For over 35 years, they have been helping people live healthier and happier lives. They are advocates of a healthy lifestyle, incorporating physical activity, proper nutrition, and positive thinking. They have asked for our help in filling a job position.&nbsp;<strong>Financial Controller \/ Plant Controller<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This company has a worldwide reach, with part of its management based in Italy. For an extended period, approximately six months, they attempted to fill the Plant Financial Controller position through their own HR department and other internal resources, but without success. Subsequently, they confidently turned to our recruitment agency, as we are a Slovak recruitment agency with a good understanding of the job market in selected Slovak cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OUR SOLUTION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have agreed with the client to collaborate on filling the required job position through recruitment. We conducted a thorough job analysis, where we purposefully and in detail inquired about all the details and expectations of the employer. We were interested in the detailed job description, the employee's responsibilities, challenges, plans, requirements for personal traits, desired work experience, education, right up to the salary offer and benefits, which must be attractive considering the location where the company is situated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequently, we developed advertising and published a targeted job offer on the Profesia portal. Our activities were further associated with searching for suitable candidates matching the given criteria in other available databases. The result was 58 candidates with whom we actively worked. Several of them underwent an interview with our consultants. We presented 10 candidates to the client in the first round. The client selected 3 suitable candidates from them for personal meetings and interviews with company representatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since the client also has part of their management in Italy, the following meeting \u2013 a Skype interview \u2013 was necessary at this level as well. A Skype work interview was conducted with 2 of our candidates. 1 candidate advanced to the shortlist. The client was deciding between the candidate recommended by us and a candidate recommended by their own employee. The client ultimately chose their own candidate. When asked what was the deciding factor, the client replied that it was very close (a 49:51 split), but they wanted to give the recommended candidate an opportunity. Subsequently, the client admitted that the financial costs associated with the recruitment were also decisive. Therefore, they preferred the candidate for whom they did not have to pay a recruitment fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a few months, however, this step proved to be not entirely ideal. The new employee had to be let go during their probation period, and the selection process for the Financial Controller position had to be repeated. They contacted us to ask if we could reach out to our candidate and if they were still interested in the position. This is usually a very difficult step, and there's typically a very small chance that a suitable candidate will still be interested in an offer after several months. Quality individuals are not available on the job market for too long. We didn't have information on whether they had accepted another job offer in the meantime, but they were willing to hear us out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We managed to re-motivate the candidate to the point where they are willing to meet with company management again to discuss the terms of employment. In the final decision-making phase, they prioritized another, very interesting offer linked to their personal and professional growth and international experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HR services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the recruitment process for the Financial Controller \/ Plant Controller position, we provided the client with initial personnel consulting. During this process, we identified the employer's expectations and formed a clear understanding to develop a profile of a suitable candidate for successful placement. We initially prepared a salary expectations analysis for the controller position considering the company's location. In addition to other efforts, we created an appropriate job advertisement for candidate sourcing. The recruitment process itself involved conducting interviews, testing applicants, and providing ongoing consultation to select suitable candidates. The project is still ongoing. We presented 2 new candidates to the client, but the requirement was not met. The client's location and the region in which they operate are significant obstacles to filling the position with a suitable candidate.<br>Several months have passed since the assignment on July 29, 2019. If the client had not hesitated and delayed in selecting and providing feedback on candidates in the initial phase of cooperation, they could have had the job position resolved and successfully filled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bansk\u00e1 Bystrica Region<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">58 candidates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2 different approaches to candidate selection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trigon-consulting.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/6474831bc0b99a87ce4614b1_business.webp\" alt=\" srcset=\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Provided personnel services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personnel consulting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We provided consultations in the HR field and current information about the position to be filled to a client who provides services in the industry in Slovakia and abroad, from the perspective of our many years of experience and current labor market demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payroll consulting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recruiting<\/p>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":5654,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","kategorie-hr-blog":[80],"class_list":["post-5490","hr-blog","type-hr-blog","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","kategorie-hr-blog-pripadova-studia"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Pr\u00edpadov\u00e1 \u0161t\u00fadia: Finan\u010dn\u00fd kontrol\u00f3r \/ Kontrol\u00f3r z\u00e1vodu | TRIGON Consulting<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Ak\u00fd probl\u00e9m s n\u00e1borom mal klient?
