What is a Recruiting Specialist?

A recruitment specialist is an HR professional who can quickly and efficiently keep up with all things “hiring”. They are familiar with the latest trends in their field, as well as how to attract and retain top talent.

The HR team employs recruiting specialists. A recruiting agency, or an organization that has a lot of recruitment needs may have its own department. They are familiar with the business’s HR structure and have expertise in their particular role.

What does a Recruiting Specialist do?

Organizations can rely on recruitment specialists to find the right candidate for their job. They help organizations fill vacancies by interviewing potential candidates and researching contacts.

The responsibilities of a recruitment specialist can vary depending on the industry they work in and their organization. For example, college recruitment specialists may be able to travel to universities in order for them to hire for entry-level positions. A recruitment agency might have a focus on one industry. This allows them to interact with many companies and learn about multiple organizational structures.

No matter what industry you work in, there will always be some tasks that are the same regardless of where you work.

• Identify and Research Candidates: Recruitment experts monitor vacancies in an organization and help to fill them by identifying industry-relevant employees. To find talent, they use software such as Indeed and LinkedIn. They are constantly aware of the top talent in their field and any available vacancies.

• Conduct Interview Screenings: The recruitment specialist is often the first contact between an organization’s hiring manager and a potential employee. They are able to communicate the company’s needs and have a good understanding of the requirements for each job. They usually conduct a screening interview with candidates and ask crucial questions to assess their suitability for the job. The screening interview is followed by recommendations to the hiring manager.

• Manage Job Listings: Recruitment experts manage job listings and monitor applications via job boards or websites. They are able to communicate effectively and have a good understanding of each job’s requirements.

• Manage Recruitment Activities. Some recruitment specialists might need to organize campus recruitment events and job fairs. These events are often very effective because they allow for interview screenings to be conducted simultaneously, face-to–face.

It is a great way to spread your message by posting all available positions, sharing open opportunities at business conferences, and discussing growth strategies with other company members.

Finding qualified job candidates is a difficult skill that employers can’t afford to ignore without jeopardizing their company’s growth and survival.

Employers: The Benefits of using a Recruitment Agency

Although recruitment agencies have been around for a long time, job seekers are often unaware of the benefits they can have on their career. Employers may also choose to manage the hiring process and appointments themselves, possibly because they aren’t fully aware of the benefits of using an agency.

What are the benefits to employers of using a recruitment agency?

1. Recruitment agencies help you fill vacancies quickly When looking for suitable candidates to fill vacancies in their company, employers will approach a recruiter. It can be difficult and time-consuming to find suitable candidates on your own. Although there are hundreds of candidates on online recruitment sites like Indeed, Careers24 and LinkedIn, you may not have access to all of them. You might have to filter through many applicants in order to find the right candidates to interview. The vast talent pool of potential candidates that recruitment agencies have access to allows them to create a shortlist according the your job requirements. You only need to interview the candidates and then choose your new employee.

2. Your client is the agency’s main priority Although the agency makes great efforts to help candidates create a resume or CV, you will still be their client. They are only there to help you find the right candidate for your job. The agency has appointed an account manager to manage all vacant positions. They get to know your company and what you are interested in. This relationship can help you increase the quality and speed of the candidates that you hire over time.

3. Agencies provide expert legal advice The Employment Equity Act (EEA), and the Basic Conditions of Employment Act(BCEA) require that all recruitment procedures meet certain standards. These laws, along with many other considerations, require that the entire process is free from direct and indirect discrimination. It can be time-consuming and difficult to navigate these laws while you are recruiting. You don’t have to worry about legal reprisal if you get expert advice from a recruitment agency.

4. When negotiating remuneration, agencies can be a positive help A recruitment agency can provide valuable market intelligence regarding the market and the benefits offered to qualified personnel. They can act as an intermediary during the process of negotiating the remuneration package. This allows both the parties involved in the negotiation to openly discuss their concerns and/or considers. This will often help them to overcome any sticking points.

5. Successful employment is a prerequisite for lowering costs Most agencies work only by appointment. The agency would be paid a predetermined percentage from the annual remuneration package of the candidates. The percentage payable to the agency is reduced if a candidate hired is not appointed permanently after the probation period. This is a huge reason why your account manager is interested in finding the best candidates for the job. For more senior placement projects, some agencies may require a retainer or an upfront administration fee. This is not a problem for companies with high turnover rates or international workers that require rapid growth.

While we understand the importance of hiring the best employees, we also recognize that there are often fewer job seekers than the best.
