Recruitment Advice

During the current economic climate most businesses are looking at ways to save money but are still wanting to fill roles in their business. The need for competent staff is more important than ever with customers evaluating what they need to save money on. If you can provide high customer service your clients will still want to use your business’ services.

Internal recruitment is an effective way of looking at your business and deciding on what jobs need to be done and who internally can fill them.

The advantages of recruiting internally are:

• When internal staff are promoted into a role through internal recruitment methods it acts as a incentive to other staff members, as they can see a path of progression in the organisation and it acts as a morale and production boost

• The cost of recruiting a new staff member can be expensive so recruiting internally is cost saving

• The cost of inducting a new staff member into the business can also be expensive, internal recruitment will save on training and development cost as the employee already knows the business and processes.

• Recruiting internal staff saves time on completing person specifications, vetting C.V’s and interviewing candidates
