How did it all start?
How do I structure
my Talent Acquisition Department?
Hold your horses, cowboy!
Let’s start with the right question:
why should you hire me in the first place?
Easy-peasy:
-
I have trained more than 15 sourcing teams on site around Europe
-
I have helped 4 companies set up their internal sourcing teams
In fact, I have even spent a whole year at Philip Morris International helping them set up their entire business model around sourcing. Together, we set up new ways of working in a global agile and scalable structure with embedded escalation processes. The structure setup at PMI is recognised today as one of the most advanced sourcing models in the world to date.
How’s that for street creds?
Why should you have sourcers inside your company?
Yup, that’s a second question worth asking before we move on.
Short answer: because then you will have your recruiting department on steroids
Time spent hiring will go down: your team will find targets faster and zero in with matching speed.
External recruitment costs will fall drastically: you won’t need those external agencies any more.
Your market knowledge will increase: you will know who’s who and who’s doing what and how open they are to working for you.
The quality of new hires will go up: you will know who you hire and they will know who you are – that’s a recipe for better matching.
Diversity will increase: your recruitment pool will become an ocean full of brightly coloured fish, so you will have all the diversity you need.
Your employer brand will flourish: because that’s what will help you choose the best of the best for your company.
Retention will be a breeze: the people will come because it’s you. So they will stay for the same reasons!
