Stop thinking about your people as  a workforce, and start thinking of them as a consumer base. Understand and improve your employee experience, and keep your talent. 

While talent attraction and engagement has always been a two-way street, there’s never been a more important time to be mindful about how you engage and retain your people.

Finding, attracting and engaging the best talent is critical to the success of your organisation.

Great organisations have one thing in common: they attract, engage, retain and delight high-performing, high-potential talent. 

If you’ve ever hired a contractor, you might have found the total cost per hour/day a surprise, especially if you engaged them via a recruitment agency.  

When it’s time to expand your team, you need to find the right person. It’s critical. 

Recruitment decisions are important decisions.

Hiring the wrong person can have a huge impact on productivity and morale, and that’s before you consider the time and cost of finding a replacement.

Organisations around the globe were forced into remote working at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, but at Heart Talent, we chose to work this way. 

Great recruitment is so much more than just a transaction. 

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in the past few years, it’s the importance of flexibility, especially in the workplace.

Every hiring moment is an opportunity to transform and upgrade your business. 

Please stop looking for unicorns!

Finding a unicorn has been a cliché in recruitment for a while now. Since well before the current candidate-driven, tight market.

Looking for elusive, unique talent in a challenging market isn’t a good recipe for success. You know this.

If you’ve ever thought about partnering with a recruiter, chances are you’ve considered the potential gains and potential pitfalls. 

Congratulations! Your talent and hard work are being recognised, and you have two employers who’d love you to join their team.

Here’s the thing: there are no set rules. There is no textbook. It goes without saying that someone is going to be disappointed at the end of this. For most people, this situation will feel a bit uncomfortable.

So you’ve decided to partner with a recruitment agency. Great! This is the first step in finding the best talent to join your organisation.

The initial conversation with your recruitment partner is an important one. A good talent partner will ask lots of questions - and not just about the vacant role you want to fill.

We know that modern recruitment is marketing.

To attract and engage the best people, you need to think like a marketer and know how to sell an opportunity to potential employees.

At Heart Talent, we believe in the power of storytelling.

Here’s the secret: Recruitment is marketing.

This isn’t a trend. It’s a core truth in the new world of work.

Forbes research shows that recruitment marketing spend is on the rise, and according to the latest Recruitment Marketing Report, 59% of employers recognise marketing as having a significant impact on their ability to hire great people.
