When we look at how the Charities and Not-for-Profit sector is succeeding with talent attraction, the Sourcing Quadrant paints an interesting picture. Having a great careers site is one of the ways that is working to attract a larger pool of high-quality candidates. Other channels like Specialist Job Boards, Employee Referrals and ATS/CRM are also delivering on both quantity and quality of candidates. Agencies continue to deliver a good balance of candidates for this sector. However, this comes with increased costs to the sector.
