Time to bring in the BIG guns!

the big guns

It’s time to bring in the BIG guns, the EXPERTS!

 

A bold statement, I know. Let me just clarify why you should seriously be considering utilising the expertise of a recruitment supplier;

 

The Employer Market Now

  • Unemployment is at 4.9%, the lowest in 10 years!!
  • 53% of NSW businesses** are actively recruiting. Demand is outweighing active job seekers
  • 60% of hiring businesses in the June quarter reported they cannot find staff
  • One in four reported businesses intend to hire more workers within the next three month
Unemployment rate decreasing and business confidence increasing is driving the demand for staff. The need for employment experts, talent specialists, recruitment agencies is on the rise. The shortages in the total labour force will continue to influence the demand for recruitment industry services and will contribute to further growth.
 
 
The Job Seeker Market Now
The activity of people looking to change jobs is at an all time low but for those who are job seeking, we are hearing they are looking for much more:
 
  • Commercial Viability
  • Security
  • Professional Development
  • Flexibility
  • Remuneration

Job Seekers are aware of the market and an Employer’s Value Proposition is more important than ever – Potential new hires will have choice, lots of choice! They will be considering multiple options and it won’t all be just about the salary on offer!!

 

The Employment Market Now

  • 71% of Directors who recruit say they have had most success using Recruitment service expertise in their industry
  • 60% of job seekers find their new opportunity through networking. They’re not relying on job-boards they’re engaging with larger networks they are wanting more exposure
  • Understands the person behind the CV. Scarily, 75% of direct application resumes are rejected before they even reach the Hiring Manger. For employers finding time to uncover what is behind the CV is a stretch but it is an employment expert key skill.
  • Utilise their REACH via their networks and connections. These networks consist of active and passive job seekers. Access to the “passive” job seeker is paramount in this candidate short climate
  • Promoting employer brand, in line with key drivers, improving job seeker attraction
The 2021 employment landscape is nothing short of problematic given the current state of the Sydney lockdown and the continuing shortage of talent. The repercussions of this climate are being felt across the board.
 
The advice is;
Bring in the BIG GUNS (experts)!
 
REACH OUT and tap into mme’s expertise and networks, across an array of industry talent.
