The HR best practice is selective hiring. This enables an organization to bring in employees who add value. You can't just hire anyone; you want people who are fit for the job. Companies do their utmost best to hire exceptional people because they add the most value to the business. Companies must plan not only for staffing needs at the top of the company, but ... Identify the talent, skills, and experience the company will need over the next 5 to 10 years

HR's scope is important to first delineate. HR is much more than hiring, HR is responsible to manage existing agreements (non-disclosures, innovations, consulting, options, stock grants, employment).  As with any new organization, laying out objectives, survey of existing information, and schedule to implement goes without saying. A HR department needs to first have an understanding of company goals, boundaries of budget, job descriptions, legal agreements to employ and time frame requirements. As it relates to recruiting, its important to have an organized and thoughful approach as it is external facing and at times may present disorganization, ill-will with individuals looked over or passed over, or disenfranchise existing employees/contractors.

The first step is to engage an HR consultant to identify and hire an HR manager who will form the nucleus of the HR department.

Secondly, the team will collectively create the HR strategy, policies and procedures.  

Thirdly a skills and manpower audit will be carried out.

Fourthly, missing skills will be hired while reduntant skills will be layed off.

I can only recommend observing the organization in place for a period of 3 to 6 months and understanding how and why the company has organized itself over the past 10 years. During this observation period, it is necessary to analyze good practices and areas for improvement and gradually propose evolution through dialogue with the concerned staff.
