Our Mission Recruit Talent Faster

When we asked recruiters how many jobs the average candidates they are speaking to have had over the past two years, 44% of recruiters said candidates have had two jobs and 16% of recruiters said they have had 3 jobs. The Great Resignation may be almost over, but the job hopper economy continues!

Our Recruiter Index recently found that when asking employees what the main reason for switching jobs was, compensation was the number one reason - followed by remote work. Accommodating virtual work is key to retaining key talent!

With the 2019 average cost per hire at $4,425 and increasing turnover, the US could see a $50 billion increase in hiring costs in 2022. That’s why recruiting is such a big business - over $136 Billion to be exact. That’s a lot of hiring!

Most job seekers carefully construct their resumes and pay attention to every minute detail. But did you know that one study pegged the time that hiring managers spend reviewing a resume at 6 seconds? Keep that in mind next time you polish up your resume - your experience has to POP!

The word Recruiter comes from the French word “recroître,” meaning to grow again, from way back in 1635. Its original use was militaristic, from people responsible for inspiring others to join the enlisted ranks of armies, replenishing and growing the forces. To get to recroître from the Old French, you take “re,” meaning again, and “croistre,” to grow, which in turn comes from the Latin crēscere. Crēscere is related to the crescent moon, as the moon waxes or grows throughout the lunar cycle. So you wouldn’t think it, but recruiters and the moon are inextricably, grammatically linked.
