To get right to the point: for 25 years, recruitment has not received the attention it deserves. Not even now, in this tight labor market. Incomprehensible right? <\/p>\n
Because the success of your company or organization is carried by your employees. And how do you get the most motivated and talented employees? <\/p>\n
Indeed, recruitment!<\/p>\n
In this tight job market, the best candidates don’t come to you by themselves. They have to be spotted and enticed into contact through a personal approach, an enormously labor-intensive process. <\/p>\n
In addition, developing and promoting a positive employer image of the company, including the company culture, values and opportunities for growth has become incredibly important. This can set your organization apart from competitors. <\/p>\n
Recruitment is also the first contact a potential new colleague has with your company. The first impression is decisive in choosing a new employer. So it is actually your company’s signboard. <\/p>\n
After the first impression, it is very important that the application process goes off without a hitch. Think for example of good personal feedback after a job interview, the number one wish of applicants. Because that is also where your company’s reputation lies in the hands of recruitment. <\/p>\n
Starred research shows:
\n60% of job applicants have experienced a negative candidate experience at some point.
\n72% have shared this online.
\nMost people check at least 6 reviews before forming an opinion about your organization.
\nSome 55% of job applicants avoid companies about which they have read bad reviews.<\/p>\n
Conclusion: giving recruitment the attention, time and money it deserves is critical to the future-proofing of your business. That’s why we’ll be sharing our learnings from 25 years of recruitment with you in the near future. <\/p>\n
