If you are still convinced that you need to hire an employee after evaluating your alternatives, you are in a better situation to communicate WHY you need to hire someone, and WHAT you need that person to do, and what you're willing to pay for it. No matter what means you use to communicate your message, be sure that you are able to articulate it clearly and concisely. The important thing to remember here is audience. Characterize the person you are trying to reach and put the message where he or she is likely to respond to it. Your Current Employees You can start with your own people.
Many companies offer an incentive to employees that refer a candidate to fill a position.
This has a number of advantages. Your own people are familiar with the culture and processes of your company, and are likely to be good judges of people that would fit well in that environment. Your current employees are also, hopefully, motivated to see the company succeed and will bring candidates who will fit that interest, as well as the best interests of the candidate. Colleges, Trade Schools, Etc. If you're looking for new graduates, contact the institutions that have the best-ranked programs for the skill or background you're looking for.
