BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - December 9, 2010) - Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company (
While RPO clearly isn't for every organization, the report found that, among those pursuing such partnerships, 77% indicated that they would recommend it to peers. Those that performed the best worked with their provider by establishing accountability and clear measures of success, evaluating performance, and ensuring access to hiring managers and other interested parties within the company. According to Jayson Saba, Research Analyst and author of the report, "In order for an outsourcing relationship to achieve top results, the provider must become a close partner to the organization. Every company has different talent needs and different internal cultures, and the better the RPO provider is able to understand those intricacies the better they will be able to serve the client. This means putting channels of communication in place between the hiring managers, internal HR, and the vendor organization, as well as maintaining transparency into ongoing performance."
