Why anticipate back-to-school recruitment?

One thing is certain: back-to-school (or end-of-year) recruiting must start now.

At Alphéa Conseil, we'd like to remind you of this reality to help you approach the selection of your future collaborators with serenity. We're well aware of this: although companies are focused on the business recovery, and some are less confident, recruitment needs remain very much present.

It would be a shame to pass up the opportunity for excellent recruitment through lack of preparation or timing. Remember: it's essential to start recruiting before the July-August summer period!

But why should you start your back-to-school recruiting now?

Concretely, if you want to welcome a good profile from September 1, the right time to launch your recruitments is from June 15. This allows you to choose the right candidate with peace of mind, rather than in a hurry, while sending a strong signal to your teams: you're anticipating, you're organized, and you're preparing for the future with confidence.

Moreover, an employee recruited now -or during the summer - will have time to recharge his or her batteries before taking up his or her new position, and will be ready to commit fully as soon as the new school year begins. It's an approach that's both comfortable and effective. Because successful recruitment is, above all, anticipated recruitment.

Candidate availability before summer

Candidates are already thinking about the new school year! From June to mid-July, they're dynamic, motivated and ready to put their skills to work for a company that's just like them. They have a clear vision of their future, and want to find their future position by September.

Many imagine that companies put their recruitments on pause during the summer - due to vacations or the August shutdown - and that there are few opportunities advertised. This is a common misconception! In reality, recruitment never stops.

It's precisely now that you have the opportunity to capture the best profiles and prepare a successful integration for the new school year.

And remember: the most motivated candidates don't wait until the last minute. They're already in action, ready to commit. So, what do you choose for September: the best on the market, or what's left once the new school year starts?
