With the rapid changes in the market, many companies have the need to implement an effective recruitment strategy to meet high demands and hire the best talent.
This process can be carried out in different ways and can vary according to each company’s culture and needs at that time. In the case of organizations that need quick and assertive hiring, internal recruitment may not be the best option.
Therefore, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), a type of business process outsourcing (BPO), can serve as a solution to identify and recruit qualified professionals, in a faster and more agile way.
Keep reading to learn more about recruitment outsourcing and how to implement this strategy within a company.
What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing?
RPO is the talent acquisition process carried out externally by a third-party company. The main differential of this method is the transfer of the recruitment service to a specialized company responsible for searching, screening, evaluating, and hiring candidates.
In this sense, the RPO seeks and selects the best professionals for each function, observing the specificity that each client has, unlike other types of outsourcing that simply fill positions and identify qualified people.
Additionally, outsourced recruiting has the flexibility of on-demand hiring and can manage a range of activities from high-volume needs to specialized projects.
RPO benefits
In a highly competitive market, companies are increasingly raising the level of demand and constantly looking for specialized professionals capable of delivering results. Thus, the main reason companies choose to outsource recruitment is the need for more resources, speed or knowledge to meet these needs.
Recruitment outsourcing offers access to a vast talent pool and allows companies to attract highly qualified specialists aligned with the organization’s values. This model also makes it possible to recruit for numerous functions, at different levels, remotely or in person and in different locations, facilitating and expanding opportunities.
In addition, the expertise and resources of a specialized company enables a faster and more assertive recruitment. Outsourcing this process can provide a customized strategy for the needs and demands of each client, ensuring an effective and more accurate alignment.
This solution also manages to relieve a company’s HR sector and allow its employees to have more time to focus on core activities and carry out strategic business actions.
Certainly, a poorly done selection process can cause several losses to the company, such as premature dismissal of the employee, increased financial expenses and loss of time and productivity. In this sense, the implementation of a strategic RPO process can leverage the growth of an organization, improving the quality of products and services.
How to implement Recruitment Process Outsourcing
When implementing recruitment outsourcing, the process should be carried out by a company that is specialized and capable of achieving desired results. Because of this, it is important to carry out an advanced search and assess the competency of the outsourced team to guarantee the quality of the service.
After hiring, the next step in the process is to align the main objectives and expectations of the service with the outsourced company. At this point, it is essential to communicate all information about the current situation, including future needs and the structure of the organization to ensure the effectiveness of the process.
For best results, it is essential that the communication channel between your organization and the outsourced company is always open. In this way, it is possible to monitor the progress of the process and align the steps and deadlines according to your needs.
Finally, an RPO strategy developed by a qualified third-party company will allow you to identify the most qualified talent for your company. As a result, it can increase the quality of the recruitment process and your competitiveness in the market.
