Introduction
Geeta Kumar Dr. McLaughlin MGMT 190 August 16, 2012 Evaluating St Vincent?s Hospital Recruitment Process 1. I believe St. Vincent?s Hospital is using to many recruiting sources, all of which are unsuccessful. Because there was 11 percent of nursing positions that were not filled five years ago and now it has increased to 23 percent. Having multiple recruiting sources can be beneficial only if they all are successful, but each source is unsuccessful and the hospital is wasting money and time paying for multiple ineffective recruitment sources. The background of the company shows that the turnover rate has increased which puts additional pressure on the recruiting process to provide large number of qualified candidates.

The company can also focus on asking the rehired candidate as to why they left the job so that the company can fix or improve the issue to prevent more employee turnover in the future. This way the company benefits by less cost and will receive feedback from the employee and the employee will be able to work in a comfortable environment, which will likely prevent turnover. 1. The stages in the recruitment process that seem to be most amenable to improvements are the workforce planning and the lack of recruiting internal candidates. The nurse recruiting strategy currently being used is missing the steps in the recruitment and selection processes; instead it is all over the place with multiple recruitment sources. The recruiters need to create a workforce planning and forecasting system where they decide the positions the firm will have to fill (which they have done successfully) and diversify their labor by expanding geographically fulfilling employees personal needs. In the background of the hospital it is evident that the turnover rate increased after putting an overload on the existing nursing staff since they would have to cover more hours due to the short amount of staff. ...read more.
