Talent Sourcing Program

The OHR Talent Sourcing Program provides a flexible, cost-effective solution for your department staffing needs. 

Whether looking for temporary coverage or evaluating candidates for a permanent position, this program saves your department time and resources while delivering a pool of qualified talent.

• A broad pool of candidates: Access to a varied range of qualified candidates vetted by the OHR Talent Acquisition team. 
• Comprehensive support: OHR will handle recruiting and interviewing, so your team can focus on core responsibilities.
• Cost efficiency: Reduce hiring costs by filling roles with standout performers.  
• Flexibility: Hire staff quickly to accommodate department growth, turnover, peak workloads, leaves of absence or special projects. 
• Talent development: Identify potential long-term hires by allowing candidates to showcase their skills and fit within the department. 

Step one: Start the talent sourcing process. 

Complete the Talent Sourcing Request, then submit the form and a job description to OHR. The OHR team will meet with your department to discuss staffing needs, explain the process, answer questions, and review the associated fees. 

OHR will then complete the following steps: 

1. Send your job description to our sourced candidate pool to gauge interest. 
2. Provide a list of pre-screened candidates for you to interview. 
3. Check references and criminal history. 
4. Verify education credentials as needed for specified roles. 

Step two: Select a candidate. Inform OHR which candidate you want to hire. 

OHR will process all required university, state and federal employment forms and complete background checks. They will also coordinate with you and the candidate to determine a start date and initiate the hiring process. 

Step three: Onboard your new employee. 

Coordinate hardware and software needs and access with the IT support team within your department to ensure the new employee has a functional workspace. Your department is also responsible for providing the new employee with the necessary resources and access to required training, department procedures and systems. If the employee is new to ASU, schedule them to attend new employee orientation, if necessary. 

Step four: Evaluate OHR values your feedback.
