Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) with Devire

Companies are looking to minimise outlays at all costs and at the same time attract the best specialists. Finding the right candidates within a strict time frame, however, is proving to be a real challenge.

Is your company struggling with a lack of resources when it comes to hiring the best employees? Or maybe there is no HR team within your company structure that would be able to oversee this process?

The solution is RPO, which stands for Recruitment Process Outsourcing.

RPO has been shown to significantly optimise and improve the recruitment process.
 

The Benefits of Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

Recruitment Process Outsourcing visibly reduces capital expenditures, while accelerating the acquisition of key specialists: 

  • Reduces recruitment costs by up to 70%, 
  • Shortens recruitment times 30%, 
  • Increases recruitment flexibility and leads to improved forecasting; and a dynamic response to changing employment needs, 
  • Increases the quality and efficiency of the recruitment processes, which enables the acquisition of the most qualified  candidates,
  • Translates into long-term employment and reduced turnover. 

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing?

Recruitment Process Outsourcing involves a recruitment company absorbing a part or all of the Client’s recruitment processes. The recruitment company implements the RPO project under the Client’s brand, drawing on the expertise of an exclusive team, and providing the necessary tools that are based on predetermined KPI & SLA indicators. 

This solution is ideal for any industry struggling with increased or sudden recruitment needs. RPO services are often used by companies looking to expand their operations, or to enlarge or transfer existing processes.  RPO is also an optimal option for companies endeavouring to enter a new market and build their structures from scratch.
