Hiring guide

Build a hiring plan around real capacity

Prioritize the roles your team needs, assign ownership and account for the work required to assess candidates.

Connect each role to a business need

Record why the role is needed, the work it will own, the budget owner and the intended start window. Distinguish approved vacancies from possible future needs. Prioritize the roles that unblock the most important work, while accounting for the team's ability to interview and onboard people.

Review the plan as conditions change

For each active role, keep a hiring owner and an agreed assessment process. Use Draft's job and candidate views to inspect recruiting progress, then review budget and headcount decisions in the planning process your organization uses.

A hiring plan should not become a frozen list of promises. When a role pauses, changes or closes, update the people sourcing and interviewing for it, and communicate appropriately with candidates already in the process.
