Who doesn’t want to hire the best employees?

The correct answer is, of course, no one. There is a little-known first step in the application process that will help you recruit the right person for the right job. That first step, utilizing an Employee Applicant Letter, is an efficient and inexpensive way to screen out employees who may not be a good fit for your company.

This approach involves crafting a carefully worded letter that, while introducing the job candidate to your organization, also communicates the expectations, values, and mission of the organization. The job seeker is asked to read the letter before receiving an application. Then they are asked whether they agree with and accept the goals and intentions of the letter. If so, they are given an application and the process goes forward. Applicants who may not choose to make such a commitment are wished well as they continue their job search.

Use on Zoom and other digital/online platforms

This approach of seeking job candidates who are comfortable with the organization’s expectations also works well on Zoom and other platforms. The difference is that the person is given the letter and the opportunity to go forward or not electronically.

An employee applicant letter sets the tone for those who desire to become members of the organization in a clear and positive manner. You will find that informing a potential employee about the organization is worth the investment. Also, sharing values and performance standards reduces ambiguity with respect to employee expectations.
