Agree on the role before sourcing
Write the outcomes expected in the first six months, required evidence and constraints. Separate must-haves from preferences so the shortlist does not become artificially narrow.
Design the smallest useful process
Use one screening step, focused interviews and a clear decision owner. Every extra round needs a distinct question it answers.
Close the loop quickly
Set response expectations, send updates and record decisions. Candidate experience is mostly operational reliability, not elaborate employer branding.
