According to recent research, ‘employers that use talent solutions from a Recruitment Process Outsourcing provider experienced a range of benefits’ – 96% improved hiring metrics, 51% increased hiring consistency and 42% reduced the cost of hiring.’

It’s clear to see why Recruitment Process Outsourcing is fast becoming the favored hiring method by employers across the country. But what actually is Recruitment Process Outsourcing? And how can you utilise it to benefit your business?

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing?

Recruitment Process Outsourcing has gained traction and popularity over the last few years, emerging as a strategic practice that allows organisations to employ efficient and effective ways of recruiting top industry talent.

Recruitment Process Outsourcing is officially defined as the delegation of all or some of the recruitment process to professional talent acquisition experts. For example, if you were to outsource your recruitment process, an RPO talent acquisition team would be cultivated and merged into your business.

This team would oversee the entire recruitment process, utilizing the latest recruitment technology, talent databases and their expert knowledge and connections to source a perfect hire for your organisation.

The process involves the in-depth sourcing, screening and selection of candidates, focusing on finding talent that not only possesses the skills necessary to excel in your role but also matches the cultural environment in which your organisation functions.

It’s an incredibly efficient, effective way to acquire the top talent for your organisation.
