Target date to fill

Having 20 conflicting top priorities pretty accurately describes a day in the life of most recruiters. You're usually working simultaneously for several hiring managers who all feel their open requisition should be your top priority. They not only want you to recruit the best talent available, they want it fast. Think about this. How would your situation change if you asked hiring managers for the specific date when the job actually needs to be filled? When it comes to recruiting, timing is everything, so let me share with you why it's important to determine a specific target date for all of your requisitions.

One reason to ask hiring managers for a specific target date is to help you determine which requisitions should be your top priority. It helps you focus on what needs to be done, rather than giving into the temptation to work on requisitions from your favorite hiring manager, or the most demanding. The target date also serves as your guide for the timing of your recruiting efforts. Timing is a critical component of recruiting.
