Relocation issues

Are candidates not ready to relocate? Are you missing out on great candidates due to relocation?

The key here is to have the skills and resources to attract qualified candidates, and to help them understand perks of relocation. As a hiring manager, you need to sell the job and location. Also, understand their perspective by understanding their challenges for relocation. Here are a few things;
  • Company culture: People prefer to work for an organisation having a great culture. Employees want to work in a positive environment where they learn new things. As a hiring manager try to highlight company values to the candidate.
  • Offer flexibility: Relocation is a big decision for the candidates. Offering flexibility makes it easy. Be flexible with dates and office hours for the initial period.
  • Benefits: Offering more benefits like relocation bonus, joining bonus, helps with accommodation can attract candidates to join the organisation. As a hiring manager, be ready to negotiate on the financial part.
As a hiring company, you can’t think only about the needs of the company, the need of candidates is equally important. Think about it and make the relocation easy for the candidates too!
