Peter,

Thanks for the welcome! In the field of outsourcing our focus is RPO or Recruitment Process Outsourcing. We can assume the recruiting function, to whatever degree the client requires, including both exempt and non-exempt employees. Further, we are equipted to apply whatever testing and assessment instruments are needed.

In your opinion, would your site be a good place for this type of service? In checking your site I didn't see a category for services like ours. Interested in your thoughts.

BIZAL,

Thanks for the contact! You are correct that the outsourcing field is a broad and rapidly changing one. Our focus is in the area of RPO, or Recruitment Process Outsourcing. We are able to assume all or part of a clients staffing/recruiting function for both exempt and non-exempt employees.

Regarding best practices, two things come to mind that have to take place to make any outsourcing project a success. One, the client MUST be able to make a paradigm shift away from the old "customer-vendor" relationship to the more effective "partnership" arrangement. Sounds simple but most outsourcing deals fail to meet either parties expectation because of this failure. Two, outsourcing requires that the client have a "project manager" who can manage this new type of relationship. Many companies do not have people that possess this skill set. It requires someone who has or can make the shift mentioned in "one."

Hope this info is helpful. Thanks again for you response.

Kathy
