Strengthen Your Hiring Strategy with the SME Workforce Readiness Diagnostic
Finding and keeping the right people remains one of the biggest challenges facing employers today. To help businesses strengthen their hiring practices, IEC-BC and the IECC Network have launched the SME Workforce Readiness Diagnostic.
There are no right or wrong answers—just an honest, practical reflection of your current hiring and workforce practices. The diagnostic maps your approaches to role definition, candidate sourcing, skills assessment, and onboarding, providing an instant Personalized Hiring Profile with practical actions you can implement within 30 days.
Take the lead in shaping a tool built for Canadian SMEs. Join the pilot phase to help refine the Diagnostic while gaining immediate insights to strengthen your hiring strategy.
To celebrate the launch, the first 30 employers to complete the Diagnostic and feedback survey will receive a $50 Early Use Bonus. All participants who complete the feedback survey will also be entered into a draw to win a $350 gift card.
