For those folks who manage, supervise, or work in a Cytogenetics laboratory:

What strategies do you use to prospectively hire scientists in Cytogenetics based on volumes, productivity metrics, and workload balance? 

For context, my laboratory traditionally has reactive hiring practices, but I would like to be more proactive since this is a specialized field where it is hard to come by qualified  individuals. 

Thank you in advance!
