In this episode of SYS Hiring the Right People, Steve talks about how you can process any number of applicants down to a shortlist in a matter of minutes!

 

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

• You could spend days sifting through applicants and still miss the gems. Using a applicant funnel form (eg via google docs) can save you so much valuable time. Once your applicants have filled in your form, you can then export the data to a spreadsheet then filter and sort accordingly!
  
  

All your questions bar one will be numerical or yes/no which makes filtering out and sorting to meet your criteria simple and easy. However, for your one long-form question you will need to use the app grammarly, which will give you a score on how good their grammar is as well as any errors. It’s an objective way to score applicants on their written English.

ABOUT THE HOST

Steve used to be a slave to his business but when he moved to Sweden in 2015, he was forced to change the way he worked. He switched to running his businesses remotely and after totally nailing this concept he decided to spend his time helping other small business owners do the same. Steve’s been investing in property since 2002, has a degree in Computing, and worked as a doctor in the NHS before quitting to focus full-time on sharing his systems and outsourcing Methodology with the world. He now lives in Sweden and runs his UK-based businesses remotely with the help of his team of Filipino and UK-based Virtual Assistants.

 

Most business owners are overwhelmed because they don't know how to create systems or get the right help.
