Struggling with high staff turnover?
Are potential hires vanishing from your recruitment process?
Spending countless hours screening applications with little to show for it?
These telltale signs often point to a deeper issue: a leaky recruitment process.
Hourly workers serve as the backbone of countless businesses, ensuring smooth operations day in and day out.
Yet, retaining these indispensable team members has become a daunting challenge for many companies.
The critical role of frontline staff
Your frontline staff play a pivotal role in your organisation.
They fuel performance, drive profitability, and foster growth.
They are also often the first point of contact with your customers and are responsible for maintaining the day-to-day operations.
In essence, they are the lifeblood of your business.
The old-school approach
Traditionally, many companies have relied on an old-school approach to fill these critical roles: hiring to plug gaps.
While this approach may seem like a quick fix, it often leads to long-term problems.
High turnover rates, dwindling team morale, and a growing pool of unfilled positions can result from this short-sighted strategy.
Moreover, the impact of a subpar hiring process, including negative Glassdoor reviews, is amplified in the context of high-volume frontline recruitment.
