Project scope

What is the main goal for this project?

Our company has dozens of staff members and volunteers with diverse backgrounds and experiences. However, we have had some challenges recruiting top-quality talent. Finding individuals who can invest their time in our mission can be costly.

This project will involve several different steps for the students, including:

  • Documenting the current state of our staff and volunteer recruitment process, from the time the resource need is identified to the time the position is filled.
  • Creating visualizations such as data flow diagrams to identify strengths and pain points in our recruitment process.
  • Assessing our current process and making recommendations for improvements and efficiencies.
  • Documenting and mapping a target state process.
  • Suggesting feedback mechanisms to gather input from staff, volunteers, and applicants.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

  • Documentation of our current recruitment process
  • Visualization of our current recruitment process and identification of strengths and limitations
  • Assessment of the current process and recommendations for improvements
  • Documentation of a target state process

Bonus steps would include:

  • Recommending feedback mechanisms for stakeholders in the recruitment process

Final deliverables should include

  • A final report.
  • A presentation.

How will you support learners in completing the project?

  • Our recruitment practices
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.
