The challenge
Prior to the commencement of our Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) service, recruitment was managed by their Human Resources team which caused challenges and gaps in service as they could not dedicate as much time as they would have wanted, due to their other responsibilities. They were being pulled in too many directions.
In addition, there was a lack of a streamlined process and specialist expertise within the organization when it came to recruiting talent. Time-to-fill was lagging which hurt productivity.
A thorough understanding of the client’s culture combined with our expertise and resources enabled us to introduce best-in-class processes with a focus on sourcing talent directly and in advance of demand. Click the link below to find out more.
