Offer
• In this model one person does not manage/facilitate all the steps in the
process – this is done by a linear recruiting team.
• The team members specialize in the “step(s)” the manage/facilitate.
• Each team member is constantly looking for ways to execute their work in
better, faster, cheaper ways to beat previous productivity marks - thus
continual process improvement never ends and is better ensured.
• Team members are allowed to rotate from process role to another to avoid
burn out and create new challenges.
• Every step of the process measureable to enforce KPI monitoring and apply
Six Sigma – defects caught early on and course correction goes in effect.
