new hire to use what uniquely
bring to the organization. Do they sing on the weekends? Maybe the new hire can choose
entertainment for the summer picnic.
Do they prefer time to think about an answer before they answer that question you asked?
Maybe ask them to summarize the meeting notes and add their own commentary and ideas at
the bottom. Or maybe, instead of just having a new hire listen to you about how great the
organization is, talk instead about how you are excited to have their individual strengths as part
of the team. And then, listen to them.
Make time:
Schedule time to be with the new hire, get to know them. Welcome them to the team,
do check ins, really every day the first week if you can. Then formal check ins, maybe at the first
month, 90 days, 6 months, 1 year. Give your time, be open to questions, and the new hire will
be comfortable coming to you instead of heading off on their own, or Maybe even heading off
to a new job
Good start:
It is true that the person may not work out, but start with the assumption that they are the best
person for the job.
Learn / listen
Give yourself the goal to learn about the new hire as an individual they are bringing something
unique to your team find out what that is. Listen to them ask questions remember that what
you learn is building the managerial bond with your new hire As a manager, you are one of the
key factors for engagement and retention of your employees. Take this time to get to know
who they are, and then write it down.
Educate them about the organizational culture, both open and hidden in the grasses. What are the
unwritten rules? Do you raise your hand when you want to talk or add something? Or do you talk
without raising your hand? Or do not talk at all in your first three meetings. The new hire has no
idea, so give them some context. well and what might not be going so well.
Help the new hire establish a network of resources. Think through the key people, departments,
power brokers, really, that the new hire will need to know. These will be your team members,
other managers, and also maybe key people in the organization.
Give your team members specific tasks to help the new hire. If you have a great public
speaker on your team, have that person test out the new hire and help them where needed. Or
maybe if someone is really good at your database have that team member show the new hire how
to enter and find things efficiently. Think outside of work as well. On one team that I was a
member of, we had one team member who knew everything that was happening in the city. So
when someone from outside the state joined the team, she was the one who could help provide
some social contacts for the new hire. She didn't need to actually do the things with the new hire,
but she could help them find the things that the new hire wanted to do.
Arrange opportunities for the new hire to get to know other team members. You want to help the
new hire create his social network in your organization. Schedule small sets of team members to
go to lunch with the new hire. Get it on everyone's calendars before the new hire starts so your
team is prepared. Don't do this one on one. That can be awkward. Have small groups of two or
three go to lunch or coffee together with the new hire. Ask the team to think about other folks in
the organization the new hire should get to know too, and have the team member make the
introduction. Maybe invite them to those little groups of one or two or three to go to lunch with.
Tell the team, and the new hire, this is the best time to build that social network. So it can be
tapped later in the new hire's career.
Be open if the current team has concerns about how much attention the new hire is getting, too.
You want this to work long term. So be open to whatever the folks have to say. Try to bridge
misunderstandings or concerns early on, so that everybody is on board with this new person.
So as one person leaves and the new hire comes in you need to go through the workspace and
clean it up.This means having all the necessary tools and supplies ready to go. It also means
actually cleaning the area. Take a moment to spray down the desk or table, clean out the file
cabinet. Actually clean things up. Get new office supplies from the scavengers that may have
swooped in once the last person left and taken all the good stuff.
Even if the person is unlikely to say use those little sticky notes that you see there, have some
there anyway. It looks nice and makes the new hire feel like you considered what they might like
or need.
Siempre es agradable comprar al nuevo empleado algunos materiales con el logotipo de la
empresa, pero incluso una tarjeta firmada por todo el equipo puede ser de gran ayuda para
dar la bienvenida al nuevo empleado al equipo.
