Hidden Wastes - Inventory
Look at your organization and determine the TAKT time to fill your recruitment needs.
If necessary extend the time out for a week. 480 min x 5 = 2400 min per week
Consider this scenario – Your hiring manager calls and tells you that he/she needs a new hire completed in 3 days. You are currently working on 75 searches. How much time do you need to complete his request?
1440 minutes /75 searches /480 = .04 seconds per search
Given your organizational demands is this reasonable?
