Before the selection process can begin, you will need to determine how you will find your candidates for relocation. Other considerations are the application process itself, whether a formal nomination or referral is necessary, and what documents candidates will need to submit.

The selection process should also be clearly set out and documented. For example, will you shortlist candidates who will then be interviewed by a selection committee, and if so, who should be part of this selection committee, and against what criteria will they select candidates? Clarifying these processes and the associated timeframes will help you decide when the selection process will need to commence.
