2010

The recruitment landscape has changed forever. Like so many business sectors it has evolved to address the local and global challenges facing the industry but what has emerged is a stronger and much fitter model which is benefiting from innovative technology to deliver the results organisations now demand. And this is quite simply finding the best person for the job as cost effectively as possible.

Unprecedented job applications for dwindling opportunities have become a common story in current times. North Yorkshire Police, for example, recently advertised 60 positions and received over 200,000 enquiries, crashing the phone line & causing a logistical nightmare.

It has been a year of economic uncertainty for many organisations. It has forced recruiters to examine their recruitment processes and question how they can reduce costs but still recruit a high calibre of candidate.
