Choose the delivery method your branch can respond to reliably. Connected calls can support immediate conversation when staff are available. Applications or structured lists can suit scheduled follow-up and documented intake. Compare outcomes at the same stage rather than assuming one format is always superior.
How to put it into practice
- Map staffed hours, recruiter capacity and the information needed before a conversation.
- Define what counts as a connected call, valid application and duplicate.
- Test a limited campaign and review accepted candidates and recruiter time.
A practical example
A branch with dedicated phone coverage may prefer calls during business hours and structured inquiries overnight. Another team may want résumés and screening answers delivered into its existing intake process.
What to measure
Compare cost per recruiter-accepted candidate and eventual start, including missed calls.
A mistake to avoid
Avoid paying for call volume without defining connection quality or buying forms that no one follows up.
