A Michigan GLTAAC client is using TAAF matching funds to streamline their recruiting, starting with the creation of a job profile. The metal stamper began their search for a key manager by using a consultant to develop the job description. To create the job profile, the consultant first interviewed the firm’s internal team, defined the position’s priorities, determined best-fit traits, and then gained buy-in from all involved. After the profile was completed, the GLTAAC client continued by hiring a separate consultant to recruit the right candidate, based on the profile. The effort paid off with the recent hire of their new Business Development Manager. TAAF matching funds paid half the cost of the profile development, as well as the recruiting firm’s fees.
