Considering RPO: How to Select the Right RPO for Your Company

 
Selecting the right RPO for your company

According to a recent survey by the Manpower Group, 38 percent of employers are struggling to overcome a global talent shortage. Employers have reported paying an average of $3,600 for nonexempt and over $6400 for exempt positions to advertise and acquire a new hire. To avoid these high costs of recruitment and the struggle to find qualified applicants, many companies are turning to Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO).

If you’re facing similar issues, consider RPO for your company. The experts at Skywalk Group advise the following tips to find the perfect RPO for your company!

Determine Your Specific Needs

Like many RPOs, Skywalk Group can be as involved as you need us to be. Before jumping in, determine what your company needs. For example, Skywalk Group offers on-demand, partial or complete outsourced recruiting services. We can help on a case by case basis, provide ongoing assistance in a specific area of your recruiting process or build a complete recruitment strategy and implement on your company’s behalf.

Stay Connected

Throughout the entire recruiting process, be sure to remain very open and honest with your company’s RPO representative. This transparency can be achieved through regular calls or meetings, which allow all individuals involved to express their concerns, review progress, and ask any questions openly.

Doing It Right Takes Time

Setting up the best recruitment process takes time. If rushed, opportunities may be missed causing frustration for both parties. Easing in to the relationship can help all involved to be more comfortable with the overall process.

Be Clear and Simple

Recruitment is not a “one size fits all” industry. In this field, terms change constantly, and every company describes their tasks in a variety of ways. Stay focused on simple descriptions, straightforward requirements and thoughtfully constructed questions.

At Skywalk Group, we take pride in filling your staffing needs with qualified employees, while saving you time, money, and resources. Contact Skywalk Group to discuss the ideal RPO solution for your company today!
