Recruitment as a Service
When the average job posting can attract 250+ applicants, recruitment is a substantial undertaking for growing businesses. Often, this is time that you, as a busy business owner, don’t have. You need top talent located, interviewed, and onboarded as smoothly as possible. But when the average time from application to hiring for a job candidate is 36-49 days, in-house recruitment efforts can put a serious time strain on your team.
When your recruitment needs outpace your team’s capacity, bringing in a recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) partner or a professional staffing agency can make a world of difference. A dedicated team of 5-7 hiring professionals who are experts in your sector’s job market can make all the difference in finding and retaining the best talent for your organization.
Staffing Agency vs. Temp Agency vs. Recruitment Process Outsourcing Partner: What’s the Difference?
So what are your options for recruitment outsourcing? There are three main types of hiring partners a company can work with:
- A temp agency hires out their employees to fill short-term job openings your company posts.
- A professional staffing agency facilitates the hiring process for specific job postings, helping you fill a single or a few vacancies.
- An RPO partner works with your company as a long-term partner, developing hiring strategies, facilitating the recruitment process for vacancies, and meeting long-term company goals.
If you’re looking to fill a short-term vacancy or hire one or two new roles, temp or staffing agencies may be a good fit. But an RPO is the best choice if you’re looking for a complete recruitment solution that will serve you for years to come.
Recruitment as a Service Facilitates The Hiring Process From Start To Finish
Recruitment isn’t just about posting job listings and finding the right hiring candidate. Recruitment as a service through an RPO partner takes on all the aspects of recruiting, from tailoring job postings to finding the best candidates to interviewing and hiring and even developing forward-thinking recruiting strategies to support long-term plans.
Creating a seamless handoff to HR is another service your RPO team will provide in the hiring process and is not something a temp or staffing agency will do for you. After candidates accept job offers, your RPO team can guide your new hires through your HR department (or your HR outsourcing partner, depending on your business structure) to get started on completing required forms, required training like sexual harassment training, and orientation to their new job duties and office space.
