Why use diagrams to illustrate the HR Recruitment Process?

Well-designed recruitment, selection, and onboarding processes are crucial to building an effective team. Using modern creative graphics to show the necessary steps to fill the job vacancy successfully will help you tell a story and make sure the audience gets all your ideas.

The recruitment process takes care of identifying the vacancy needs, finding, selecting, and finally hiring the best candidate for the job. Finding the best candidates is only part of building an effective team. The process of onboarding new employees can be one of the most critical factors in ensuring that recently hired talent will be productive, contented workers.

If you are speaking in front of your team and explaining the process to them, it is a good idea to start a presentation by clarifying the definition of the process.

Below we put the diagram examples you can use to depict the HR recruitment, selection, and onboarding processes.

Visualize the recruitment and selection process in a flowchart

To illustrate such multi-component processes as recruitment and selection, you can use a spiral diagram. You can include common steps such as:

• Job Description
• Job Posting or Referral
• Candidate Application
• Selection Steps
• Screening
• Offer
• Intention Letter
• Hiring

We also used color coding to make the three stages more distinguishable and symbols to make the slide more eye-pleasing.

Alternatively, you can use such a ribbon diagram to show the phases of the recruitment process:

Show the candidate selection process

Illustrate the candidate selection process with a 2-step diagram, including candidate application and second selection. Outline more details by adding points for each stage: CV, motivational letter, video CV, pre-screening questions, interview, presentation of candidate, tests & questionnaires, case studies, assessment center, or input of direct manager.

Present the hiring process – comparison with onboarding

You can start off by defining what the onboarding process is in case you want to complete the hiring process with and without it. Below you can see an example of a definition slide illustrated with a symbol:

Here’s how you can distinguish the 2 versions of the hiring process: with and without the pre-onboarding phase. Usually, the process includes the following milestones:

• Signed contract – the beginning of pre-boarding
• Getting info about the workplace, company policy, and products
• First welcome day
• Onboarding – getting to know the workplace and products
• The employee is ready for work

In the slide example above we used different colors for each stage, so it will be easier for the audience to see which stages are different and the same for both process versions.
