The battle for Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) has traditionally been waged among large organizations – companies that need more than 1,000 jobs filled annually. But the right RPO also makes a perfect fit for a mid-size organization – a company with as few as 100 hires annually.
Kinetix, the RPO firm for growth companies, explains in a new and engaging executive brief, “An Eight-Round Knockout: The Right RPO KO’s Mid-Size In-House Recruitment,” why mid-size organizations have been neglected by most RPO firms and delivers solid counterpunches to the eight most common arguments mid-size organizations make against considering an RPO.
“The bottom line is that the old way of thinking doesn’t make sense today, not when you have RPOs that are designed and built to deliver the goods specifically on behalf of, and to serve the needs of, the mid-size organization,” Shannon Russo, chief executive officer with Kinetix, says in the first installment of “An Eight-Round Knockout: The Right RPO KO’s Mid-Size In-House Recruitment,”
The eight most common arguments a mid-size organization makes against working with an RPO are:
1. Recruitment Is Core to Our Business
2. With an RPO, We'll Lose Control Over Our Recruitment Process
3. With an RPO, We'll Lose Control Over Our Hiring Decisions
4. We Have Relationships with Specific Recruitment Vendors for Specific Needs
5. With an RPO, We’ll Lose Control of Our Employer Brand
6. An RPO Won't Understand Our Culture Like Our HR Does
7. An RPO Will Increase Our Costs
8. We Have a Corporate Recruitment Team Within HR
Part I of “An Eight-Round Knockout: The Right RPO KO’s Mid-Size In-House Recruitment” shines a light on Arguments 1 through 4. Arguments 5 through 8 are put to rest in Part II.
“It’s a new fight,” Russo says. “And we can prove that to anyone willing to step into the ring with us.”
