Recruitment Research Methodology

Hiring the right people can be the difference between transformation success and failure

Identify and engage people who have successfully done the jobs you're hiring for

The mandate recruiters hear most often is “Find people who have successfully done what the person in this role is supposed to do”.

The traditional talent acquisition approach to this mandate is:

Cast a wide net through advertising
Search job board
Search LinkedIn
Search an internal database
Work through referrals
Engage a temporary agency
Outsource to a 3rd party

The result often is unfilled jobs, impacting the business, and extending your transformation timeline.

What Happens When The Typical Approach Isn’t Working?

When searching for talent experienced in emerging technologies, finding the right talent can be time-consuming. When recruiters aren’t finding the talent needed, the traditional methodology dictates doing more of the same.

Open jobs may languish for months while recruiters continue to search. Multiply this challenge by a portfolio of open opportunities and add the fixed timetable of your transformation and this problem becomes acute. Cost-effective solutions for the entire portfolio of open roles are in short supply.

Additional Challenges We Solve

Finding and engaging the right talent is the primary challenge, but there are many secondary challenges and they vary by department.

IT leadership may need to keep their hiring cadence consistent with their roadmap, reduce overall spend or decrease reliance on consultants.
HRBPs may seek to simplify the talent acquisition process or improve D&I hiring results.
Corporate recruiting may wish to improve recruiting metrics, save time, or provide additional insights to leadership for better decision making.

All of these challenges are addressed through recruiting research for the teams we serve.
