Thank you for approaching me for advice on your client’s HR outsourcing industry, specifically on recruiting. Here are my practical and actionable recommendations to help your client overcome this challenge:

1. Employee Referral Program – Encourage the existing staff to refer their friends and family to join the company. They could offer a reward or recognition for successful referrals.

2. Social Media Recruitment – Your client can leverage social media platforms to recruit candidates. They could create a company page, post job openings, and engage with potential candidates. LinkedIn and Facebook are great examples of social media to consider.

3. Job Fairs – Attend or host job fairs to reach out to potential candidates. This will give your client the opportunity to showcase their brand and interact with potential hires. They could also offer on-site interviews to qualified candidates.

4. Career Page – Build a career page on your client’s website. This will provide information about job openings, company culture, and employee testimonials. The career page will help attract candidates that fit with the company’s culture.

5. Applicant Tracking System – Implement an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to streamline the recruiting process. ATS like Lever or Jobvite help manage and organize job applications, track candidate progress, and provide analytics.

6. Employee Value Proposition – Develop an Employee Value Proposition (EVP) that outlines what the company offers to employees. This includes work culture, benefits, career development, and other perks. An EVP helps to attract and retain top talent.

In conclusion, these recommended strategies, if executed effectively, can help your client overcome their recruiting challenge. Start with the easiest to implement and then add on other strategies as needed. Good luck!
