I am expecting plenty of applicants 

The primary focus of the recruitment process is active job seekers and the networks of colleagues. This means that you may use the standard options that the Recruitment Department has to offer. If the response is discouraging, you may choose to invest in additional recruitment during a new recruitment round. 

Example of a recruitment campaign

The job advertisement will be posted on: 

  • The ru.nl job vacancies page
  • LinkedIn/Academic Transfer

You can also distribute the job advertisement through the networks of colleagues. 

Actions

  • Human Resources (HR) will submit the completed job advertisement format to recruitment [at] ru.nl
  • Recruitment will edit the text, set up the system and publish the vacancy.

Time frame 

Three to five workdays from submission to publication. 

I expect the recruitment process to be difficult and I am also pressed for time

In this case, you may use the standard process and limited additional recruitment. We will use media that is aimed at the target group and partly focus on latent job seekers.

Example of a recruitment campaign

The job advertisement will be promoted via additional media, such as job boards, social media advertisements or website banners. 

Actions

  • The vacancy holder and HR will submit the target group analysis format and a summary of the recruitment profile to recruitment [at] ru.nl.
  • Recruitment will get in touch about expanding the target group analysis and also share a plan of action. 

Time frame and costs

One to two weeks after the target group analysis has been discussed. Costs will be charged for additional media and resources.

I expect the recruitment process to be difficult and recruitment quality is more important than the speed of the process

In this case, you may use the standard process and more extensive additional recruitment. We will use content that has been specifically developed for the vacancy and focus specifically on latent job seekers. 

Example of a recruitment campaign

In addition to the job advertisement, additional job content will be created and promoted. An example of this is an article about the day in the life of a colleague who works in the department. 

Actions

  • The vacancy holder and HR will submit the target group analysis format and a summary of the recruitment profile to recruitment [at] ru.nl.
  • Recruitment will get in touch about expanding the target group analysis and also share a plan of action. 

Time frame and costs

Three to four weeks after the target group analysis has been discussed. Costs will be charged for additional media and resources.

The recruitment process is extremely difficult and I am dealing with several job vacancies or a prolonged job vacancy

In this case, you may use the standard process and more intensive additional recruitment. Depending on the complexity of the recruitment and the recruitment needs, we will look at which actions have the greatest potential of success. 

Example of a recruitment campaign

An ongoing job advertisement campaign will be organised, with a possible target group-specific landing page on ru.nl.

Actions

  • The vacancy holder and HR will submit the target group analysis format and a summary of the recruitment profile to recruitment [at] ru.nl.
  • Recruitment will get in touch about expanding the target group analysis. A concept for the plan of action will be handed over the following week.

Time frame and costs

Four to twelve weeks after the plan of action has been discussed, depending on the solution that you have chosen. Costs will be charged for additional media and resources. 

Other information

  • This information is given as an indication of the possibilities, follow-up actions, time frame and consequences that are associated with a specific solution strategy. This overview is therefore far from complete. Over time, it may turn out that another solution is more appropriate.
  • Regardless of which additional recruitment process you choose, HR will provide basic information on the procedure during the preparation process and will also submit the completed job advertisement format to recruitment [at] ru.nl. This will be done after the check has been carried out at Radboud WerknaarWerk and at the start of the Recruitment Department’s standard process.
  • In an effort to ensure continuity in the follow-up of your enquiry, recruitment [at] ru.nl will be the first point of contact in all cases.
