Structuring and Organising Recruitment

Recruitment is, without a doubt, one of the most challenging operations for an organization, even in this current, hyperconnected landscape. Regardless of where or how a business is established, the people within it make all the difference. This is why Jens Nador, a longstanding recruitment-as-a-service professional, confidently says, “It does not matter if a company is large or small, the management is always looking to hire candidates with the right experience and desirable social skills.” However, finding such individuals remains to be an incredibly laborious task. A surprising number of organizations across the globe lack the necessary experience to conduct and manage successful hiring drives. This necessitates the services of recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) companies to help identify, attract, and retain talented individuals.

Nevertheless, the sheer irony of the matter lies within the high turnover rates of recruitment professionals themselves. According to a study carried out by Siemens and The Stroke Association, recruiters experience stress levels that exceed those of teachers, bankers, and lawyers. After all, it is a people-based job, and if there is one thing that changes as often and rapidly as clouds on a windy day, it is people. Recruitment thus needs to be viewed more carefully through a different lens, one that studies the art of proper assessment and examination of new candidates for any given role. While many RPOs worldwide are coming up with innovative and technologically-charged solutions to address their recruitment and retention challenges, there is one company that stands a cut above the rest with its incredible intuition and gusto for solving any hiring impediments: TempSearch.

Mitigating the Lack of Professionalism in Recruitment

Founded over a decade ago, Jens Nador’s lead recruiter, TempSearch strives to effectuate intelligent decision making processes for businesses mainly RPOs to improve the attraction, selection, and retention of ideal and promising candidates. “We help companies organize and better structure their recruitment in a strategized and professional manner,” expresses Jens Nador.

In the case of small-medium businesses (SMB) with a strength of maybe 30 to 50 employees, many may not have invested in in-house recruitment professionals. The responsibility of hiring new talent then typically falls on the shoulders of a general manager or the business owner. Not every GM or entrepreneur may be skilled at gauging and assessing potential new employees. They also may not possess the necessary HR experience to find and recruit qualified individuals in the first place. And this, in the eyes of Jens Nador, is the lacking professionalism within most enterprises that leads to pitfalls in their recruitment and employee management operations. “The biggest challenge is to be professional; to know and understand exactly what you are doing,” he adds.

TempSearch focuses on completely circumventing such predicaments through its specialization in the field of recruitment with a holistic approach towards bringing more structure and stability for RPOs and other HR representatives across Europe.

The company, especially in today’s digitalized milieu, has taken every measure to adopt and implement the latest technologies, innovate new methodologies, and leverage all channels to find the best of the best; and the experts at TempSearch often get very creative with what they consider a medium as well. For instance, a client seeking new hires reached out to TempSearch and Jens Nador’s team; they soon learned that many of the existing employees were football fans who frequented sports clubs in the area. A new channel was found: through the collaboration, the company displayed job descriptions for the client’s opening in various clubs to attract like-minded people and offer them a new job and a welcoming, comfortable working environment.

The Four Building Blocks of Recruiting Excellence

TempSearch, over a period of ten years, grew to be incredibly successful in this field due to its talented staff members and four distinct building blocks. Each recruiter within the company is well-equipped with several years of experience as recruiting technical specialists and management personnel. Consequently, this has empowered TempSearch to aid customers with mission-critical independent advice, streamlined implementation of various recruitment processes, onsite assistance, and unparalleled support in actively recruiting employees.

The four building blocks, as mentioned above, are critical for setting up a successful RPO in today’s economic climate and digitalized landscape. The first revolves around maintaining a sound and constantly growing knowledge of IT; possessing strong technical expertise in the modern era makes or breaks a company. The second block consists of truly understanding start of the art recruitment. One must employ all conventional recruitment channels while seeking the unconventional. Jens Nador believes a recruitment professional ought to study how each channel works, tabulate its associated costs and utilize them to meet each client’s unique requests. The third reflects the importance of being organized during the operational process to be bending at every step of the way with the customer, hiring manager, managing director, and the applicants. This is of utmost importance because, for TempSearch, recruitment is the foundation of employer branding. Lastly, having a certain level of charm and people skills helps both the applicants and the employers create a good rapport faster, leading to highly desirable and properly communicated outcomes.

Leaving No Stone Unturned

To further elucidate on TempSearch’s capabilities, Jens Nador shares the successful client story of a U.S. company that wanted to grow and build a business unit in Germany. The firm had too little information about its initial ideas and the final product. Therefore, the client was required to build and complete new business units and needed urgent assistance. After onboarding this U.S.- based organization, TempSearch found an HR business partner well versed in German law and internal organization management. Subsequently, the company made use of every channel they could, including multi posting tools, performance management systems, active sourcing, and the many social media outlets accessible at the time. Jens Nador and his team could generate a slew of potential, highly qualified new candidates for the client within a brief timeframe. TempSearch is credited with much of this particular firm’s success in its respective marketplace as it met each demand perfectly, in an extremely organized and transparent manner. “It is very necessary to give clients the feeling and confidence that their business is in good hands,” adds the lead recruiter.

Always Up for a Challenge

TempSearch is currently focused on developing new, more innovative recruitment practices for RPOs as it looks to expand throughout Europe. The company also plans to open a new business unit in Switzerland, where Jens Nador believes TempSearch would greatly benefit potential clients. With its automotive business customers positioned in Eastern Europe, the company expects to upscale its operations and cater to their ever-evolving and fast-growing recruitment demands. “We want to work with bigger companies to take our RPO services international. The team is looking forward to this as well because, at TempSearch, recruitment is not boring. It is always an uphill battle, but we love the challenge,” concludes Jens Nador on a positive note.
