How to save money on recruitment
Martin TrippResearch from the Recruitment and Employment Confederation suggests 42% of employers have raised their levels of pay in order to secure difficult-to-attract staff.
What makes staff difficult-to-attract varies from company to company; but usually it is because the skill set needed is in high demand but low supply (HDLS); because of location issues; or because the company or its sector is simply ‘not sexy’.
These are all valid reasons why your company may struggle to attract the best people. But poor recruitment practices are a much bigger issue.
