What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing?

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a contractual relationship between the Company and the Consultant, defined by the requirements, values, business goal and processes of the Company. Essentially, the RPO provider functions as the recruitment department of the Company, with the advantage of voluminous industry data and tools for mining the data to the Company’s advantage.

RPO has the following benefits:

Cost Reduction: A Consultant specialized in recruiting saves the Company’s resources that may be required for the recruitment activity in-house.

Time Saving: Since the primary business of a Recruitment Consultant is recruiting, mobilization takes minimum time. Also, as recruitment processes are being repeatedly practiced, the Company stands to benefit from the reduced turn-around time.

Competitive Advantage: Consultants are better equipped to benchmark roles and responsibilities, enabling the Company to compete better with leading companies.
