As organizations expand into new global territories, they face a new set of challenges when it comes to the staffing process. Culture plays a tremendous role in the talent acquisition strategies used. For example, if a US company has a career webpage that uses language that is only recognizable to Americans, it may be off-putting to other nations. And what is important in one culture in terms of job attractiveness, may not be important to another. Therefore, understanding these dynamics is crucial in securing talent on a global scale.

As organizations expand into new global territories, they face a new set of challenges when it comes to the staffing process. Culture plays a tremendous role in the talent acquisition strategies used.

And what is important in one culture in terms of job attractiveness, may not be important to another. Therefore, understanding these dynamics is crucial in securing talent on a global scale.

The organizational staffing process has four primary steps that should be accounted for.

Workforce Planning – HR and management work together to analyze the current workforce and then devise steps/plans to meet the organizations anticipated needs.
Job Analysis and Documentation – A thorough analysis of the job(s) is completed to determine the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs). Then, this information is documented and categorized according to job types and job descriptions.
Sourcing and Recruiting – Multiple channels are used to identify and recruit talent.
Selection and Assessment – Various selection and assessment methods (such as interviewing and assessment tests) are used to narrow down the applicant pool and eventually make the hire.
