Frequently asked questions

What is values-based recruitment?

Values-based recruitment is a hiring approach that focuses on assessing and selecting candidates based on their alignment with the core values and culture of an organisation. It involves identifying candidates whose personal values align with the company’s values to ensure a better fit and enhance employee engagement and performance.

Why is values-based recruitment important?

Values-based recruitment is crucial because it helps organisations build a workforce that is more engaged, motivated, and committed to the company’s mission. Employees who share common values are likely to collaborate better, experience higher job satisfaction, and contribute to a positive and cohesive work environment.

What methods are used in values-based recruitment?

Values-based recruitment employs various methods to assess a candidate’s alignment with an organisation’s values. These methods may include behavioural-based interviews, values-based questionnaires, scenario-based assessments, and situational judgment tests. Additionally, some organisations incorporate group activities or culture-fit interviews to gauge the candidate’s fit within the team.

Can values-based recruitment improve employee retention rates?

Yes, values-based recruitment has been shown to improve employee retention rates. When employees share the same values as their organisation, they are more likely to feel a sense of belonging and purpose, leading to higher job satisfaction and reduced turnover rates.

How can organizations measure the success of their values-based recruitment efforts?

Organisations can measure the success of values-based recruitment by tracking employee engagement, job satisfaction, and retention rates over time. Additionally, conducting periodic surveys to gauge employee alignment with the company’s values can provide valuable feedback. Positive trends in these metrics may indicate the effectiveness of the values-based recruitment approach.
