HOW GEARED UP ARE YOU FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF AN UPTURN? As the economy begins its rise out of recession the likely knock on effect will be that members of staff will feel it is now “safe” to begin to look for a new role and will no longer feel the need to delay job hunting.
How geared up are you, your business and your colleagues for a possible surge in recruitment to replace staff who leave this year?
At Recruitment Solutions we have been planning for the recruitment year and are building
a base of quality candidates in a range of areas and a variety of levels. We would be happy to discuss how we can best consult with you to ensure staff changes and transitions go smoothly and successfully.
HOW IS YOUR CREDIT RATING?* The latest report on payment times indicates that we are getting better, as businesses, at paying our bills. Joe Myers, Head of Commercial Credit at Experian’s Business Information Division, says: “Companies are more aware now than ever that their credit score is affected by their payment behaviour. While this enables them to negotiate improved terms as well as raise credit from alternative sources or suppliers, it also means that other businesses can make more informed decisions about working with them.”
With the strong possibility that we will be pulling away, if slowly, from the recession it is even more important for organisations to establish and maintain their credibility in the business arena.
*Recruiter
PROFESSIONAL RECRUITERS ARE TALENT DETECTORS* The Team at Recruitment Solutions, we believe, is very much more than a “CV Factory” and offers a more mature option for our clients. This is supported by a recent report from The Institute of Recruitment Professionals that says employers are seeking to tighten up their procedures and requirements for the recruitment of new staff.
Commenting on these trends Angela Masters, Chair of the Institute of Recruitment Professionals says: “The tightening of selection procedures shows that employers are recognising the importance of getting the recruitment process right.”
It is certainly a fantastic opportunity for us to highlight the added value that we can provide by putting the right candidates forward in the first place.
She adds “Recruitment professionals play a key role in digging beneath a candidate’s CV to find out what there are really about and are also equipped to look beyond easy pre-conceptions to identify those who can actually do the job rather than those who simply perform well at interview. As a result, all recruitment professionals are not just in the business of being effective “Lie Detectors”, we are in the business of being effective “Talent Detectors’.”
