Each year, your district is one of over 25 school districts that participate in a recruitment fair that tries to attract graduating post secondary teacher candidates. Typically the local post-secondary institutions graduate upwards of sixty five new teacher candidates annually. You are the new Director for Recruitment and Placement with your school district. You have been asked to overhaul the district’s current process for its Spring Recruitment Fair with the local post-secondary institutions. Design a recruitment process appropriate for this type of event. The goal is to help your district standout among the large number of districts who are also recruiting these prospective teacher candidates. How will you engage these potential employees in a way that encourages them to apply for positions with your district when the labor market is so constrained? What values will you focus on in your recruitment processes? What are your differentiators? How do you sell your district’s value proposition? What data will you need prior to building the program and after the program? What specific action steps, if any, can you take to secure commitments from them now? Create a comprehensive marketing and recruitment strategy designed specifically for this recruitment fair.
