Challenges in Administrative Support Staffing: Struggling to Find Qualified Candidates

All companies encounter challenges in hiring at one time or another, and administrative support staffing services from Lewis-Price can help ensure that your business has the staff it needs to run smoothly.

Sometimes when companies are looking to hire administrative support staff, it seems like qualified candidates just aren’t there. This can be extremely challenging for any position or industry, especially when companies are looking to fill support positions that keep things running. All companies encounter challenges in hiring at one time or another, and administrative support staffing services from Lewis-Price can help ensure that your business has the staff it needs to run smoothly.

Your Recruitment Process is Frustrating or Inefficient

One of the largest culprits for a slowdown in hiring, particularly when there seems to be plenty of candidates, is an inefficient hiring process. Many job applicants dislike being treated like a reference number rather than a person, and some even lose interest with repetitive or bland applications. While it would be ideal for your hiring staff to give each qualified candidate the attention they require, it can be challenging to give each applicant specialized care when your recruitment process is not optimized for volume. If you are tired of missing out on qualified candidates, consider administrative support staffing services from Lewis-Price. Recruiting top talent is what we do, and we have the resources and expertise to help resolve your hiring issues.

Your Expectations Are Not Realistic

When you have worked with a stellar team and are looking to hire additional staff, it is natural to want to hold potential employees to the same standard as the rest of your staff. However, it is crucial to remember that your employees learn and grow over time. Many businesses fall into the trap of looking for the “perfect” candidate, and in doing so, they miss out on plenty of applicants that would have done well in the position. A candidate that might be missing a skill or a certain amount of experience at the beginning still has the potential to grow into an incredibly valuable employee.

You Are Not Attracting the Right Applicants

Although modern advancements like social media and job posting websites have made posting vacancies easier, it can still be challenging to entice qualified job applicants. Whether you are suffering from a lack of applications overall or your applicants are simply not qualified, you need to make a change to your hiring strategy. The dedicated staffing professionals at Lewis-Price have the experience and tools necessary to help you find and attract top talent in your industry.
