3. Interviewing: Conducting initial interviews to assess candidate fit and skills.

4. Coordination: Scheduling interviews, coordinating feedback, and managing communication with candidates.

5. Onboarding: Assisting with the onboarding process, ensuring a seamless transition for hired candidates.

Why do companies use recruitment process outsourcing?

Companies choose RPO for several reasons:

1. Expertise: RPO providers bring specialised knowledge and experience, improving the quality of hires and reach to specific talent pools.

2. Cost-Efficiency: Outsourcing reduces overhead costs related to recruitment, like in-house recruiters, advertising and technology.
