If there is a detail that we cannot overlook when talking about the area of talent attraction is the multiple tasks that are carried out to attract and conquer the candidates adequate, without taking into account the entire evaluation phase; thorough and with very rigorous tests, to ensure that this professional really has all the skills mentioned in his CV.

As if this were not enough, once this person joins your team, you must find a way to develop their maximum potential, promoting them to contribute to the growth of your company, and then ensuring that they are satisfied in their position, maintaining you as an attractive employer in your mind; so that it does not go with the competition.
