Employee Resourcing Assignment (Human Resourcing Management)

Order Description

Employee Resourcing Assignment (Human Resourcing Management)
Recruitment agencies are outside firms who go and find suitable candidates for employers. A recruitment agency acts as an intermediary between an organization that is looking to employ someone and an individual who is looking for a job. Employers need the right people, but often they don’t have the time or expertise to go and find the possible candidate themselves, that is why employers use recruitment agencies.
According to the CIPD’s 2008 Recruitment, retention and turnover survey, 78% of employers in 2007 used recruitment agencies to attract and recruit employees. Historically the relationship between employers and recruitment agencies have been marred by a range of pressures and degrees of mistrust from both sides. Today businesses are seeing a shift towards the desire for a ‘partnership’ relationship between employers and recruitment agencies to build and maintain productive relationships.
