RPO or In-House Recruitment?

Choosing between an RPO and an in-house recruitment team depends on various factors.

While most RPO providers have in-house technology, they can also build custom solutions to fit your needs. For example, depending on your requirements, an in-house recruitment team may include an applicant tracking system (ATS) and sourcing platforms. The latter can include chatbots that automatically update your candidate’s status.

For small companies, in-house recruitment teams are the best option when hiring a small team. But for companies that need to grow quickly, an RPO is ideal.

But what is the best option for you? What will your company benefit most from? If you’re still unsure, here are some advantages and disadvantages of each.

An in-house recruitment team is more efficient and can focus on core business, while an outsourced recruiter can focus on the hiring process. And the best thing about hiring an RPO is that you’ll always have access to the best candidates.

In-house recruitment teams are cheaper, but in-house teams can be less flexible. While an OUTSOURCED recruitment team can scale faster, an in-house team will need to have many resources and will be difficult to scale.
