CBI Group has launched a new service, talentSOURCE, a suite of talent solutions designed to solve hiring challenges.
This new recruitment sourcing service was developed after considerable feedback from clients regarding difficulty sourcing top talent for hard to fill jobs, the company reported. TalentSOURCE offers customers five levels of sourcing and pipeline development services for a specific position or a number of positions.
As the economy improves, potential candidates have options, are well paid, and aren’t putting themselves or their experience out on the web as much; in turn, making sourcing talent more difficult. TalentSOURCE has been developed to help businesses reduce time-to-fill, improve quality of hires, and identify top talent for hard-to-fill opportunities, according to a CBI release.
When examining hiring trends, it’s no surprise that the shift in the job market towards the candidate is affecting some of the most critical metrics. According to Indeed’s Time to Fill report in January, when businesses fail to fill a job opening within the first month, there is a 57 percent chance that the position will remain open for three months or more, CBI reported.
Additionally, more often than not, passive candidates, or those candidates who are employed and generally happy, are the most talented and desired professionals, making a strategic sourcing plan increasingly important, a CBI release stated.
CBI Group is a recruitment solutions company that serves customers nationwide from their Newark, DE headquarters.
“Given the scarcity of talent and the importance of that talent to the strategic directions of our customers, we saw an opportunity to provide another service option,” says CBI Group President, Chris Burkhard. “We find that time and resources in recruitment are often stretched thin and that new ways of identifying candidates like talentSOURCE giveleaders another lever to pull when needed.”
