VALUABLE STEPS FOR A SUPERIOR RPO IMPLEMENTATION

Recruitment process outsourcing can be critical in helping businesses fulfill their recruitment needs. If you’re looking for a solution to finding quality temporary or permanent staff, you should consider engaging an RPO provider to help you source and hire candidates that match your company’s values and needs. Implementing a whole RPO process is critical for success and The Principle Group can help you achieve your recruitment needs. Here are 5 important steps for an exceptional RPO implementation:

Step 1: Pre-Planning

You and your RPO provider will need to work together to figure out your organization’s existing hiring resources and constraints at the pre-planning step. Businesses need to express to their RPO partners their expectations of the partnership. An excellent way to do this is to create a list of must- haves, nice-to-haves, and things you don’t need.

For a successful talent acquisition solution implementation, you’ll need active executive participation. Having active involvement from the beginning supports change management with hiring managers who’re set in their ways when it comes to recruiting personnel. It is also crucial to acknowledge the limitations of your existing hiring processes.

Step 2: Discovery

You and your RPO provider will need to map out the process needed for your talent acquisition solution based on the pre-planning discussion. Your RPO partner will use the information from the pre-planning step to shape your RPO model design elements.

You should discuss time-frames and project types with your provider during discovery. Some project types last two to three months, others maybe a year, two years, or never-ending. Whether you need 300 hires in three months or 12 months, The Principle Group has the perfect RPO solution for all your needs.

Step 3: Design the RPO Model

Once you have completed the pre-planning and discovery steps, your RPO provider will start designing the RPO solution that best fits your organization’s hiring needs. Your RPO model can be customized to your needs to meet where you’re at as an organization. Your RPO provider will design the model with efficiency and scalability in mind.

You should also ensure your RPO partner tests all the technologies and processes. During this testing period, there’s no recruiting going on, but your RPO partner is doing things in the background to make sure your hiring process is ready on its go-live date.

Step 4: Go Live

Going live is the most anticipated step as this is when you and your RPO partner activate all the technologies and processes to recruit qualified individuals. You shouldn’t expect immediate results as true success often comes about 30 days after the talent acquisition solution goes live as it takes time to recruit, get the interviews set up, and get the interviews flowing and going, especially for the first couple of rounds. Once the process is in full flow, you will observe impressive results.

Step 5: Post Activation

Post-activation is a critical step because it ends the RPO implementation and begins cultivating the RPO partnership. Most RPO partnerships include monthly calls with the primary stakeholders, quarterly business reviews, and annual strategy meetings. The Principle Group will also provide you with a report of how the program is going. Your RPO partner can also quickly pivot to unexpected changes in the market or scope of work without disrupting the relationship.

People are an essential element in every RPO partnership. The right RPO company will take the time and resources to build trust and relationships with you. As a result, they’ll help you create a successful talent acquisition operation that delivers strong results over a long period.
