Frequently asked questions

• What is the role of a talent acquisition specialist?

  Talent acquisition specialists focus on identifying, attracting, and hiring top talent for an organization. Their role includes developing recruitment strategies, managing the employer brand, sourcing candidates, conducting interviews, and collaborating with hiring managers to ensure a smooth hiring process. They often use data and analytics to improve recruitment processes and align hiring strategies with business goals​.

• How does talent acquisition differ from traditional recruiting?

  Talent acquisition is a more strategic and long-term approach to recruiting. It involves building relationships with potential candidates, creating talent pipelines, and focusing on employer branding. Traditional recruiting tends to be more reactive, focusing on filling immediate vacancies. Talent acquisition, on the other hand, aligns recruitment efforts with the company’s future growth and workforce planning needs​.

• What are the costs associated with talent acquisition services?

  The costs for talent acquisition services can vary depending on the scope of the engagement and the level of service required. Providers may charge a flat fee, a percentage of the new hire’s salary, or a retainer fee for ongoing services. It's important to discuss and understand the fee structure upfront, including any additional costs for services such as employer branding, talent market research, or specialized recruiting campaigns​.
