Global Recruitment Trends

Recruitment practices are increasing throughout the world because of shortage of skilled staff and advancement in technology. The recruitment industry is elaborating these changes by developing strategic alliances and global partnering to ensure access to the best candidates worldwide.

Professionalism, technical competence and the development of world best practice are the hallmarks of successful engineering recruitment agencies. Nowadays, many organizations have moved to outsourcing all of their non-core activities.

Recruitment agencies are moving towards sourcing candidates through internet job boards enabling recruitment activity to occur in real time. The ability to recruit internationally has been a huge development and blessing for organizations using these services.

In Asia, the growth in temporary and contract positions is a continuing trend and one that is already emerging as a significant growth area in Australia.

As there is no licensing requirement for recruitment agencies, almost anyone can set up a business with little accountability for their actions. The closest we have to licensing in Australia is membership to the Recruitment and Consulting Services Association (R.C.S.A.), the peak industry body throughout Australia and New Zealand.

Job Network agencies are contracted to find jobs for unemployed job seekers in many fields, therefore their key focus is on the job seeker. Private agencies provide a service to employers using their skill, expertise, recruitment systems and networks to source the right candidates whether currently employed or not for their client companies.

Engineering is a major growth area and positions will continue to emerge globally for skilled and qualified personnel. It is pleasing to note that UK is at the forefront in many areas within the recruitment profession.

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing

The RPO is defined by the Recruitment Process Outsourcing Association as :"when a provider behaves as a company's internal recruitment function for a piece complete of its jobs. RPO providers administer the whole recruiting/hiring procedure from job profiling through the on-boarding of the fresh hire, together with staff, technology, method and reporting. A appropriately managed RPO will progress a company's time to hire, boost the quality of the candidate pool, supply demonstrable metrics, decrease price and get better governmental compliance."
The RPO Alliance, a group of the Human Resources Outsourcing Association (HROA), accepted this description in February 2009: "Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a type of business process outsourcing (BPO) where an employer transfers complete or fraction of its recruitment processes to an exterior service provider. Occasional recruitment support, for example temporary, contingency and executive search services is more analogous to out-tasking, co-sourcing or just sourcing. In this example the service provider is "a" source for certain types of recruitment activity. The major difference between RPO and other types of staffing is Process. In RPO the service provider assumes possession of the process, while in other types of staffing the service provider is part of a process controlled by the organization buying their services.
