Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)
What is RPO?

youtube-video-thumbnail

Watch the video above to find out how it works, who it's for, and why it may be right for you.

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a solution where organizations transfer part or all of their recruitment to an external provider. Acting as an extension of your HR team, RPO providers handle talent acquisition strategies, sourcing, screening, and hiring, allowing you to focus on core operations while attracting top talent.

For industries like engineering, manufacturing, aerospace, food and beverage, and life sciences, RPO providers bring specialized expertise and networks to address complex hiring needs, ensuring quality hires in competitive markets.

RPO is a flexible, cost-effective alternative to traditional recruiting methods, ideal for companies filling multiple roles. We call it Recruitment Process Ownership because we take full responsibility to fill your vacancies quickly, so you can focus on what you do best.

  • Established talent network

  • Proven recruitment process

  • Arsenal of effective tools

  • Targeted marketing strategy

  • Professional job descriptions

  • Screening services

  • Administrative support

  • Boosted brand awareness

Outplacement Services

Helping Companies Change Faces and Employees Face Changes

What is Outplacement?

Outplacement is a service offered by employers as an employee benefit during a layoff, termination, reduction in force, or downsizing situation. The purpose is to help employees QUICKLY obtain an exciting new opportunity, thus avoiding much of the emotional trauma and insecurity that comes along with losing your job.

Spectrum Outplacement offers personalized, one-on-one job-search coaching! Our experts assist with resumes, professional profiles, and tailored job-search plans. Our optimistic approach helps navigate the "when, where, who, hows, and huhs" of today’s evolving job market. Outplacement lowers unemployment costs for companies while providing employees with mental stability.

At the end of the day, we are a group of humans who love what we do and make every effort to insert humor, joy and lightheartedness into what can be an emotional and exhausting time.

Please contact us with questions.
