Recruitment Marketing

Recruitment Marketing

• Recruitment marketing is the process of building an organization's employer brand to attract top

talent.

• Because a strong employer brand can play a significant role in convincing a job candidate,

human resource management (HRM) departments have increased marketing efforts to compete

for candidates with scarce skills. Examples of recruitment marketing initiatives include

employment videos, search engine optimized career sites and social media job advertising. There

are also several technology platforms that can help HR managers get started with recruitment

marketing. Vendors include SAP-SuccessFactors, SmashFly Technologies, Jibe and Jobvite.

Recruitment in a Nutshell

THE ROLE OF A RECRUITMENT CONSULTANT IS MORE CLOSELY ALIGNED WITH SALES THAN HR, AS RECRUITMENT

CONSULTANTS SELL OUR SERVICES TO CLIENTS TO SECURE THEIR VACANCIES TO RECRUIT FOR. WE THEN SEEK THE

RIGHT CANDIDATES TO FILL THOSE VACANCIES, USING A COMBINATION OF ADVERTISING, HEAD-HUNTING AND

SELECTION AMONGST OTHER ACTIVITIES. A LOT OF THIS CAN BE PHONE-BASED, ALTHOUGH WE DO MEET CLIENTS AND

CANDIDATES ACROSS ALL OUR MARKETS AS WELL. THE RECRUITMENT LIFECYCLE COVERS EVERYTHING FROM

UNDERSTANDING WHAT THE CLIENT WANTS TO SOURCING THE RIGHT CANDIDATE TO NEGOTIATING THE JOB

OFFER. THIS REQUIRES THE ABILITY TO MULTI-TASK, AS OUR CONSULTANTS HANDLE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT

CANDIDATES AND VACANCIES AT ANY ONE TIME.

RECRUITMENT COMPANIES ARE USUALLY HEAVILY FOCUSED ON PERFORMANCE AND WE’RE NO EXCEPTION. THIS

MEANS THAT ALL OF OUR CONSULTANTS WORK ON TARGETS AND A COMMISSION STRUCTURE THAT REWARDS GOOD

PERFORMANCE. THIS OFFERS EXCITING CAREER OPPORTUNITIES AND ALSO REWARDS OUR STAFF FOR PROVIDING

THE BEST SERVICE TO OUR CLIENTS. THE CULTURE IS RESULT-DRIVEN & FAST-PACED.
