How Using a Recruitment Agency Reduces Hiring Risks for Employers** Hiring new staff can be a daunting process, filled with uncertainties. Here's how partnering with a recruitment agency can mitigate these risks: 1. **Expert Screening**: Agencies specialise in identifying top talent, ensuring candidates are thoroughly vetted and qualified, reducing the risk of a bad hire. 2. **Access to Passive Candidates**: With extensive networks, agencies reach passive job seekers who aren’t actively applying but may be perfect fits, expanding your talent pool. 3. **Market Insights**: Agencies provide valuable market data, helping you make informed decisions on salaries and benefits, aligning your offers with industry standards to attract the best candidates. 4. **Time Efficiency**: By handling the initial stages of recruitment, agencies save you time and resources, allowing you to focus on core business activities. 5. **Replacement Guarantees**: Many agencies offer a replacement guarantee if a candidate leaves within a certain period, ensuring you don’t bear the full cost of an unexpected turnover. Partner with a recruitment agency to streamline your hiring process and build a stronger, more reliable team. #Recruitment #Hiring #HR #BusinessGrowth #TalentAcquisition #warehouse #industrial #logistics #engineering #office #md #managers #operation

What do a Recruiter, a Car Salesperson, and Estate Agent have in common? The good ones are good, and the bad ones ruin it for the rest of us. We all get a bad reputation. But, why use a recruiter? As the world’s largest family-run recruitment company Reed, and other recruitment agencies, play a pivotal role in streamlining the hiring process, offering comprehensive services tailored to the needs of both employers and jobseekers. Below is some information why it's good to work with a recruiter, either as a business or a candidate. Its not all about cost. For me it's offering a supportive, professional and personal relationship. It's about knowing the market, the opportunities and giving you the options to make an informed decision when speaking to a specialist. For an informal chat, reach out directly to see how we tailor our services. #whyusearecruiter #reed #reedsouthampton #reedportsmouth #reedwinchester #finance #accounting #carsales #estateagent #avoidcowboys https://lnkd.in/eErQZprw

Cloudcat Recruitment's series on common mistakes made by SDRs continues. Every mistake listed is one to keep in mind, as they have been suggest by highly successful SDRs and Sales Leaders who I have spoken to over the last few years. Using AI is great, and mastering its usage makes you extremely efficient. The majority of my network is involved in selling or utilising artificial intelligence! But using it blindly is akin to trying to sell to a prospect in a monotonous, under-researched and dry tone. Over-use and brazen use of AI messaging can come across as lazy, unoriginal and most importantly: It does not signify that the seller is a solution-led individual, who wishes to solve a problem. #SDR #salesdevelopmentrepresentative #artificialintelligence

B2B sales = where the progression and reward is as a salesperson If you’re serious about your sales career then you’ll need this experience. Particularly if you want to break into tech sales. If you have any cold outreach, prospecting or outbound calling on your CV from a B2B environment then use it. That’s transferable. And if you don’t, then it might be worth considering other B2B sales roles as a stepping stone. Sometimes it’s better to earn and learn. Rather than wait for the perfect opportunity. #salesjobs #jobhunting #salescareer

'Can we talk about the economic state of UK staffing right now?' This UK recruitment downturn looks set to last 📉 "Net income fee is down YoY 14% Robert Walters, 15% Hays and 16.7% Page Group. Forecasts have been declining all year. Share prices have been heading broadly south since the post-Covid-19 hiring bulge." If costs stays the same, profit drops. Which could mean big redundancies in the market. You need a lower cost of carry whilst driving revenue. 💷 Instead of periods of large hiring and firing companies should seek to improve efficiency. Companies should look at strategies to improve data 📊 Better data can improve search results, which can reduce time to hire and job advertising spend. It can improve marketing and new business efforts as well as ability to leverage third parties and AI to drive more revenue. Finally, it's important for effective reporting and analytics. Which can lead to improved decision making and scalable growth. To improve data you need the right CRM, user adoption strategy and validation processes. You need it to be tailored to your service offerings and verticals. You need it to reinforce your proven processes that make your business successful. How are you improving your data?

Recruiters – phase progression is essential for cold calling mastery. Because each phase of your call should be designed to get you to the next phase. Where the call is broken down into mini objectives (aligned with each phase.) So although your primary objective may be to book a follow up meeting. Your first objective is actually to make a good enough first impression that the prospect gives you 30 seconds of their time. And once you’re “earned” those 30 seconds, your next objective is to pique their interest enough to earn another 60 seconds. Leading to your next mini objective: to earn 3 minutes (where the call becomes an actual conversation.) Which is when you have a strong likelihood of being able to achieve your primary objective: booking that follow up meeting. So start thinking about your cold call in the form of phase progression. And align your talk tracks super tightly to each mini objective. Meaning it becomes really easy to identify where your calls are falling down. Enabling you to zero in on your biggest leverage points. Which ensures continuous improvement (and eventual cold calling mastery.)
