The secret to a successful interview is to ask the right questions. Getting this right requires a great deal of planning, plus conversations with stakeholders to determine what you need to learn about each candidate.

When discussing the recruitment process, we often focus on the employee experience. Is it easy to apply? How do you communicate with candidates? How good is the onboarding process?

Is it necessary for candidates to complete an employment application form when applying for your open position? While most HR professionals and employment lawyers would unequivocally answer "YES," there are employers and industries that do not require applicants to fill out an employment application during the interview or new hire process.

A surprising number of hiring managers still rely on a reactive recruitment strategy. They wait until a vacancy opens up, and then they put a HELP WANTED sign in the window – or they do the digital equivalent, which is placing an ad on a job board.

Social belonging is a fundamental human need, hard-wired into our DNA. And yet, 40% of people feel so isolated at work that it impacts their commitment and engagement.

The recruitment market is more daunting than ever right now. Around 80% of hiring managers say that they can’t find skilled applicants, which means that there’s an intense feeding frenzy whenever a new candidate starts applying for jobs. Small wonder then that so many companies are turning to RPO, or Recruitment Processing Outsourcing.
