Many talent acquisition teams and hiring managers are also unaware of the free benefits of using a recruitment agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-access-to-a-unique-talent-network\"><strong>Access to a unique talent network<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-job-advertising\"><strong>Job advertising<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/report\/uk-hr-salary-guide-2023-24\/\">recent survey<\/a> by Frazer Jones, two thirds (65%) of HR professionals in the UK are considering changes roles in the next 12 months. Despite this, the survey revealed that the largest recruitment challenge for businesses is a shortage of candidates \u2013 followed by budget or sign off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recruitment agencies like Frazer Jones are ultimately in a much stronger position to connect you (quickly) with top talent that\u2019s right for your business through their extensive and unique candidate networks. These networks include passive and active candidates, ranging from generalists to specialists across all roles and sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The direct-hiring approach limits reach for talent acquisition teams and hiring managers as they must rely on typical channels like social media, job boards and CV databases. Employee referrals can often support hiring, but it can also prohibit diversity in your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a recruitment agency, we give you access to a diverse and unique range of candidates that will help your company innovate and grow. It\u2019s not always about \u201cculture fit\u201d, but \u201cculture add\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-employer-branding\"><strong>Employer branding<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recruiters also become advocates for your employer brand and the experience that candidates are provided. The most important thing we do is to listen to your needs, understand your business and promote the benefits of working with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can be particularly useful for those businesses who don\u2019t already have a strong employer brand that clearly highlights their culture and values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-skills-based-recruitment\"><strong>Skills-based recruitment<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We can also help you find the best talent for your vacancy using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/hiring-advice\/the-critical-role-of-skills-based-recruitment-in-modern-hiring-practices\/\">skill-based recruitment<\/a> techniques, expanding the talent pool available to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to LinkedIn,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/business.linkedin.com\/talent-solutions\/resources\/future-of-recruiting?trk=futureofrecruiting&amp;veh=futureofrecruiting\">73% of recruitment professionals say hiring based on skills is a priority<\/a>.

It\u2019s therefore important to promote jobs in the most compelling and engaging way possible if businesses want to attract and excite these candidates. Agencies can write job descriptions with a persuasive narrative that highlights the benefits of working for your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As revealed by Indeed, employers are spending an average of 37% of their time on administrative and challenging hiring tasks \u2013 which may include writing job ads. Not only will recruitment agencies give this time back, but they\u2019ll also write job ads that really work (because it\u2019s what they do).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-1024x536.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-104364\" style=\"width:450px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-1536x804.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.frazerjones.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/05\/FJ_Web-stat-blocks3-2048x1072.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When companies go down the direct-hiring route, they can be inundated with CVs \u2013 many of which aren\u2019t relevant for the role. As revealed by Indeed, 56% of decision makers say CV screening takes up a significant part of their time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recruitment agencies reduce this burden by undertaking these time-consuming tasks, then shortlist the best candidates for the role so you can interview them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-market-experience-and-expertise\"><strong>Market experience and expertise<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember that you can connect with us even if you haven\u2019t started your hiring process yet.
