It’s time for a change. Redundancies have become the norm in 2023. The recruiting industry has been hit particularly hard by this norm and talented recruiters continue to be left idle. While this is an awful situation for so many; does it signify a time for change within the industry? Is there a more cost effective way for companies to hire? Enter the “no strings attached” recruitment concept.

When you need to ramp up; hire, educate, strategise and build a hiring culture, you bring in a recruiter. This person is ingrained in your organisation and operates in a Talent Acquisition capacity. When the job is done, you scale down and cease the partnership until next time. The added benefit being; you now have a healthy hiring culture, trained internal hiring champions and the ability to hire the right person for your business. This is the HireWise.ie model.

This sounds like contracting, whats the difference? Well there are a couple; 

– Ongoing support, even in the scale down periods. If you hit blocker or just need some guidance, a Hiring Expert is available to navigate the situation with you.

– During scale down periods, we may not be onsite or meeting as regularly, but we are 100% available to support. Our partnership never “really” ends 😉

– The cost is much more favourable. No equipment, no hiring tools, no benefits package. No risk. Just 100% Talent Acquisition excellence.

The concept of “no strings attached” recruitment is simple. When you’re hiring or ramping up, you bring in a recruiter. From HireWise of course 🙂 This is your Talent Acquisition partner; implementing your processes, getting hiring teams aligned, sourcing, interviewing and hiring your open job requirements. If a training need is identified, your Hiring Expert delivers the relevant workshops to up-skill your team. The Hiring Expert stays with you and works with your stakeholders until the job is done. This is your end to end Talent Acquisition partner. You benefit by learning how to hire effectively, hiring the right people for your business and creating a healthy hiring culture going forward.

Scale down:

When the job is done and you’re satisfied with your org structure, you scale down. No full time labor cost, no redundancy cost, no idle recruiters. At this point, you can either work with your Hiring Expert on other objectives like onboarding or retention or you can conclude the partnership until you need support again down the line. Just remember, your partnership with HireWise.ie does not end here. If you need guidance or a quick piece of advice to get over a hump, we are always available.

What happens next? 

Naturally you will need to hire again, whether it’s for growth or to backfill attrition. At this point, you will be better equipped to achieve your hiring needs having already rolled out the HireWise hiring process. You might be rusty and need a refresher course or you might just want the recruitment support. HireWise will be available to take up the partnership from where it left off.

Whatever your situation is, the beauty of this approach is there are no strings attached from your side. No extra costs of tax, payroll, benefits and hiring tools that come with full time in house recruitment. Sounds like a win win!
