By Robert McNabb

It should come as no surprise that companies are paying close attention to their options for Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). Today, RPO has matured. It is seen as a means of addressing all major areas of concern for talent planners: building a better workforce, controlling operating costs, and executing business strategy. Consistent with demand, RPO providers now offer many choices for companies looking at their recruitment options. The promise is great. With the right RPO in place, a company can apply best-in-class methodologies and tools to develop its recruitment strategy, support its employment brand, and achieve a direct and positive impact on the business.

The publication draws from interviews with talent leaders who have undertaken successful RPO initiatives across a number of key industries, including oil and gas, telecommunications, global export (diary products) and financial services. Notably, the report highlights specific areas of interest beyond traditional cost-related points of comparison. Among the keys to success cited by talent leaders in the report, several areas of interest remained top of mind. These include: strategic capability, seamless relationship between provider and client, and a partnership approach to addressing talent issues.
