With the survey by the British Chambers of Commerce highlighting today that recruiting new employees takes too long and is too costly, this is particularly true for smaller companies because recruitment places extra demands on limited resources in an already challenging economic climate.
With 80% of the companies responding that recruitment is a great challenge in managing their workforce, founders of www.staffbay.com, a revolutionary, interactive and fully on-line recruitment platform, are urging the UK’s SME’s to investigate alternative approaches.
Tony Wilmot/Elliot Kidd founders of staffbay comment “UK businesses are spending over £2billion a year on recruitment agency fees and nearly £700 million is being spent annually on advertising. staffbay can save businesses on average 88% in recruitment costs , one of the most expensive overheads.”
staffbay.com enables candidates to upload a “CMe” instead of a CV, with video, personal profiles and certificates. This allows greater searchability for employers to connect the right candidate to the right job and enables employers and candidates to interact online throughout the complete recruitment process, from initial introduction through to checking references, job offer and acceptance.
Tony / Elliot adds “staffbay gives employers and candidates the ability to interact online throughout the complete recruitment process, from initial introduction through to checking references, job offer and acceptance, again creating huge time savings and as we all know in business, time is money.”
