Three tips for selecting the right flat fee recruitment provider
Looking at cutting your recruitment costs by using a flat fee model? This option can provide many advantages. But to benefit from these, keep three tips in mind:
1. Check their reach:
How broad is your potential provider’s recruitment reach? How many different channels do they actually use to advertise your vacancy? Checking their reach will reveal whether you’ll attract the best of all the available candidates, both those who are looking - and those who aren’t.
2. Ask about expertise:
Are they as up to date with recruitment as they are with recruitment technology? Is their approach conventional or more cutting edge? Assessing their level of expertise will help bring in the right new recruit.
3. Get personal:
Look at how much your potential flat fee provider wants to get to know you and your goals. Do they take the time to get to know you? This is good commercial sense, not just good customer service. Choose a provider who asks you detailed and high quality questions and you’re much more likely to enjoy a high quality response when you’re advertising a vacancy.

How To Recruit On A Budget In 2012
Two steps to reducing the cost of recruitment in 2012
Are you looking to reduce the cost of recruitment in 2012? You’re not alone. Many recruiters are seeking to cut the costs of hiring in the year ahead.

Think hybrid to help cut the cost of recruitment in the year ahead. Adopting a hybrid model - combining in-house resource with professional external expertise - reduces the pressure on your recruitment model by giving you increased flexibility while allowing you to maintain a consistent standard of quality

You might think you know what your recruitment costs are. But did you know that there are a number of key recruitment costs hidden away in your hiring pipeline? They include:
- Continuous drain on resource: Is your recruitment funnel actually costing you money?
- Continuous drain on time: A significant recruitment cost is the constant drain on time which leads to a major drain on financial resources.
- Staff attrition: This is major long-term drain on a recruiter and their entire organisation.
- Missing talent: When an organisation is missing core talent or losing it on a regular basis, it’s a sure sign that its recruitment funnel is missing some essential aspects

- Merges the low cost of automated client vacancy placements
- Uses multi channel approaches to reach and attract candidates
- Charges just one flat fee for each vacancy
- Offers up to 74% reduction in recruitment costs and up to a 90% reduction in the time spent hiring new employees
