Cheryl McCormack recognises that organisations need a recruitment partner with in-depth knowledge in the art of recruitment combined with access to state of the art technology.
Making the decision to engage the services of an ‘Expert Recruiter’ is difficult enough, selecting which one to engage can be a minefield!
In response to this dilemma, organisations sometimes resort to listing their vacancy with multiple agencies, avoiding making a commitment and thinking it will provide them with a wider selection of talent from which to select.
Sadly, nothing could be more removed from the truth!
Here’s just a few reasons why it’s a ‘no win’ game to multi-list your vacancy!
- When a recruiter understands that they may not get a fee for work completed they automatically move down a few notches in the time and effort they will invest – wouldn’t you?
- What they will do is a sprint!
- They know that they need to be one of the first, if not the first across the line in their candidate presentation to you – so they rush
- What usually characterises ‘rushing‘?
- haste – and we all know that means waste & it’ll likely be your time that gets wasted!
- cutting corners – this can mean all manner of nasties that could come back to bite your organisation including but not limited to;
- not gaining the candidate’s permission before submitting their CV to you
- not properly discussing the role at all with the candidates
- not checking the skills are a match
- not checking it is pitched correctly remuneration wise
- taking no notice of distance to the organisation travel wise
- not carrying out due diligence ie – previous employment reference checks, verifying qualifications
- Two or more agencies cross the finish line at the same time with the same candidates and arguments ensue, this doesn’t do much for your organisation’s image
- Because you have effectively set a race in motion, you are likely to receive too many CV’s which you then have to spend time working through otherwise, if you agree to meet them all you are likely to be wasting even more of your valuable time…got the picture?
- Oh, and only one recruiter gets paid for their work – who else do you know works for nought??
It is just not the way to go for anyone – you, the candidate or the recruiters!
