Recruitment Process Outsoucing providers can be an extension to a company’s Human Resources or Resourcing function. They will sit on the site with clients and provide a complete hiring solution. An Recruitment Process outsourcing provider is able to deliver the required staff, technology and methodology to fulfill a client’s hiring needs.

Outsourcing solutions for recruitment can be delivered either on-site by a team that acts as an extension to the client’s talent acquisition group, or off-site by a combination of both. They are available across country-aligned or multi-regional remits.

A company can outsource all or part its permanent staff to an external provider through Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO).

According to the Recruitment Process Outsourcing Organization (RPOA), recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), is a type of BPO where an employer outsources all or part of its recruiting processes to an outside service provider. Recruitment process outsourcing providers can either provide their own staff or take over the company’s technology, methods, reporting, and staff. Recruitment process outsourcing is different from staffing companies or contingent/ retained search providers in that the provider takes over the design and management and results.
