FAQs
A talent solutions company helps organisations ensure they have the very best people in place to move forward, finding and unlocking the talent they need to grow and succeed.
All talent solutions include the sourcing, management and development of workforces, leading to the creation of high-performing teams. As an outsourced provider, a talent solutions company is different from recruitment agencies due to the scale of the projects they handle and their wider remit to look at solutions in areas such as retention; equality, diversity, inclusion and belonging; or employee value proposition.
There are several reasons why organisations choose to outsource their recruitment to a talent solutions company. Firstly, doing so will free up time to concentrate on other, more strategic objectives instead of spending hours managing the recruitment process.
Talent solutions companies will also have access to a pool of candidates who perfectly fit the available roles, something the recruiting organisation may not have. Furthermore, companies often lack the HR experience, or have too small a HR team, to take on the role of talent solutions experts.
A talent solutions company can provide support to organisations, improving their internal recruitment processes and identifying areas for improvement. All these benefits will lead to a faster and more cost-effective hiring process.
Contingent workforce and talent solutions allow organisations to access workers with the skills they need to drive their business forward and stay ahead of the competition. Talent solutions companies can access contingent workers at pace, bringing those critical skills to help organisations respond to their changing needs.
Access to a contingent workforce gives organisations the opportunity to work in a flexible manner, while talent solutions companies can navigate sourcing routes, access talent pools and understand sourcing rules and regulations.
Contingent workforce solutions provide end-to-end process management, enhanced technology and insight-led data. These benefits result in reduced time, risk and cost for hirers.
Talent solutions companies provide expert knowledge that helps organisations reach the best possible hiring and development decisions. They allow organisations to flourish by unlocking the full human potential of workforces by reimagining talent acquisition strategies to attract and retain talent.
Reed Talent Solutions’ services are underpinned by our purpose of improving lives through work. Our talent solutions teams will help organisations attract and retain the right talent, whether that’s through uncovering the causes of challenges in your recruitment process or re-defining your employee value proposition.
