Описание: Since the 1950s there has been a persistent shortage of sci-tech librarians, and as more librarians retire or change positions, the prospect looms that the profession will only depopulate further. Tackling this difficult challenge, Recruiting, Training, and Retention of Science and Technology Librarians gathers together into one source the perspectives of top library administrators and managers as well as front-line librarians who present the latest research and practical strategies to find, train, and keep those valuable specialized professionals. This book explores in depth timely issues and presents creative perspectives and innovative solutions to this persistent problem in subject-specialized libraries. As the baby-boom generation of science and technology librarians begins to retire, training and keeping sci-tech librarians will become even more crucial. Recruiting, Training, and Retention of Science and Technology Librarians discusses the "replacement gap" problem in libraries, including who should be recruited, how they should be trained, and how to retain them once hired. Several authors address the field's long-standing specialist vs. generalist debate, bringing new data and experience-driven perspectives to this challenging issue. Topics in Recruiting, Training, and Retention of Science and Technology Librarians include:
updating the cultural image of librarians to make the profession more appealing
a comprehensive literature review
how to cultivate candidates who are dedicated to service and love research and learning
practical approaches to improve the visibility and attractiveness of science librarianship
the skills and support needed to become a successful science librarian
an innovative program to recruit undergraduates
an in-depth survey of practicing science and technology librarians
the challenges of science librarianship in Africa
library and information science educators as recruiters for sci-tech librarians
creative strategies to recruit and retain librarians
adapting aspects of first-year student retention programs as a model for library retention programs
how professional competencies can be used for recruitment, training, and retention
and more
Recruiting, Training, and Retention of Science and Technology Librarians is a timely, important resource for college and university administrators, and public, special, academic, and government librarians.

"Victor Assad uncovers longstanding empirical research from I/O psychologists on how to best match job candidates to jobs and the best of today's digital technology. He sees a world (that is emerging today) in which AI ontologies (which are identifying information and relationships about today's global and diverse workforces) will make significant improvements for matching candidates to jobs while reducing recruiting cycle times, costs and selection biases. Victor points out that HR now has the digital tools it needs to dramatically transform recruiting and the role of the recruiter. HR can now build strategic talent pools, improve the employee experience, and digitally collect insightful analytics that will open up a new era of understanding on what truly drives employee performance and innovation." --Angela Hood, Founder and CEO of ThisWay Global.

The USA and Canada welcomes every year significant numbers of immigrant professionals who have high levels of formal education (Bachelors, Masters and Ph.D.) as well as extensive experience; yet a significant fraction of these immigrants are unemployed or underemployed. The purpose of this book is to help US and Canadian organizations make full use of the significant human capital that immigrants represent. This book will help organizations:
- Modify their recruitment and selection process to avoid rejecting culturally different candidates for reasons that are not related to their ability to do the job - Develop and promote culturally diverse employees to ensure that they retain and capitalize on the new ideas that these employees bring Highly- practical the book is divided into two parts: - - The first part focuses on the recruiting process. It takes readers through the recruiting process used by most organizations and examines why cultural differences can throw this process off . The discussion is framed by an introduction explaining what cultural differences are and a description of cross-cultural communication issues and suggested solutions. - The second part examines the retention and promotion of culturally different employees. The turnover of culturally different people is often higher than average and they are proportionately less represented in the higher echelons of large organizations. The work examines the root causes of these issues and proposes solutions that individuals and organizations can implement.

Описание: This groundbreaking guide overturns old, failed hiring practices and reveals how to create a powerful, effective workforce designed for the long run
Great recruiters think like sales and marketing people: their job is not merely to post a job and wait to see who applies, it is to go out into the market, start conversations, and hunt for the top prospects. And if you want great recruitment in your organization, it starts with having great recruiters.
To prepare your recruiters and hiring managers for this new mindset, Hiring Right presents a model for finding, engaging, closing, and retaining the top candidates and high performers in your market.
In Part One, Trends, you'll discover how recruitment has changed and what those changes mean for the future; how candidate attitudes and expectations have evolved; how technology has impacted both sides of the job hunt--the employer and the candidate--and how increasing pressure on recruiters and hiring managers alike is making the task of hiring the right person harder.
In Part Two, The Model, you'll explore a new way of thinking about and managing recruitment. Simon Parkin sets out an end-to-end process based on over 20 years managing talent acquisition for a number of blue-chip organizations and running the firm he founded, The Talent Company.
In Part Three, Execution, you'll get practical instructions and advice for implementing the model in your own organization.
What you learn by reading Hiring Right will make it easier to hire great talent. None of this is theory or blue-sky thinking. Throughout the book, you'll see examples--some inspirational, others cautionary--drawn from daily life at the companies Parkin has worked with. Hopefully, you will find yourself thinking "a-ha " at various points, nodding in recognition at others, and highlighting, underlining, and scribbling notes in the margin in every chapter.
Описание: This book is for those who are chairing their first search, trying to avoid some of the mistakes they made during their last search, interested in picking up a few pointers that have helped other department chairs and deans, or hoping to get the next hire right simply because they are dedicated to the job.
