Talent Selection and Recruitment is critical to growing businesses.

“Hire for attitude, Train for skill” – Tom Peters

Talent selection and recruiting the right person is critical to any business seeking growth, but your business in particular.

Recruitment and selection has an important role to play in ensuring improved performance and contribution to positive organisational outcomes.

Recruiting the right person for a specific role and people who collectively add value is pivotal in shaping the effectiveness and performance of your business.

Talent identification, and the recruitment and selection of employees are fundamental to the functioning of an organisation, and there are compelling reasons for getting it right first time.

Inappropriate or biased selection decisions increase costs, reduce business performance, organisational effectiveness, invalidate reward and development strategies, are frequently unfair on the individual and can be challenging for managers who have to deal with employees who are unsuitable for either the business or their role.

At each stage of the recruitment process there is a potential cost and risk to your business, more so if you get it wrong. The CIPD estimates the average cost of recruiting the wrong person to be £8,200, rising to £12,000 for senior managers or directors.
