1. Recruitment Guide

Position: Sales Associate

Reports to: Store Manager

Qualifications: High School Diploma.
Good communication and writing skills.
Leadership and analytical skills.
Ability to learn and apply a variety of policies and procedures.
Work effectively as a part of a team. Relevant Labor Market: Regional Northeast Timeline: There are continuous hiring activities to interview future candidates for the positions. Activities to undertake to source well-qualified candidates: * Employee referrals * Posting job on company site * Radio and newspaper advertising * KIOSKS * Job services * Staffing Agency Staff Members involved: * Store Manager * Store Assistant Manager * Department Manager Budget: $2000- $3500 2. We understand that recruitment is one of the most difficult aspects for an organization, who is looking for potential employees. There are different types of recruitment, but I believe that Tanglewood should use an Open Recruitment process. This step will allow them to have a variety of applicants from different races, cultures and ages. Also, it will allow them to recruit employees with different strengths and weaknesses, helping them to create a team work that is supported by all of its members. On the other hand, Tanglewood can use targeted recruitment for high management positions that might require specific KSAOs, so the job can be developed.

* Media: Tanglewood is media advertising, such as print, radio, and television advertising sources, coupled with respondents filling out a standardized job application. This is an open method of recruitment since it gives the opportunity to a large body of people to apply for the job.

* Referrals: it is a targeted

    2. Tanglewood should use for Targeted Recruitment. The best targets for Tanglewood are Key KSAO shortages, reward seekers, and workforce diversity gaps. Recruitment methods: Kiosk- more of a targeted approach. Only individuals who really want to work for the company will come into the store to fill out application. Employee Referral- Existing employees refer individuals who are a very good potential person/organizational fit. Newspaper Advertisements- Open, very classic way to recruit. Everyone looks for jobs there. Career Fairs- Targeted, looking for certain types of qualifications and KSAOs.…

    In any organization it is crucial to make the correct choice between open and targeted recruitment because it dictates recruiting methods and sources. I believe that Tanglewood would definitely have an open recruitment approach. Their qualifications are broad and allow anyone to apply for an opening. The media can be considered an open recruitment because it is received by a large amount of people and allows any applicant to apply. The kiosks would also be because it is not segmenting the candidates in any way. Having a targeted recruitment would not be a good choice because Tanglewood is not specific in what they are looking for. By having an open form of recruitment it allows for a larger pool of applicants and could bring more diversity into the workplace. Another positive…

    Currently, Tanglewood is trying to achieve a companywide environment that mirrors their blueprint of how they ran their 10 stores in 1984. The structure at that time was focused on employee participation, customer satisfaction, and profitability. The company’s culture and values are distinct from most of their competitors. This allows each employee or associate an environment to grow and achieve various positions within the company. That being said, the following are my recommendations for how Tanglewood could staff their operations.…
