How to utilize SCARF model in recruitment? In this week's #TalentBuzz, I talk with Arsaman Bahrami, Head of People at Precisely, and we break down the SCARF model and how you can take your recruitment to the next level with this. SCARF stands for: 🐝 Status: We all want to stand out from the crowd and feel important, and in a recruitment process, our perceived status can be affected either positively or negatively. 🐝 Certainty, the C in the model. As humans, we naturally like to know what's going on and to have certainty about what will happen. In a recruitment process, a lack of certainty can affect our ability to perform. 🐝 Autonomy is our sense of control over events. In a recruitment process, the perceived control over the process and the power balance can often swing in favor of the recruiter or hiring manager. 🐝 Relatedness is the sense that we belong and are in the in-group. The ability to connect with others stands as one of the strongest motivators we have, but how can we use it to improve the recruitment process? 🐝 Fairness - the "F" in the SCARF model, which is a crucial but potentially damaging aspect of recruitment Make sure to subscribe to the podcast & to learn more, check out the following links: TalentBee.io website for more ideas on SaaS Talent Acquisition My personal LinkedIn Profile to connect TalentBee’s LinkedIn Profile TalentBee’s Instagram (mostly stuff about working in a Talent Acquisition agency!)
