Coming Up: Improving Recruiter Capabilities in 2010!

We’re kicking off our 2010 work on improving recruiter capabilities here at the Roundtable, and excitement is in the air. Most Recruiting executives are focused on streamlining recruiting systems, structures, and processes, but our data shows that improving recruiter capabilities is more than three times as effective at increasing quality and reducing time to fill. There is huge opportunity here to make improvements.

As you prepare for 2010 initiatives—including things like employment branding, workforce planning, diversity recruiting, and even the possible increase in hiring volumes—consider what kinds of simple assessment and development activities your recruiters will need to get the job done in an efficient budgeting environment.

Members, plan to participate in our 2010 research on improving recruiter capabilities. You may hear from us soon!
