Innovations in Staffing
Welcome to the future. Can you imagine having a seasoned HR professional at your fingertips 24/7 to assist you with all your staffing needs? Can you imagine having a proprietary portal into a website that will house every candidate who applies, all the notes on every candidate and even a recorded 30 minute job interview with the candidates YOU select? Imagine not having to spend thousands of dollars per hire to bring in candidates from out of town and still be able to view them face-to-face in an interview setting…using YOUR company questionnaire.
Well, there is a service launching right now that will do just that. What’s more – it will lower your cost per hire, time-to-fill and raise the bar on talent. http://www.360WorkForce.com is a brand spanking new staffing service that will revolutionize the way you work.
Like in most cities, in Tulsa, companies utilize local staffing companies to assist in the sourcing and identification of candidates for open positions. This can take up to 2 – 3 weeks depending on the criteria and availability of talent. Once the outside staffing companies have identified possible candidates, they are screened by in-company HR staff to determine who will be brought in for first round interviews. This can take 1 – 2 weeks (we are now up to, at least, 3 weeks). The identified candidates are contacted and travel (if out of town) is coordinated with the schedules of those who will interview them. This can take an additional 1 – 2 weeks. Lots of money is spent on flights, hotel rooms, meals, rental cars, mileage, etc. If you are lucky, you will find a couple of contenders out of the first round…if not, you start over.
Well, you get the picture, you are expending resources at every point in this archaic process. It can take 60+ days to fill a position.
If you would like to take a glimpse into what is defining the future of staffing, please take a look at www.360WorkForce.com. Not only is it aggressively re-defining how we staff our companies, it is upping the game in efficiency and effectiveness. It has demonstrated filling higher-level management positions for a large retail chain with best in class metrics: 75% success rate on candidates submitted for in-house interviews and time-to-fill at <45 days.
This is available now – bringing the future to you…today.
