Employees can make or break a company’s success. A top-quality recruiter like Imeila Fonua and the team at Meta in Provo, Utah, can offer numerous benefits to a company seeking unrivaled employees.
Fonua recently discussed five top reasons why successful companies hire recruiting firms.
Reasons Why a Company Needs a Recruiter
Broader Access to Talent
The highest-level job candidates are not often looking at websites loaded with job postings. Many times, they wait for new, outstanding opportunities to come to them. Or, they’re working with a recruiter who will connect them with top-level openings.
Recruiting companies already have large pools of top-tier candidates open to taking on new roles. These candidates were already vetted and are ready to find their perfect fit.
Save Time and Money
In the business world, time is money, and hiring processes waste a lot of time. Recruiting organizations relieve executives, managers, and other personnel of the arduous tasks of posting job openings, vetting candidates, reviewing resumes, and following up on employee recommendations.
A quality recruiter like Imeila Fonua can handle every step of the hiring process, so executives and employees can focus on the business’ success. Of course, company leaders still have opportunities to interview the candidates that are the best of the best, but recruiters reduce the hiring time from weeks or even months to days.
Reduce Employee Turnover
Many organizations experience high turnover rates because they’re not hiring the most qualified employees the first time around. High turnover rates mean lower employee satisfaction and more time and money wasted through performing the hiring process multiple times.
Recruiting firms locate candidates who are more likely to fit well in the company culture and understand the position’s requirements. A poor hire is a major financial and efficiency setback for companies, and recruiting teams can greatly reduce the chance of a poor hire.
Consistent Hiring
A qualified recruiter like Imeila Fonua will create a consistent recruiting process that provides consistently excellent results. Companies and employees agree on disliking uncertainty during the hiring process.
Employees want to know where they stand and what will happen next. Employers want to move through the process as efficiently as possible. Expert recruiters provide a predictable recruiting process understood by all candidates the entire time. This consistency streamlines the process and makes it a positive experience for potential employees.
Some of the highest-quality employees can be lost in a disorganized hiring process, but a top-notch recruiting company won’t let that happen.
Analyzing the Culture Fit
Desirable workplace culture is now one of the top requirements for potential candidates. Most want a company based on values, positive workplace relationships, and all individuals striving for employee and company success.
Recruiters help companies determine their specific culture and aid them in maintaining their values and culture through the hiring process and beyond. More desirable company culture means superior employee satisfaction and a better chance of locating the highest quality candidates.
