AVOIDING THE STAGGERING COSTS OF A BAD HIRE

Posted on 9th September 2024

According to research from the Recruitment & Employment Confederation, UK businesses aren’t hiring the right person for 2 in every 5 jobs! The costs for these mistakes can also be staggering, with a bad hire for a management level salary of £42,000 costing a business over £130,000 once all associated costs become apparent! But there’s a way to safeguard against this. All recruiters like to present themselves as unique but not many genuinely tread a different path. At Netbox Recruitment, our approach is built around preventing poor hires. Keep reading to discover how we can help you avoid these eye-watering hiring costs.

HOW DOES OUR APPROACH TO RECRUITMENT SAFEGUARD AGAINST BAD HIRES?

PROVEN PARTNERSHIP APPROACH

With the objective of forming long lasting relationships with clients, we make it our mission to identify your business culture. We meet our clients in person and on-site to fully understand their organisation. Only then can we attract candidates that not only have the right qualifications, but also the ideal personality and aspirations. We aim to be an extension of your organisation, becoming your brand ambassador in the local job market.

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY

Many recruitment agencies and direct advertising approaches can leave you bombarded with countless unsuitable CVs. However, we work hard to attract and select a refined selection of candidates in-tune with your vacancy and the working culture of your organisation. All of our candidates presented for interview can of course do the job, but, crucially, they also want the job!

EXPERTISE IN STRATEGY

We have the expertise not only to fill current vacancies, but also to advise on the best approach to your overall hiring strategy. We look at key areas of your strategy including defining your corporate culture, assessing the candidate experience, looking at interview best practices and on-boarding processes. With such a holistic broader view, we can dramatically reduce the chance of a bad hire for your team.

ON-BOARDING & AFTER-CARE

Unlike many other recruiters, we’re known for our thorough after-care process. We touch base with you and your new hire at key milestones as they begin their new position in your business. Not only does this approach work fantastically on its own, it also sits perfectly alongside your own expertly developed candidate on-boarding processes.

TALENT GUARANTEE

Lastly, we’re so confident in our ability to attract the right candidate for each and every position that here at Netbox Recruitment we offer a “Talent Guarantee” - we will recruit again at no cost if any candidate falls short of your expectations in line with your company probation period allowing you to hire with confidence whilst allowing your new hire the time to settle in and flourish within your organisation.
