Recruitment Process Outsourcing

Virtual Talent Acquisition Services:
Recruitment Process Outsourcing

The best way to lose out on great candidates is to delay a timely and sincere show of interest in their qualifications and potential within your company.  

Suppose your company finds it challenging to dedicate daily focused time to communicate with your candidates and struggle to efficiently move them through your hiring process. In that case, you could benefit from Discovery Talent Strategies. Our virtual recruitment process outsourcing services provide companies with an outside resource to execute one or all stages of the recruitment process. For example, maybe your company is small, and your staffing budget doesn’t allow for a full-time team member to conduct and manage the recruitment process.

Perhaps you have a short-term recruiting need that requires additional help. Or maybe you’ve lost a recruiting team member and need us to fill in a gap while hiring a new permanent hire to fill the role. Our team will virtually step-in to either fulfill a specific function or take on your entire recruitment process. Whether you are looking for long-term, temporary, or intermittent assistance, we will serve as a virtual extension of your team. 

How does Recruitment Process Outsourcing Work?

We manage job postings and your applicant tracking system, review incoming applicants, communicate with candidates, perform sourcing on your behalf, and hold initial screening calls with candidates.

You can rely on us to virtually manage the recruitment process and provide lightning-speed communication to your candidates, either swiftly moving them to the following steps or gently letting them know they won’t be moving forward.

Each candidate is treated with respect while ensuring that your company runs an efficient process that results in quality hires and a positive candidate experience. This balance can set your company apart in the talent market, showing that you value all applicants and will treat them with dignity regardless of whether you hire them or not.

  1. We have an initial meeting to walk through your current process and the team members involved and introduce us to any software or recruiting systems you are using.

  2. We swiftly transition the process to our team, whether we take on the entire process or just a step or two, such as sourcing and screening.

  3. We provide frequent updates and seek feedback from your team to ensure we are running the process most efficiently and effectively.

  4. You save time, have peace of mind regarding your recruitment process, and have a reliable partner in Discovery Talent Strategies.

Common Questions in Recruitment Process Outsourcing

  • Speedy communication is important for any candidate, whether they apply for a job on a company website (active candidate) or are proactively sourced by a company like Discovery Talent Strategies. But for different reasons. Most candidates who are actively applying to jobs are applying to multiple positions and if someone else contacts them first, you may lose out on the opportunity to interview them for your open role, potentially missing out on a great opportunity just because you were not fast enough to respond. Speedy communication with sourced candidates is important because you reached out to them. Being quick to respond shows them you are interested and increases the likelihood that you will be able to engage them in the next steps of the process.

  • Every applicant is a potential customer, referral source, and promoter of your business. Having a great reputation as an employer can impact a company’s overall success, and that goes both ways. A candidate sharing a poor interview experience with others could deter their friends and family from applying in the future. But more importantly, communicating with candidates who aren’t moving to the next steps in your process is just the right thing to do. Sadly, most companies do not take the time, citing time and resources as a reason why they just can’t commit. It is a simple, yet impactful act to close the loop with each and every candidate, and one that should not be underestimated. In general, your company will receive more praise than fury from the applicant that you turn down, which results in the opportunity for more positive feedback regarding your company and the hiring practices.
